Ben Quinones AP Chem Mr. Perry 25 January 2013 Molar Mass by Freezing Point Depression Conclusion: My Lab unsuccessfully found the molar mass of the unknown given to us in the lab. We were tasked with finding the molar mass of an unknown compound using the colligative property of Freezing Point Depression. The way we did this was first finding the temperature at which ice crystals form for just regular BHT. Luckily thanks to our TA we were given temperature probes so we could pinpoint exact

an Unknown Liquid (2-butanol) Through Fundamental Analysis Lee Billips Department of Chemistry‚ Shippensburg University‚ 1871 Old Main Drive. Shippensburg‚ PA‚ 17257. Abstract: The identification and characterization of unknowns are an important part of organic chemistry. It is fundamental to know experimental methods to deductively identify compounds (1) . The determination of unknown #6 (2-butanol) was identified by a series of test; first taking the boiling point (94-96 C)‚ performing

Title: Boiling Red Water Materials: Water A clear glass or plastic cup Food Colouring (Optional) 1/4 cup Vegetable Oil 1 tsp Salt Procedures: Fill a glass 3/4 full with water Add 5 drops of food colouring Add the oil Add salt How it works: The salt brings the oil down with it as it sinks to the bottom of the bottle. When it reaches the water‚ the salt dissolves and the oil is then free to float back to the top. NOTE: this is not originally

Purpose: a) Determine the melting points of two organic compounds known to have the same melting range when pure. b) Determine the mixture melting point of a mixture of the two pure compounds. c) Identify an unknown organic compound by determining its melting point and mixture melting point. Procedure and Observations: Using the procedure outlined in Appendix A of the Lab Manual‚ approximately equal samples of p-Nitrophenol and acetanilide‚ which are known to have the same melting range

Synthesis of 1-Bromobutane from 1-Butanol Reference: Discovering Organic Chemistry in the Laboratory; John R. Ganson Ph. D‚ Revised 2011 by Alfredo Mellace Ph. D www.Aldrich.com Purpose: To synthesize 1-bromobutane from 1-butanol via SN2 reaction. Alcohols are converted into the alkyl halides adding an aqueous solution sodium bromide. The sulfuric acid acts as a catalyst in converting the OH functional group of butanol‚ to a better leaving group. In order for this reaction to synthesis 1-Bromobutane

Lab Protocol #8 - Dehydration of 3‚3-dimethyl-2-butanol KEYWORDS: alkenes‚ E2‚ E1‚ carbocation stability‚ elimination A. Introduction. The dehydration of alcohols is an ELIMINATION reaction that is commonly used to form alkene molecules. The mechanism for the dehydration of alcohols consists of transforming the –OH functional group into a better leaving group by using a strong acid to protonate the alcohol. After –OH has been transformed into –OH2+‚ it becomes easier to break the σ-bond between the

Comparison of Three Isomers of Butanol SCH 4UI Abstract The Hydroxyl group on alcohols relates to their reactivity. This concept was explored by answering the question “Does each alcohol undergo halogenation and controlled oxidation?” . Using three isomers of butanol; the primary 1-butanol‚ the secondary 2-butanol and the tertiary 2-methyl-2-propanol‚ also referred to as T-butanol‚ two experiments were performed to test the capabilities of the alcohols. When mixed with hydrochloric acid in

Results My unknown sample was number 18. I did three melting point trials‚ which resulted in a melting point range of approximately 120°C to 122°C‚ as shown in Table 1. I also did two mixed melting point trials using Benzoic Acid and Succinimide‚ as shown in Table 2. Percent recovery is 28.26 grams.
