    Danielle Pitter CHEM 137 Professor D’Amelia 3/1/17 Extraction of a Neutral Compound from Acid and Base Impurities Discussion: The diethyl ether solvent is nonpolar; therefore, based on the expression like dissolves like, other nonpolar molecules will dissolve in it. The 9-fluorenone is a nonpolar molecule; therefore, it will dissolve in the nonpolar diethyl ether. The benzoic acid has a polar carboxyl group; however, the ring is nonpolar. The nonpolar ring in the benzoic acid is what makes it

  • Revealing The Impurities In The Crucible By Arthur Miller

    668 Words  | 3 Pages

    Revealing the Impurities “Character is both developed and revealed by tests, and all of life is a test,” said by Rick Warren, expresses how the true nature of people are revealed through tests of character, such as community crisis or chaos like the witch trials in The Crucible, written by Arthur Miller. The Crucible expressed how the Red Scare was in the 1950s through comparing it to the witch trials. The characters that most accurately represented the effect of this chaos were Rebecca Nurse, Giles

    crystals. This was due to the impurities included in the starting product. The impurities in the solid form were filtered out of the solution through the column with methanol. These impurities could potentially include active pharmaceutical ingredients and other ingredients such as a binder to keep the tablet from falling apart, or a coating to facilitate swallowing, and also colorants. Some drugs also contain caffeine or buffering agents which can be considered impurities. The percent recovery is stated

  • 9, 10-Dihydroanthracene Lab Report

    crude was 5.3 oC, a clear indication of impurity. In addition, it was well below the literature melting point of 9,10-dihydroanthracene-9,10-α,β-succinic anhydride at 262 oC – 264 oC, which was another indication of impurity. However, the pure product had a melting point of 260.3 oC – 263.9 oC, which was much closer to the melting point of the pure product and stays within the range of 3 oC – 4 oC, which could indicate that there was still a small amount of impurity, but the product attained was close

    INTRODUCTION: Efavirenz5 (S)-6chloro(cyclopropylethylethynyl-1,4-(trifluoromethyl)-2H-1-benzoxazin-2-one) non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) and is used as part of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) for treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Emtricitabine5 is chemically 4-amino-5-fluoro-1-[(2R,5S)-2-(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-oxathiolan-5-yl]-2-(1H)-pyrimidon a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI). The drug works by inhibiting reverse transcriptase,

  • Insanity In Macbeth

    power and the consequences it has on the mind are detrimental to a person's being. Evil doings reveal the sinful soul and impurities that lie beneath. Throughout Macbeth, the characters’ morality decline as they struggle to maintain sanity. The most important theme in Macbeth is guilt and conscience because Shakespeare uses it to show the effect impurity can have on mankind. Impurity means one’s nature has been spoiled in some way by sin or crime. Whether it takes the form of ambition or greed, an impure

  • Unknown Crystals

    crystals to the crude unknown. The known melting point range for acetyl salicylic acid is 135°C -136°C. The Unknown’s melting point was slightly off at 128.6°C - 132°C. This can be due to impurities of the crystals during the purification process. There were a few steps in the experiment that may have contributed to impurities in the unknown crystals. In the beginning of the experiment, the column with alumina was used to filter the methanol/unknown mixture into a vial. It was important to add the mixture

  • Single Displacement Reaction Lab

    778 Words  | 4 Pages

    PURPOSE The purpose of this experiment is to conduct a single displacement reaction using a reactant with impurities to deduce its effects on the actual yield of the precipitate by calculating percentage yield. INTRODUCTION In chemical reactions, there are limiting reagents which control the maximum yield of products. On the other hand, excess reactants are other reactants in a reaction that are left over or remain after the limiting reagent has been completely consumed. The maximum amount of product

  • Diphenylacetyene Lab Report

    The melting point that was obtained and the literature value had a difference of 2 degrees, this explains that it has a melting point depression. The color of it was light brown, which showed signs that it has impurities. Even after recrystallization, the purified product still did not experience a melting point width, but still suffered from a melting point depression. Even its color was still the same after the cleansing process. The only positive outcome out

    it will be transferred to an ice bath, this causes the solubility to decrease. This process separates the impurities from the rest of the compound because the impurities will not crystallize as fast as the rest of the compound. Then it can be vacuum filtered to separate the desired compound from the impurities. It purifies the compound by separating the more pure crystals from the impurities.3 This process was performed during the

    INTRODUCTION: Itraconazole is a (1-(butan-2-yl)-4-{4-[4-(4-{[2R,4S)-2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(1H-1,2,4 triazole-1- ylmethyl) 1, 3 – dioxolan – 4 -yl] methoxy}phenyl) piperazin -1-yl ] phenyl} 4, 4-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-one) is member of the drug class known as anti-fungal. It is used for the inhibition of fungal cytochrome p450 enzyme “lanosterol 4 demethylase”, used in the conversion of lanosterol to ergosterol, which is a main sterol in fungal cell membrane, thus inhibits

  • Naoh Reaction Lab Report

    80°C-74°C which indicates that it is 9-fluorenone, when in reality it is phenanthrene, however, this is possibly due to the presence of impurities as well as observer error when taking the melting point. Since these melting points are crude, meaning they contain impurities, they are not conclusive. Recrystallization was done after extraction in order to remove any impurities and purify the acidic, basic, and neutral compounds. The percent recovery for the basic and neutral compounds are relatively high

  • Recrystallization Of Acetanilide Essay

    that was contaminated with relatively small amounts of impurities using recrystallization. The success of recrystallization was dependent on a suitable solvent being chosen and proper recrystallization technique being carried out. The solvent chosen had to have a different polarity than that of the molecule of interest. The technique used was dependent on the solubility of the solvent at higher temperature and the solubility of the impurities at all temperatures. To analyze the acetanilide product

    Another common assumption is that disabilities are linked with moral impurity and therefore sin. These interpretations are internalized and then affect the way in which people who have disabilities are treated. Even Nancy Eiesland, who was committed to changing Christian’s theological view of disability, falls into this constricted interpretation. She wrote that “In the Hebrew Scriptures, in particular, the conflation of moral impurity and physical disability is a common theme.” Eiesland

  • Recrystallizing Benzoic Acid Lab Report

    1019 Words  | 5 Pages

    Purpose/Introduction The process of recrystallization is an important method of purifying a solid organic substance using a hot solution as a solvent. This method will allow the separation of impurities. We will analyze Benzoic Acid as it is dissolved and recrystallized in water and in a solvent of Methanol and water. Reaction/Summary In Experiment One we will be recrystallizing Benzoic Acid from water. In Experiment Two we will be recrystallizing Benzoic Acid using a solvent pair made up of Methanol
