Organic chemistry lab question
a. Calculate the partition coefficient of benzoic acid from the following data: 1g of benzoic acid was dissolved in 30mL water and 30mL toluene. evaporation of 1mL toluene yielded 0.030g of benzoic acid.
b. Assume you dissolve 1g of benzoic acid in 30mL water, and wish to extraxt as much benzoic acid form water as possible. Is it more producrtive to extract: i) once with 60 mL toluene ii) twice with 30mL toluene. justify your answer

Organic chemistry question
4. Benzoic acid is almost 12 times more soluble in dichloromethane than in water at room temperature (the distribution coefficient (K) is 11.7). a) Approximately how many grams of benzoic acid would be recovered in the organic layer if 10.0 g of benzoic acid dissolved in 100 mL of water was extracted with 100 mL of dichloromethane? Show calculations. b) Approximately how many grams of benzoic acid would be recovered if the water layer was extracted a...

Organic Chemistry Lab question In the experiment we did acid-base extractions to find impurities. The impurity was either benzoic acid (acid) or 4-chloroaniline (base) So in this experiment we did Acid-Base extraction with an unknown compound. So we had an unknown of 0.150 grams and mixed it with 20 mL of diethyl ether. We placed this in a separatory funnel and added 2mL of 1.0 NaOH solution to the separatory funnel and placed the stopper over the top of the...

Question: In the general chemistry lab, students synthesize
aspirin from salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. In the lab,
students use sulfuric acid as a catalyst, but I want to consider an
alternate method for synthesizing aspirin using sodium acetate as a
catalyst:
a. Draw the structure of sodium acetate. Is sodium acetate a
stronger or weaker base than sodium hydroxide (NaOH). Explain. (1.5
pts)
b. Consider the structure of salicylic acid. It contains two
potentially...

Multistep Synthesis: Synthesis of Amine (Organic Chemistry
Lab)
Question
1. Explain each step of reaction mechanism. (How does it
work?)
2. Discuss reason for reaction sequence. (Why must one reaction
occur before another?)
3. Explain how IR supports the major product.
Experiment Procedure
Imine Formation:
Weigh a 20 mL beaker and then add 380 mg of ortho-vanillin and
268 mg of para-toluidine. Care should be taken to add equivalent
molar amounts of the two reactants.
Observe the mixture and record...

Exercise 2 Separation of a Mixture Based on Acid-Base Properties One purpose of this exercise is to learn how to use a separatory funnel to extract a single component away from other compounds in solution. To do so, we will apply the principles of solubility and acid-base behavior you’re seeing in class. One of the compounds is neutral in the acid-base sense. It has no ability to either donate or accept a proton from an aqueous solution, and will remain...
