    Abstract: The Grignard reaction was successfully accomplished. An amount of 1.20 ml of 2-methyl-2-pentanol was collected, and 9.60% yield was calculated based on the theoretical yield. Despite the low amount of 2-methyl-2-pentanol, its identity was confirmed by comparing the experimental refractive index and infrared spectrum to the literature refractive index and infrared spectrum of 2-methyl-2-pentanol. Statement and purpose The purpose of this experiment is to synthesize a specific alcohol…

    According to Regis, the reason why there were two layers is because the two compounds in the solution were immiscible. This means that they don’t dissolve each other. Therefore the aqueous solvent will sit on top and the solvent that is immiscible with water, the organic solvent, will sit on the bottom. The reason why the percent recovery wasn’t higher was because maybe not all of the upper aqueous layer or all of the organic layer was extracted all the way. If some of the upper layer was mixed…

    spots surfacing near the surface of the crust. Examples of these hot spots manifest themselves as volcanoes, geysers, and hot springs. After the heat reaches the surface the naturally-occurring hot water and steam can be trapped by energy conversion. This then allows us to convert the heat energy from the water…

    General procedure: One equivalent of spacer was coupled using 2.4 equivalents of inhibitor, 0.18 equivalents of copper sulfate, 0.36 equivalents of (+)-sodium-L-ascorbate, in a mixture of 10% H2O in DMF, 24 mL/mmol spacer. The mixture was placed in the microwave for 30 minutes at 80oC Pro6 Spacer (10) (30 mg, 0.036 mmol) and 18 (36 mg, 0.087 mmol) were dissolved in 778 µL DMF. Copper sulfate (1.62 mg, 0.006 mmol) and sodium-L- ascorbate (2.57 mg, 0.013 mmol) were dissolved in 86 µL H2O. The two…

    Powdered milk. Whole milk is the baseline comparison since it is the milk that has been tempered with the least. The 2% and 1% milks have had most of their fat removed. Powdered milk goes through an evaporator, removing most of its butterfat and ¾ of its water. Both 2% and 1% went through another process in which fat was removed from the milk after placing it into a “centrifugal separator” (Christine Gallory, 2015). Hypothesis: If different types of milk were to go through the curdling process,…
