Organic Lab Report Extraction Separation of a Carboxylic Acid‚ a Phenol‚ and a Neutral Substance Purpose The objective of the experiment is to identify the three substances in the mixture and to determine the percent recovery of each from the mixture. The unknown will consist of either benzoic acid or 2-chlorobenzoic acid‚ 4-t-butyl phenol. Determine the weight of crystals and also the percent yield Introduction There are various techniques of extractions‚ solid/liquid
Premium Chemistry Sodium hydroxide Ethanol
the Extraction lab is to separate and purify benzoic acid‚ 2-naphthol‚ and naphthalene. These organic solids are purified by partitioning the solid in 2 immiscible solvents‚ diethyl ether and sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydroxide. II. Significance a. The significance of the Extraction lab is to purify Acetanilide benzoic acid‚ 2-naphthol‚ and naphthalene by determining the partition coefficient. This value is determined by dividing the solubility of the given solute in the extraction solvent

Lab 5 Acid/Base Extractions Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to separate either the organic base (amine) or organic acid (carboxylic acid) from a mixture that contains inorganic impurities (salt) by performing a liquid-liquid extraction and then taking a melting point. Key Experimental Details and Observations Our starting material‚ Compound B‚ was a fine white powder and weighed 0.535g. The final product was a shiny white sheet that resembled acrylic paint and weighed 0.109g

LSM1102 Lab Report Introduction Transformation is a process which involves plasmid DNA being bound to the cell surface and the subsequent uptake of DNA by the cell (Panja et al.‚ 2008). For artificial transformation of E. coli cells with plasmids‚ plasmid DNA has to be extracted from bacterial cells using the High-Speed Plasmid Mini Kit‚ which is then mixed with competent E. coli cells followed by heat shock and the streaking of transformed cells on two different types of agar plate (LB and LB+ampicillin)

DNA extraction in Watermelon and Bananas Abstract During this experiment the researcher investigated the differing amounts of DNA present in bananas and watermelon. So that the researcher could do this‚ and accurately record the amounts‚ the researcher liquefied the fruits in a blender‚ added water and salt to them‚ and the added laundry detergent before using contact solution as an enzyme. Rubbing alcohol was then poured into the mixture and the DNA was extracted and

Extraction and Analysis of Plasmid DNA from E. coli Cells Introduction A plasmid is an extra-chromosomal element‚ often a circular DNA. Since a plasmid is by definition an extra-chromosomal element‚ it cannot make use of any origin of DNA replication in a chromosome (BP site). Meaning that DNA synthesis within a plasmid depends on having an origin of DNA synthesis of its own. Plasmids are often found in bacterial cells‚ in which they are used as transfer agents for transmitting various antibiotic

Lab Report 7: Analysis of Cereal Introduction: The objective of this lab was to consult for the FDA regarding a recently surfaced scandal involving false reporting of iron content in cereal as well as iron tablets. The makers of the cereal and the iron tablets‚ respectively‚ were allegedly reporting higher amounts of iron in their products than actually existed‚ as a way to save money but continue to provide products with “adequate” amounts of iron. The FDA needed consulting in order to analyze

Laboratory #16: Analysis of Grease in Water by Solvent Extraction Experiment Date: 2/19/10 Due Date: 2/26/10 II. Objective The goal of this lab was to determine the amount of impurity‚ in the form of oil‚ in water using the method of solvent extraction‚ also known as liquid-liquid extraction‚ a method of separating two materials with different physical and/or chemical properties. Two methods of evaporation will be used to finally determine the concentration of impurity- one using an explosion-proof
