Name: Leigh O’Neill Date: 10th February 2015 Lab Partner: Sinead Murphy Title: Resolution of Trans-Cyclohexane-1‚2-diamine Abstract: The experiment of resolution of Trans-Cyclohexane-1‚2-diamine was completed using recrystallization. This produced a percentage yield of 85% from a theoretical yield of 2.638g. Introduction: Enantiomers are identical and equal in their physical properties except for optical rotation which can be viewed by polarimetry. Diastereomers have different densities‚ melting

Description If you ever painted a wall‚ then‚ you have encountered toluene. Toluene has many uses‚ and it is a chemical compound we use more often than we think. In this lesson‚ we will be learning all about toluene‚ which is an organic chemical compound. !!!Toluene: Structure and Formula Have you ever used or smelled paint thinners? If you have‚ then that is how we can describe the smell of toluene. Toluene is one of the ingredients used in manufacturing many commercial products‚ like paints

27/September/2013 Experiment 3B: Fractional Semi-microscale Distillation Separation of Hexane and Toluene. Objective: The main goal of this lab is to learn how separation of binary liquid mixtures is performed. Especially when the two liquids have boiling points varying by about 30° C. Hexane can be separated from toluene in this experiment because of the difference in their boiling points. Since toluene has a higher boiling point‚ it will left at the bottom while the hexane starts to boil out and

Relative percentages have been recorded in the table below‚ and our calculations are shown on page 5.

ORGANIC CHEMISTRY LAB 2: Separation of Organic Liquid Mixtures Introduction: In this experiment‚ a mixture of two compounds‚ cyclohexane and toluene‚ was separated into fractions by the techniques of simple and fractional distillation. The individual fractions that were gathered from the distillation were analyzed using gas chromatography (GC) and used to compare the efficiencies of the two different distillation techniques. The ultimate goal of this experiment was to determine whether simple

process by which one liquid can be separated from another liquid‚ or a liquid from a nonvolatile solid. In this experiment‚ the distillations of cyclohexane and toluene mixture were carried out. The purpose of this experiment is to compare the efficiency of simple distillation versus fractional distillation for separation of a mixture of toluene and cyclohexane. The mixture was first separated using simple distillation. A simple distillation apparatus was set up and a Thermowell heater containing

when the cyclohexane burns off and mostly only toluene remains. The microscale graph seems to be accurate because it shows the large jump where the cyclohexane is burned off. To view the apparatuses used in the experiment look at the attached pictures. To compare the simple and fractional distillation‚ our GC analysis shows the samples we submitted. The first samples of our simple distillation showed that 76.21 percent of the mixture was composed of cyclohexane and 23.36 percent was toluene. The

July 14‚ 2009 Experiment 6: Fractional Distillation. Separation of Petroleum Hydrocarbons Abstract: A mixture of cyclohexane and toluene were separate from one another by fractional distillation in order to measure the composition of each fraction and prepare the sample for gas chromatography. Introduction: Distillation has been used since antiquity to separate the components of mixtures. This method has been used to manufacture different organic chemicals but the most recent application

to the receiver. Simple distillation works well when the two components boiling points have a large difference. Fractional distillation works best when the components boiling points have a small difference. The boiling point of cyclohexane is 80 degrees Celsius. Toluenes boiling point is about 110 degrees Celsius. The liquid with a higher vapor pressure is higher in concentration and would be collected first. Raoult’s law states: the vapor pressure of an ideal solution is dependent on the vapor pressure

Thus the temperature has to increase or spike to boil the remaining substance. In the case of toluene and cyclohexane‚ cyclohexane is more volatile and has a lower boiling point. Simple distillation only evaporates and condenses a liquid once where in fractional
