The mass spectrum of 2,2-dimethylpropane shows only a very weak molecular ion peak at m/z = 72. However, a large peak at mlz = 57 is seen. Suggest a possible structure of the fragment giving rise to this large peak and suggest a reason as to why this peak is so large. For the toolbar, press ALT+F10 (PC) or ALT+FN+F10 (Mac). B T U

After creating her standard curve for absorption versus the concentration (M) of FD&C Red 40, a student found that her best fit linear line for FD&C Red 40 was y = 2,681x + -0.002. Her Kool-Aid sample had an absorbance of 0.337. If 0.55 grams of Kool-Aid powder was used to prepare an 8-fl oz cup of her assigned flavor, what is the percent by mass of FD&C Red 40 in her 8-fl oz cup?
Haylee was very rushed and still needed the mp of her pure microscale unknown. She filled hercapillary tube with the proper amount of sample and placed it in the apparatus. She quickly ran themp and was dismayed when not only did the observed mp cover a 6°C range, but was also higher thanexpected. Explain what she did wrong.

The base peak in the mass spectrum of 2,2,5,5-tetramethylhexane (molecular mass = 142) is at m/z = 57, which corresponds to a composition of C4H9. Suggest a structure for the fragment that accounts for this peak and offer a reason for why this fragment is so abundant.
Exactly 10.00-mL aliquots of a solution containing phenobarbital were measured into 50.00-mL volumetric flasks and made basic with KOH. The following volumes of a standard solution of phenobarbital containing 2.000μg/mL of phenobarbital were then introduced into each flask and the mixture was diluted to volume: 0.000, 0.500, 1.00, 1.50, 2.00 mL. The fluorescence of each of these solutions was measured with a fluorimeter, which gave values of 3.26, 4.80, 6.41, 8.02, 9.56, respectively. a. plot the data. b. derive a least squares equation for the data plotted in (a). c. find the concentration of phenobarbital from the equation in (b). d. calculate a standard deviation for the concentration obtained in (c).
I extracted caffeine by using chloroform and magnesium sulfate to dehydrate the organic phase. I got crude caffeine just by solvent evaporation at room temperature. However, I wanted to conduct Raman spectroscopy measurements but I did not get the characteristic peaks. I think that it has to be whit chloroform presence due to its fluorescence. So I let the crude caffeine 24h drying at 65 degrees but still I did not get any peak. What can I use to rinse my crude caffeine extract to remove all chloroform molecules? Or what is wrong with my extraction?
