Krista Jinks CH 211L Section F 10/27/14 I. Abstract: The objective of this experiment was to analyze analgesic tablets by TLC to determine what analgesics they contain. The analgesics that could be in the tablets included ibuprofen‚ acetaminophen‚ aspirin‚ and caffeine. Through the use of TLC‚ unknown substance #62 was found to be Bayer Aspirin because it only contained aspirin. II. Introduction: 1. Briefly describe the process of Thin Layer Chromatography.

(Experiment #15) The purpose of this experiment is to determine the components of an unknown drug and identify it as one of six (6) commercial drugs by using thin-layer chromatography. I added approximately a quarter of a tablet of acetaminophen‚ aspirin‚ caffeine‚ ibuprofen‚ salicylamide‚ and the unknown (#19) to separate test tubes containing 2.5mL of dichloromethane. I noticed that my unknown was a coated tablet. Each test tube was swirled until the greatest amount of each solid was

What is Costochondritis? The purpose of this description is to educate people on non-heart related chest pain from costochondritis. WHAT IS COSTOCHONDRITIS? Costochondritis‚ also known as chest wall pain or costosternal syndrome‚ is an inflammatory condition which consists of swelling‚ pain and localized tenderness in the costal cartilage which connects your upper ribs to your sternum. One of the first indicators of costochondritis is chest pain which may be reproduced

death. Due to the level of acetaminophen in these medication they should never be taken with other medication that contain it. This could cause serious adverse reaction. Hydrocodone is another narcotic pain medication that is highly addictive‚ and illegally sold and used on the streets. Depressants like these should never be used by people who have breathing problems. Death can occur if/when alcohol is mixed with this medication. Percocet is a mixture of acetaminophen and oxycodone.

Briefing Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) is an extremely valuable analytical technique. It provides a rapid separation of compounds‚ and gives an indication of the number and nature of the components of a mixture. TLC can also be used to identify compounds by comparison with known samples‚ to check the purity of a compound‚ or to monitor the progress of a reaction‚ an extraction‚ or a purification procedure. This experiment will introduce you to the mechanics of TLC‚ and the chemical principles
