Calculate the mole percentages of acetone an water in both the receiving flask and the still pot using the refractory indices found. Do these findings support that you have successfully distilled the two components? pure acetone 1.358, pure water 1.333, fraction 1: 1.361, fraction 2: 1.365, fraction 3: 1.3325. Thank you!!
Refractive index of the sample depends on the temperature and the wavelength of light used. If the refractive index of ythe distillate is same as that of pure acetone then we can be sure that the distillate is pure acetone. Here the refractive index of the liquids in fraction 1 and 2 is almost identical to that of pure actone wheras the component in fraction has a refractive nindex of 1.33 which is refractive index of water. This indicates that fraction 1 and 2 contains acetone and fraction 3 is water. These findings support successful distillation of the two components.

1. Procedure A. Lithium 2,6-dimethylphenoxide. In a 300-ml. flask, equipped with a magnetic stirrer and a reflux condenser and flushed with nitrogen, are placed 150 ml. of toluene (freshly distilled from sodium), 1.40 g. (0.202 mole) of lithium metal (Note 1) and 25.0 g. (0.205 mole) of resublimed 2,6-dimethylphenol. The mixture is heated under reflux with stirring for 36 hours; a nitrogen atmosphere is maintained for the reflux period (Note 2). The condenser is replaced by a distillation head with...

Q: Calculate the expected mass of both methyl salicylate and
aspirin assuming 100% yield.
EXPERIMENT7 PREPARATION OF PHARMACEUTICALS Fischer Esterification Reactions Almost 2500 years ago, physicians such as Hippocrates recommended that patients chew on the bark of the willow to alleviate pain. The active ingredient in willow bark was found to be salicin, a compound made of a molecule of salicyl alcohol bonded to a p-D-glucose molecule. In the stomach, the bond between...
