Synthesis of benzilic acid from benzoin utilizing a multi-step reaction. Names: Arian Karim TA Name: Sayantan Das Lab Day & Time: Thursday 7:30-11:40 Lab Section #: Abstract The main purpose of this experiment was to synthesize benzilic acid from benzoin. This requires a multistep synthesis with benzyl as an intermediate product. The first step required HNO3 as an oxidizing agent and the second step required KOH and HCl. The percentage yields of benzil and benzilic acid were 59.5% and 21

Preliminary Test and Solubility Classification of Organic Compound Keene Louise Topacio‚ Christopher Jay Robidillo Abstract The experiment focuses on how to classify organic compounds by its functional groups. It is done by preliminary test and with the solubility test. Preliminary test used two known compounds also the unknowns. Physical state‚ color‚ odor‚ and ignition test were noted. The known compounds are inorganic and organic compounds. A comparison is made from the observation in the unknown

Naming Chemical Compounds General Information: Scientists all around the globe use a standard method for naming chemical compounds. The standards were set up by an international committee sponsored by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). Having this standard makes life easier for people who use these compounds everyday. It would be tough to set up any experiment if scientists everywhere used different names for the same compound. It would also make the lab a

How a Bill Becomes a Law. To make a bill into a law is written out for us in the Constitution. However the Constitution only gives you an idea of how to make a bill into a law. It gives you a broad perspective of how to approve a bill and what to do for approval. Most of all the all bills are looked at on a subjective form‚ thus meaning that whoever creates the bill‚ approves it and or veto’s it‚ is all on a someone’s opinion. To give you a short brief idea of how a bill is processed it must

lab‚ caproic acid was synthesized in a multi-step process that involved the synthesis of three intermediates – diethyl n-butylmalonate‚ potassium n-butylmalonate‚ and n-butyl malonic acid respectively. An IR was used to characterize the starting material‚ n-bromobutane‚ and the first intermediate‚ diethyl n-butylmalonate; while IR and NMR were used to characterize the final product‚ caproic acid. Reactions‚ Mechanism and Theory Caproic acid a.k.a n-hexanoic acid is a carboxylic acid derived from

"Separation of Powers" Separation of powers is the act of separating of responsibilities of the three branches of the government. The idea of this separation is not a new one either. John Locke originally talked about it. He stated that the legislative power should be divided between the King and Parliament in England. Another man also spoke about this separation‚ the French writer Montesquieu‚ who wrote about it in 1748 in his book De l’esprit des lois. His point was that liberty is most effective

Vol. 1 ACETIC ACID 115 ACETIC ACID 1. Introduction Acetic acid [64-19-7]‚ CH3COOH‚ is a corrosive organic acid having a sharp odor‚ burning taste‚ and pernicious blistering properties. It is found in ocean water‚ oilfield brines‚ rain‚ and at trace concentrations in many plant and animal liquids. It is central to all biological energy pathways. Fermentation of fruit and vegetable juices yields 2–12% acetic acid solutions‚ usually called vinegar (qv). Any sugar-containing sap or juice can

The Compound Light Microscope Commonly binocular (two eyepieces)‚ the compound light microscope‚ combines the power of lenses and light to enlarge the subject being viewed. Typically‚ the eyepiece itself allows for 10X or 15X magnification and when combined with the three or four objective lenses‚ which can be rotated into the field of view‚ produce higher magnification to a maximum of around 1000X generally. The compound light microscope is popular among botanists for studying plant cells‚ in
