compound. Another source of error could have occurred when the experimenter was extracting the aqueous solution from the organic compound. If some of the organic solution was taken out with the aqueous solution it would have caused there to be impurities in the other solutions (decreasing their melting points) and it would have lowered the percent recovery in the organic solution. Additionally another error that could have attributed to a lower percent recovery was if the experimenter lost…
My project is how recycled water, tap water, and distilled water affect plant growth. I chose this project because if anyone would like to grow plants they would want to know which water makes their plants grow the biggest and tallest. The reason I chose this project is because I would like to learn more about plant growth and how different types of water would affect it because then I could grow multiple types of plants and get bigger plants then ones watered with tap or distilled water. My…
The weight of the Barium Sulfate precipitate could be caused by factors such as time, impurities and experimental errors. The lab session was only 3 hours long, which is insufficient time for obtaining multiple readings on the precipitation of Barium Sulfate which could give a more accurate and consistent result. Impurities could also affect the weight as not washing the precipitate thoroughly to remove impurities will lead to a lower percentage purity and a greater yield of the precipitate.…
Will determine how much solute was in methylene Cl b. Find amt. solid that was dissolved c. K= g solute methylene Cl/ g solute H2O D. Use of Extraction to Isolate Neutral Compound from Mixture containing Acid or Base Impurity Isolating Neutral Compound from Mixture with Acid impurity 1. Add .15 g unknown mixture to centrifuge tube with cap. Add 4 ml diethyl ether (ether) to tube and shake until solid is completely dissolved. 2. Add 2 ml of 1 M NaOH to tube and shake – 30 sec. a. Layers should…
Contamination is the presence of an unwanted impurity in a material.Contaminated water can be a source of deadly diseases, such as cholera and dysentery. Cholera an infectious disease that can cause severe watery diarrhea, dehydration, and death. Dysentery is an inflammation of the intestines, especially the colon, that often causes severe diarrhea with blood or mucus in the feces. Impurity is the quality or condition of being impure. particle is a minute fragment or quantity of matter.…
social status in your next life. In order to achieve a higher existence, you must fulfill your ethical duty. The duties that people must fulfill vary from social statuses but are mainly personal. Ethical duty mainly focuses on eliminating sin and impurities in an attempt to reach a greater goodness. When the time comes to die and the soul leaves behind its physical form, the soul begins samsara, the continuous cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, once again. All beings travel this path in an…
The author Charles J. Moore, is an internationally recognized expert on marine plastic pollution, mentioned that it’s so hard to recycle plastic especially that plastic melt at low temperatures. Consequently the impurities dose not vaporized; however, even if the impurities does vaporized it won’t make any difference it would still causing pollution (Moore). Charles J. Moore went 10 times to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch (“one of five major garbage patches drifting in the oceans north and…
and 49.19% of the unknown (H:7), which is a reasonable percentage. Whenever recrystallization takes place, there are some risk factors involved. One risk factor is that some of the sample will be lost due to the filtering of the impurities. By filtering out the impurities, only the pure sample remains. Another risk is that you could lose a little of the pure solute, because of the solvent that is used, which could lead to the loss of a 100% pure solute. Recrystallization is an appropriate…
Aims: The objectives of this experiment are to carry out the process of synthesising aspirin and reinforce both the skills of recrystallisation and melting point determination. In this experiment, we are supposed to measure the amount of aspirin collected to calculate the percentage yield of aspirin. Apart from that, we are also required to find the melting point of aspirin. Introduction: 1.1: aspirin Aspirin, also known as acetylsalicylic acid, is an aromatic compound containing both a…
content within the ocean. In this project, the chemical compound known as Aluminum Sulfate will be tested to see how well it can be used as a filter to Mercury within the Earth’s ocean. This is because Aluminum Sulfate combines with impurities in water, and makes the impurity a bigger solid to be extracted easier. Furthermore,…
