1.2.2. Physical Properties Methyl ethyl ketone is a clear, colourless fluid that is less viscous than water and has a somewhat acute odor that smells most of the ketones and is described by some as being similar to Boerscot. Compared with acetone it is less volatile and less soluble in water (about 27.5g / 100mL at room temperature). It is a solvent used for extracting gums and oils from plants and cleaning the remnants of metal and glass, so why often a cleaner or ingredient is found 1.2.3.…

The main purpose of this experiment is to purify an impure solid by the technique of recrystallization. This technique involves several steps, selecting an ideal solvent, dissolving the compound in a minimum amount of boiling hot solvent, filtering insoluble impurities while the solution is hot; crystallizing the purified compound, and isolate the pure compound by vacuum filtration . The unknown used in the experiment was #4, which were white crystals. In order to determine the ideal solvent…

RESULTS SOLUBILITY ANALYSIS: Ketoprofen sample was found to be soluble in ethanol, Chloroform, ether, acetone at neutral pH and is found to be almost insoluble in water. Solubility analysis is important because the drug has to dissolve in the solvents and also in the dissolution medium used. MELTING POINT DETERMINATION: The melting point of the Ketoprofen was found to be 96˚C by open capillary tube using microcontroller based melting point apparatus which is within the reported range of 94˚C…

Have you ever heard about alkaline water? Do you really know what it is? When it comes to alkaline water, you should know this water is slightly basic. It has basic minerals, including magnesium, calcium and bicarbonate. All these compounds will bind to hydrogen ions in solution, making the water more basic. Moreover, this type of water refers to its pH level, which is a number that measures how alkaline a substance is on a scale of 0-14. For example, if something will have a pH level of 1, it…

The SEM result was also in good agreement of XRD analysis. The average particle size of CuMnRC1, CuMnRC2 and CuMnRC3 catalyst was 0.675µm, 3.127µm and 7.435µm respectively. The particles of CuMnRC1 catalyst was least agglomerated, highly porous, high surface area and uniformly distributed. The choice of different precipitant in the CuMnOx catalysts leads to the change of the surface distribution of Cu, Mn and O elements, which might be related to the CO oxidation catalytic performance of the…

Introduction: DNP and research question The organic compound 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) is a crystalline solid with the molecular formula C6H4N2O5. The molecule is soluble in water to some extent and is fully soluble in sodium and potassium hydroxide solutions. The compound can also be explosive. It is usually used in dye, weed killers, wood preserver, photographic development among other things and it has even been used as a weight loss agent. In fact, it has been claimed to be the king of the…

TLC and HPTLC Introductions Thin layer chromatography (TLC) is derived from liquid chromatography where liquid serves as mobile phase and thin layer of substance on a flat late surface serves as stationary phase. The thin layer of materials act as sorbent while the mobile phase known as solvent. Solvent will send the solutes through the sorbent depends on the strength of the mobile phase as it dissolved the solute and send them up the plate against gravity ,and resistance of sorbent…

The 1HNMR of chloro (pyridine) cobaloxime (III) showed all the characteristic peaks of the product. It had very few peaks and is very tidy. This shows that the molecule has high symmetry. The large singlet peak at 2.5ppm, corresponds to the 4 methyl groups that are connected to the double bond N of the dimethylglyoxime. It integrates to 12 H’s. These methyl groups are accounted for at a higher ppm that usual. This could be due to the fact they are doubly bonded to the electronegative Nitrogen…

Cellulose derivatives The cellulose derivatives widely used in mucoadhesive formulations are hydroxyethylcellulose, hydroxylpropylmethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose and carboxymethylcellulose etc. • Hydroxylpropylmethylcellulose (HPMC): Hydroxylpropylmethylcellulose is semi synthetic, inert, viscoelastic polymers, extensively used not only for mucoadhesion properties but also for its controlled release mechanism. It has been applied to deliver various drugs via different type of dosage…

1. Synopsis The main aim of the experiment is to find out the percentage of calcium carbonate in toothpaste by using back titration since calcium carbonate is an insoluble salt and does not dissolve in water. Back titration is a reverse method of titration used to obtain unknown concentration of analyte. A roughly weighed quantity of toothpaste? calcium carbonate is dissolved in a known amount of hydrochloric acid and is then titrated against sodium hydroxide. An orange colour will be observed…
