Aim
To separate a mixture of Benzoic acid, 4-t-butylphenol and Biphenyl and to determine the percentage recovery of each
Theory
Bicarbonate ions, when added to a mixture of the three substances, will convert the carboxylic acid (in this case, benzoic) to ions. Hydroxide ions on the other hand convert Phenols to ions. This makes them soluble in the aqueous layer as ions are soluble in water. However, addition of HCl to the aqueous ionic solutions regenerates non-ionic substances which are only soluble in the organic layer.

It was then washed off with ether after the drying process was finished and allowed 5-10 minutes for the drying of the ether solution. ?M HCl was added drop wise to tube 2 to neutralization, while testing the solution with litmus paper. A boiling stick was then added to the tube and heated cautiously to bring most of the solid carboxylic acid into solution. The tube was then allowed to cool slowly to room temperature then cooled in ice. The solvent was removed and the residue recrystallized from boiling water. The tube was then allowed to cool slowly to room temperature and then cooled in ice. The crystals were then stirred and collected on a Hirsch
Identification of an Unknown Compound using Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis Lauren Tremaglio Chemistry 1011 Lab, Section 16 Instructor: Steven Belina October 3, 2014 Our signatures indicate that this document represents the work completed by our group this semester. Experimental Design and Discussion of Results The objective of this experiment was to identify an unknown compound through quantitative and qualitative analysis. In order to find the identity of the unknown compound, an initial qualitative test for solubility was performed.
The sample was then incubated at 56°C to lyse the tissue. The sample was checked every fifteen minutes and vortexed between each checking for an hour and a half until the tissue was completely lysed. The tissue sample was then again vortexed. Next 200 microliters of buffer AL was added and
The dehydration of 2-methylcyclohexanol takes place at the bottom of the Hickman still. As the Hickman still heats up within the sand bath, the products evaporate and travel higher up in the still where they condense into a liquid and fall within the collection ring, thus separating the product from the remaining water. Drierite (CaSO4) is also added as a drying agent to absorb any leftover water within the product. The purity of the product will then be analyzed with infrared spectroscopy, paying attention to OH peak if it is present. Chemical Reactions: Data and Observations: Material Volume Mol.
In the round-bottom flask (100 mL), we placed p-aminobenzoic acid (1.2 g) and ethanol (12 mL). We swirled the mixture until the solid dissolved completely. We used Pasteur pipet to add concentrated sulfuric acid (1.0 mL) to the flask. We added boiling stone and assembled the reflux. Then, we did reflux for 75 minutes.
Lab Report 5: Acetylsalicylic Acid (Aspirin) Synthesis Name: Divya Mehta Student #: 139006548 Date Conducted: November 19th 2014 Date Submitted: November 26th 2014 Partner’s Name: Kirsten Matthews Lab Section: Wednesday 2:30 L9 IAs Name: Brittany Doerr Procedure: For the procedure, see lab manual (CH110 Lab Manual, Fall 2014) pages 96-98.

Glacial acetic acid and acetic anhydride were added to the mixture while refluxing, which converted the lime colored solution into a clear mixture. The flask was cooled in an ice bath and the solution
Weighed 1 gram of NaC2H3O2 and mixed it with ionized water. Boiled 12 mL of 1.0M Acetic Acid added into a beaker containing the sodium carbonate on a hot plate until all the liquid is evaporated
Materials and Methods The chemicals used to perform this experiment were distilled water, sodium chloride (NaCl), ice,
14 vials were used for cotaining samples. When the distillation was proceeding at a moderate speed at about the wanted temperature, the receiver was replaced with a vial as the condensed vapour sample (V) and the thermometer was read. Half of the vial was filled with the sample. The stopper of the distillation flask was removed and using a dropper to collect the liquid.
For this lab we performed an electrophilic aromatic substitution through the nitration of methyl benzoate. Aromatic compounds can and do react with electrophiles under vigorous reaction conditions and in a presence of a catalyst. The stability of aromatic compounds is a result of resonance. Aromatic compounds only react with powerful electrophilic reagents and elevated temperatures because aromatic electrons are less reactive in addition reactions as formation of a carbocation intermediate entails loss of resonance stabilization. The nitration of methyl benzoate to synthesize methyl m-nitrobenzoate is an example of an electrophilic aromatic substitution because a nitro group is substituted for a proton on the aromatic ring.
In the separating funnel, the liquid was left on the retort stand for ten minutes to settle. The cover of the separating funnel was removed.
In Experiment One we will be recrystallizing Benzoic Acid from water. In Experiment Two we will be recrystallizing Benzoic Acid using a solvent pair made up of Methanol and Water. The Seven step process of recrystallization consists of adding a solid organic substance into a solvent, then dissolving the chosen solute, decolorizing the solution, filtering solids, then recrystallize the solute by slowly cooling
The developing solution was poured into a tank and was tightly covered with a glass lid, and the tank was allowed to be saturated to ensure that the solution was equilibrated in the gas phase. Silica plate for TLC analysis: A horizontal line was drawn with a pencil on the plate and it was about 1 cm above the bottom of the plate. The horizontal line was drawn faintly so as to avoid damaging the silica gel on the plate. On the horizontal line, two marks were made and one was named A and the other B. These marks were made towards the centre of the plate at a distance apart because when spots are made at the edge of a plate, the result would be an improper travel of the samples as the solvent advances on the plate.

Abstract The unknown concentration of benzoic acid used when titrated with standardized 0.1031M NaOH and the solubility was calculated at two different temperatures (20◦C and 30◦C). With the aid of the Van’t Hoff equation, the enthalpy of solution of benzoic acid at those temperatures was determined as 10.82 KJ. This compares well with the value of 10.27KJ found in the literature.
