What was our objective in the Recrystallization of Impure Solids Lab?
|
To obserce the formation of crystalline solids from solution. the seperation and purification of mictrures of organic compounds in two physical states
|
The solids that were used for the recrystallization lab was?
|
Benzoic acid, Acetanilide, and Napthalene
|
What is a pure compound?
|
A homogenous sample consisting opnly of molecules having the same structure. however, somtimes can contain contaminants....
|
Other techniques for purifying solids are...?
|
Sublimation, extraction, and chromatography
|
What is the whole point in recrystalizing?
|
Dissolving the solids in an appropiate solvent allows the crystals to reform on cooling, and impurities remain in solution.
|
Almost all solids are more soluble in ______ than in ______ solvents
|
Hot, cold
|
Upper extreme is determined by ___________of a solvent while, the lower limit is by ____________
|
Boiling point, experminetal convenience
|
What are the steps required for recrystallization?
|
Selection, Dissolution, Decoloration, Formation, Isolation, and Drying
|
Dicholormethane vs, acetone
|
Dichloromethane is nonpolar, acetone is polar
|
A unknown can be determined by its physical description for example?
|
Melting points, bp, index of refraction, density, specific rotation and solubility
