synthesize isopentyl acetate via an esterification reaction between glacial acetic acid and isopentyl alcohol‚ using concentrated sulfuric acid as a catalyst. The product was washed using sodium bicarbonate and water‚ then dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. It was then distilled using a standard simple distillation apparatus. The percent yield of isopentyl acetate was 60.39%. This may have been low due to incomplete distillation or evaporation once entering the receiving flask. The product had a distinct

We will also find out about how theoretical yield is calculated from a reaction we will create. We will also synthesize Potassium Ferric Oxalate Trihydrate (K_3 [〖Fe(C_2 O_4)〗_3]•3H_2 O) using a two step reaction. In

After that‚ out next conversion was from copper (II) oxide to copper (II) sulfate. Our last conversion was from copper (II) sulfate back to a copper metal. During each experiment‚ we will write down observations seen during the chemical reactions. Some reaction will change colors. Others will generate heat. Our goal for this experiment is to “verify

Chemistry Lab 2: Analysis of Alum Lab Objective: In this lab we will analyze alum by two techniques in order to verify its identity. The melting point and the mole ratio of hydrated water to anhydrous aluminum potassium sulfate will be determined. Lab Procedure: 1. Use a mortar and pestle to crush alum. 2. Pack the alum in capillary tube‚ and then fasten it to the thermometer. 3. Fasten the thermometer to the ring stand. 4. Immerse the bottom of the capillary
