    “Acid/Base” lab’s purpose was to introduce extractions of one of the four neutral organic compounds (4-chlorobenzophene, biphenyl, trans-stilbene, and trans-chalcone). We then were asked to test the solubility of our selected neutral compound with hexane, water, methanol, and ethyl acetate to find the solvent that only dissolved the neutral compound while introduced to heat. Once the solvent was chosen, we purified the compound by recrystallization, and then concluded that my neutral organic compound

    Separating Mixtures By Kaylan Hook and Luke Trueblood Depending on whether a mixture is homogeneous or heterogeneous, there are many forms of separation. Separating a mixture means to divide the substances into one or more distinct parts. There are multiple ways to separate a mixture. Filtration, simple distillation, liquid chromatography, and centrifugation are four ways that liquids or gases can be divided into different parts. Filtration means the action of separating a heterogeneous mixture through

    it is in the first. Also, the impurities are to be insoluble in the second solvent. Furthermore, these two solvents must be immiscible, unable to dissolve into each other. These two solvents are then mixed together then allowed to separate. This separation also allows the specific compounds to also operate into the two different layers, removing the impurities from the desired compounds. Chromatography is a term that refers to

    There are two types of distillations, simple and facilitated. Simple distillation is the simpler form of the two, it is mainly used for the separation of a liquid and a solid from a mixture, it is also used when separating two liquids that have a difference in boiling points of greater than 40ºC. Facilitated distillation is the ideal method for separation of a number of liquids within the same solution, particularly when the difference in the boiling points are less than 40ºC. In facilitated distillation

    If the starting cinnamic acid contained the mixture of cis and trans isomers, the product would be the mixture of erythro- 2,3-dibromo-3 phenylpropanoic acid and threo-2,3-dibromo-3 phenylpropanoic acid, which would result in a broad range melting point. 5.b. If 5mL of bromine solution was added, the half of the product would form. 5.c. If we used cyclohexane instead cyclohexene, the bromine excess wouldn’t be removed, thus no reaction would occur. 8a. No, the product wouldn’t be optically active

    |Activity: Ink before separation: █ The above shows a line indicating the marker Ink after separation: ████████████████████ The above roughly indicates how the colors looked after the ink separated. Introduction: A substance is form of matter that has a constant chemical composition and can’t be separated into smaller particles. Similarly, a pure substance is a form of matter composed of a single type of particle. A mixture is a combination of two or more substances that are

    Chloroplast is an organelle that is found in plants and some algae. It is a food producer of the cell. The structure is constructed by a double layer membrane, an outer and an inner layer membrane. Chloroplast contains many different pigments like chlorophyll, carotenoids, phycobilins etc. The chlorophylls are of different types. It is a very important biomolecule for photosynthesis that helps plants to absorb energy from sun light. This experiment focus on pigments quantification from chloroplast

    As previously defined, a composite material consists of two or more materials where polymers are used as matrix materials usually. These materials behave together to produce the best properties of the scaffold, duplicating the same composite features of bone. In particular, polymer- based composite scaffolds may mimic the structure of natural bone which is mainly made of HA and collagen. Showing better osteoconductivity, HA can be considered the inorganic reinforcing phase of the composite scaffold

    using the solid-liquid and liquid-liquid extraction techniques to extract a strong acid, weak acid, base, and neutral compound from a mixture. During the solid-liquid section of the experiment, 0.5 M NaHCO , 0.5 M NaOH, 0.5 M HCl, and distilled water are used to dissolve and separate the acid, phenol, and amine solutions from the mixture, leaving the neutral compound remaining. After adding 3 M HCl to the acid and phenol solutions and3 M NaOH to the amine solution, the solutions and solids formed were
