CHEM 51LB Lecture Notes - Lecture 9: Diethyl Ether, Separatory Funnel, Miscibility
Document Summary
This equilibrium distribution is performed in a separatory funnel where two immiscible layers are observed in a presence of a solvent, in this case it is diethyl ether. The top layer is the organic layer and the bottom layer is the aqueous layer for this experiment. The idea of an extraction in a separatory funnel is based off the solubility of the mixture. Then the addition of an acid to the aqueous layer will result in the crude acidic product while the flourene will remain in the organic layer with diethyl ether. 142. 5 c ), 3- cholorobenzoic acid =(157. 1-158 c ), 3-methylbenzoic acid =(113-115. The melting ranges for the products were as follows: recrystallized product = (156. 3-157 c ) and the neutral compound extracted was. 115-15. 3 c the mixed melting point of the recrystallized product +standard ( 3- chlorobenzoic acid )= 156. 5-157. 4 c . The mixed melting point of the neutral compound+ flourene standard was 115-115. 8 c .
