Alvarenga Lab Partner: Keren Appiahene Mussie Gide 10 September 2016 Experiment 2: Acid- Base Extraction Separation of an Organic Acid‚ a Base and a Neutral Compound Introduction: The extraction technique is often used in the organic lab to separate organic compounds from mixtures. One type of an extraction technique is the acid-base extraction‚ which is used to separate organic compounds from a mixture based on their acid-base properties.1 There are certain principles that must be taken into account

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Amino acids bind together to form polypeptide chains‚ and these polypeptides fold and coil together into specific conformations to form proteins. There are 20 different amino acids‚ each amino acid consisting of four distinct partners. The first is a carboxyl group. A carboxyl group has very weak acids that are able to donate hydrogen ions to biological reactions. The second partner is the amino acid group. Amino acid groups act as the base which‚

1999 Adipic Acid (98/99-3) Currently operating commercial production processes for adipic acid depend on the production or purchase of KA oil (a mixture of cyclohexanone‚ the ketone or K component‚ and cyclohexanol‚ the alcohol or A component)‚ or of pure cyclohexanol‚ and its subsequent oxidation in solution to adipic acid using an excess of strong nitric acid. This report deals with KA oil/cyclohexanol production by various routes‚ followed by the common step of nitric acid oxidation. KA

Acids and Bases Mirza Hasan Mammadov Acids and bases are really important in our daily day life. So let’s start with telling the definitions of them. Starting with acids‚ they are a substance which dissociates in water in order to produce one or more hydrogen ions. Also we can write H+ instead of hydrogen ion. Bases have the same definition‚ although the difference is that it firm hydroxide ions instead of hydrogen ions. We can write OH- instead of hydroxide ion. All alkali is bases but not

Every element and compound has a distinctive melting and boiling point. When a substance reaches its melting and boiling point it will change phase. For example the molecules in a solid being heated gain energy and eventually are able to not only vibrate but

Acid Determination of Vitamin C Tablets and Salt Solutions Chem 1290-016 03-05-2010 ------------------------------------------------- Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to use acid-base titrations to find the mass percent of ascorbic acid in a Vitamin C tablet. A known concentration of sodium hydroxide was used and the value found was compared to the stated amount of ascorbic acid listed on the vitamin container. Also in this lab the acidity of different salt solutions were tested using

Acid: A chemical substance (typically‚ a corrosive or sour-tasting liquid) that neutralizes alkalis‚ dissolves some metals‚ and turns litmus red. Ionic Dissociation: Dissociation in chemistry and biochemistry is a general process in which ionic compounds (complexes‚ or salts) separate or split into smaller particles‚ ions‚ or radicals‚ usually in a reversible manner. Strength of Acids: The strength of an acid refers to its ability or tendency to lose a proton. There are very few strong acids. A

indicator‚ methyl orange‚ phenolphthalein and many more. Acids and bases are diverse in this world. They are everywhere ranging from foods to trees to rocks and many more. Indicators can be used to determine whether these substances are acidic‚ basic or neutral. Manufactured indicators are one type and the second type is natural indicators. Believe it or not‚ the majority of fruits‚ vegetables and flowers contain pigments which may be used as acid-base indicators. For example‚ Red cabbage contains within

AMINO ACIDS SUSMITA DAS SWAPNA MONDAL OBJECTIVES To study about Amino acids. To study the classifications of amino acids based on different headings. To study the functions of amino acids. INTRODUCTION Amino acids:• Amino acids are monomers of protein. • Amino acids are group of organic compounds which contain two functional groups. One is Amino group(NH2) and the other is Carboxyl group(COOH). • Proteins are broken down into amino acids on hydrolysis. • Each amino acid also have a
