Obtain an Erlenmeyer flask that has a vacuum opening and attach the vacuum tube to it 8. Insert funnel and rinse the funnel with distilled water 9. Turn vacuum on and pour the pink solution into the Erlenmeyer flask, the precipitate should stay on top of the filter 10. Rinse the beaker out until all residue is gone 11. Try to rinse the precipitate in the funnel until the pink color is gone 12.
White precipitate shows the presence of chloride (Cl-). Chloride anion equation: HCl(aq) + AgNO3 (aq) → HNO3 (aq) + AgCl(s). The nitrate anion test involves cooling a mixture containing 1 mL of test solution and 3mL 18M H2SO4. 2mL is poured down the inner test tube side and the presence of a brown ring shows nitrate (NO3-) to be present. The carbonate anion test mixes 1 mL of test solution and drops of 6M HCl.
Discussion & Conclusion In this experiment we learned how to synthesize the cyclohexene by dehydration of cyclohexanol. We procedure the first step where we have to mix the components. Then we heat the R.B.F with a fractionating column, distilled water. Then we obtained the layers, and we transferred the organic layer to a small, dry Erlenmeyer flask. We added anhydrous Sodium Sulfate as a drying agent.
The MgSo4 absorbed the last traces of water the ether solution. The solution was completely dry when it appeared crystal clear and MgSO4 floated in the liquid, when swirled. If solution is cloudy, more drops of MgSO4 were to be added until solution was completely dropped. 5) We decanted the solution from the solid MgSO4 into a 50 or 100 ml round bottom flask. 6) The ether was removed using the rotary evaporator.
Then 5mL of HCl was added to copper to completely remove all traces of zinc. Once the bubbling had stopped, the rest of the liquid was decanted away from the copper. Then the copper recovery set up was put together using tubing, Buchner funnel, filter paper and suction flask. Then the filter paper was weighed before placing it in the funnel and wetted down. The aspirator was turned to medium high, and then the copper was poured onto wetted filter paper.
Add a quarter spatula of copper (II) oxide and warm the solution gently to the 4th test tube and record observations. 7. To the 5th test tube, add 3cm3 of ethanol a couple of drops of conc, sulphuric acid and warm gently. Pour the resulting mixture into 30cm3 of sodium carbonate solution to remove excess acid and smell and record observations. Experiment 2 Time | Observations | 5 minutes | Bubbled like sugar | Once salt water was added | Turned soapy white and thick | Equation: METHOD 1) Put 2 cm3 of castor oil into a 250 cm3 beaker and add 10 cm3 of 5mol.dm-3 sodium hydroxide from a measuring cylinder.
Transfer the distillate via Pasteur pipet into a 15-mL centrifuge tube. Wash the distillate with two 2.5-mL portions of water, removing and setting aside the water layer at each step. Transfer the organic material to a small, dry Erlenmeyer flask, leaving behind the last drops of the water layer. Remove any drops of water that were accidentally transferred to the Erlenmeyer flask, if any, then add small amounts of anhydrous sodium sulfate as drying reagent. When the liquid is dry, it will be transparent and some of the drying agent will flow freely like beach sand.
The resulting product was [Co(NH3)5Cl]Cl2 and yield was 4.453g (.017 mol, 84.8%) Distilled water (25mL) was added to concentrated ammonia (5mL) in a 125mL Erlenmeyer flask. The reaction was heated and stirred, then [Co(NH3)5Cl]Cl2 (.0060 mol) was added to the solution. The reaction mixture was vacuum filtered, and the filtrate was cooled in an ice bath. 6M HCl was then added until the solution was neutral to litmus. NaNO2 (.0217 mol) was added to the solution and was allowed to react for five minutes.
Then proceed to decolorize with 95% ethanol until the ethanol running off the slide is clear. Briefly rinse with distilled water. Counter-stain with safranin (secondary stain) for 1 minute then rinse with distilled water and gently blot dry with a paper towel. Lastly observe slide using oil immersion with the 100x
Recrystallise the crude ester from methanol using a quantity of hot solvent approximately twice the minimum required for complete solution (This is to ensure that the phenyl benzoate does not separate until the temperature of the solution has fallen below the melting point of the ester). Phenyl benzoate separates as colourless crystals. 5. Determine the melting point of the product. Results : Yield (mass in gram) = __________________0.128 g_____________________ Melting point of pure phenyl benzoate (OC) = ___________70O______________ Melting point of your phenyl benzoate (OC) = ___________69O______________ Questions : 1.
