assignment‚ I started by looking at the ingredients in some of my personal care products. I was pleasantly surprised when looking at the information about most of these products on the EWG‚ since the hazard ratings on most of the products I use are fairly low and the biggest concern with the ingredients seems to be skin irritations. Then I started looking into other products that I use fairly regularly‚ like Febreze. Apparently Febreze contains quite a few ingredients that have been found to be toxic to

Ingredients of the Melting Pot When reflecting on a timeline of America‚ what is clear is that this nation has grown in many ways due to far-reaching ideas‚ movements‚ and historical events. Immigrants who decided to continue their lives in the United States remain as the key factor of keeping this country functioning at the prosperous rate that it is. Unfortunately‚ Immigration has always been a controversial matter in America. Nonetheless‚ the population of the United States’ composes of citizens

FOUNDATION IN SCIENCE INTRODUCTION TO PRACTICAL ORGANIC CHEMISTRY – MAKING AND PURIFYING ORGANIC COMPOUNDS Stage 1 – Deciding how much reagent to use Most organic reactions do not go to completion; most reach an equilibrium position with significant quantities of reactants still remaining. In addition‚ separating the desired product from the rest of the reaction mixture‚ and then purifying it‚ will result in the loss of more of the product. The amount of product obtained expressed as a percentage

to synthesise acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) by creating a reaction between acetic anhydride and salicylic acid. This was be accomplished through the use of recrystallization. Acetic anhydride and salicylic acid are mixed together‚ and then acidified by the addition of a few drops of concentrated sulfuric acid‚ which catalyzed the reaction. The percent yield is calculated to determine the effectiveness of the reaction in preparing the desired product (aspirin). The limiting reactant of the equation

SYNTHESIS OF THE PHARMACEUTICAL ASPIRIN (ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID) AIM: The aim for this experiment was to synthesise a small amount of aspirin with salicylic acid as the starting product and sulphuric acid as the catalyst. The product obtained from this reaction will be impure and will need to be purified. This will be done by recrystallization. We will then record the products’ melting point and calculate the yield in order to determine the degree of purity of the aspirin sample. Diagrammatic scheme for

Titration- Analysis of Aspirin Tablets Objective: Determine the percentage of aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) present in two different commercial tablets by titrating the solution with a base. Also determine whether the aspirin is a strong or weak acid according to the Bronsted- Lowry and Lewis theories and deduce the formula of the acid- base reaction. Independent Variable: The amount of base (NaOH) in moles that are needed to neutralize the solution. Dependent Variable: Percentage of aspirin (acetylsalicylic
