Acetylsalicylic Acid September 15‚ 2005 September 23‚ 2005 OBJECTIVES The objective of this lab experiment is to prepare aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) by reacting salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. INTRODUCTION This purpose of this lab was to prepare aspirin using its basic components: salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. Salicylic acid and acetic anhydride‚ along with an acid catalyst‚ react to form acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and acetic acid. In this reaction‚ the hydroxyl group

Introduction: In this lab‚ we measured the acid-base strengths of seven separate organic compounds. The lab was painless to perform‚ it consisted of adding a small amount of one of the organic compounds to a well‚ and testing the pH via testing paper. The color of the paper was then analyzed to determine what the pH of the compound was. The structures were benzenesulfonic acid‚ benzoic acid‚ benzyl alcohol‚ benzylamine‚ p-cresol‚ and p-toluidine. My initial hypothesis about the acidity/basicity

detect an acid‚ the scientists use indicators. Litmus is one indicator. An acid turns blue‚ litmus red. Acids are a group of chemicals with very similar properties. An acid is a sour-tasting substance. Lemons taste sour because they contain citric acid. The sour milk contains lactic acid while the sour taste of vinegar is due to acetic acid. Acetic acid‚ which is an ingredient of vinegar‚ releases only a limited number of ions and is not a strong acid. All these are weak acids. This is the reason why it

Effect of Protein Intake on Strength‚ Body Composition and Endocrine Changes in Strength/Power Athletes Introduction: Proteins are often called the building blocks of the body. Protein consists of combinations of structures called amino acids that combine in various ways to make muscles‚ bone‚ tendons‚ skin‚ hair‚ and other tissues. They serve other functions as well including nutrient transportation and enzyme production. Adequate‚ regular protein intake is essential because it isn’t easily

I’d research experience stories and all the facts‚ but I really just needed to try it myself! A few friends and I were sitting around playing Dead Space 3‚ when my friend Kyle told me that he could get some acid. Excitedly‚ we called his friend and asked him to bring him four hits of acid. As soon as the friend got to Kyle’s house he handed us each two hits‚ and we placed them on our tongues. Knowing that we had 30 to 45 minutes until the LSD trip began‚ we continued to play Kyle’s videogames.

Standardization of hydrochloric acid by sodium carbonate Concentrated hydrochloric acid is roughly 11 M. Pour out into a measuring cylinder about 2 cm3 of concentrated hydrochloric acid. Transfer it to a 250 cm3 flask and make up to the mark with water. Shake well. Put some pure sodium hydrogen carbonate or anhydrous sodium carbonate into an evaporating dish and heat gently over a low flame for about fifteen minutes‚ stirring continuously. Take care not to heat the mass too strongly or fusion
