is green‚ when an alcohol is oxidized by the reagent. A change in color of the reagent from orange to green represents a positive test. Primary alcohols are oxidized by the reagent to carboxylic aicds; secondary alcohols are oxidized to ketones. Tertiary alcohols are not oxidized at all by the reagent. Hence‚ this reaction can be used to distinguish tertiary alcohols form primary and secondary alcohols. Procedures: 1. Place ethanol‚ isopropyl alcohol and tert-butyl alcohol in three different

four days‚ before moving half of the rats to a new location and injecting them with a larger amount of ethanol. The rats that stayed in the same location remained relatively healthy‚ while nearly two-thirds of the rats in the new location died of alcohol poisoning. A similar experiment involving rats and morphine showed that the body can overcompensate for the expected effects of a drug when presented with a smaller dose. Rats were given relatively large doses of morphine for several days‚ and when

Experiment #5: Esterification of Methyl Benzoate from Benzoic Acid October 28‚ 2010 Abstract: This experiment was conducted to synthesize methyl benzoate from benzoic acid and methanol by using the Fischer esterification method. Methanol (12.5ml) and Benzoic acid (4.9 grams) are heated together in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid (1.5ml) until equilibrium is achieved. A reflux apparatus is set up for 1 hour to carry out the reaction at the boiling point of the solvent (Methanol
