Describe and explain the possible effects on your results of the following experimental errors.

a. You allowed your chromatogram to develop too long and you couldn’t find the solvent front.

b.The lab assistant who prepared the developing solvent mistakenly used aqueous ammonia in place of acetic acid.

c.You used an opened melting-point capillary rather than a Drummond Microcap to apply the spots

What would be the effect on the reaction rate if 10 mL of DMF were used for the reaction instead of 5 mL? Why?

Expert Solution

a. You allowed your chromatogram to develop too long and you couldn’t find the solvent front.

You are allowed to develop a chromotogram too long but the solvent should not overflow the plate.if you allow it to overflow then you cant find the solvent front.

b.The lab assistant who prepared the developing solvent mistakenly used aqueous ammonia in place of acetic acid.

Acetic acid is highly polar solvent. so aqueous ammonia is generally used to elute acidic compounds. silica gel is acidic if you use ammonia it will neutralise the silia gel and you will see that your spots moved longer.

c.You used an opened melting-point capillary rather than a Drummond Microcap to apply the spots

If you use opened melting point capillary or drummond microcap, there wont be any change in the spot height. Only difference we will see is the spreaded spot in case of meling point capillary

What would be the effect on the reaction rate if 10 mL of DMF were used for the reaction instead of 5 mL? Why?

Dilution always reduce the rate of reaction. During dilution, that means if you use 10 ml of DMF instead of 5 ml, the molecules will not be close together to form the product. So, it will take more time to give the products.

describe and explain the possible effect on your results of the following experimental errors or vibrations. In each case, specify the component(s) whose percentage(s) would be too high or too low if: a.)After adding DCM to Panacetin, you didnt stir the mixture long enough. b.) during the NaOH extraction you failed to mix the aqueous and organic layers thoroughly c.)you mistakenly extracted the DCM solution with 1M HCL rather than 1M NaOH. d) instead of using pH paper, you acidify...

How would the following experimental errors affect your experimental results while separating the components of a counterfeit pharmaceutical (yield, purity or both) and explain why. A) you failed to dry the product completely. B)you used enough water to recrystallise phenacetin, however your Unknown was acetanilide. C)in experiment 1, you didn't extract all of the aspirin from DCM solution.

Briefly explain the possible effect of the following experimental errors. TLC plate procedure with drug concentration. 1. You used a 1:200 ratio of ethyl acetate/acetic acid rather than 200:1: (Note: ethyl acetate is significantly less polar than acetic acid)  2. You allowed the TLC plate to develop too long (past the point where the solvent reaches the top of the plate). 3. You used a plastic pipet rather than a thin glass spotter. 4. You labeled your plate using a...

A Witting Reaction of trans-Cinnamaldehyde Describe and explain the possible effect on your results of the following experimental errors or variations. a. The lab assistant, thinking chlorobenzene and benzyl chloride are different names for the same compound, put chlorobezene in the benzyl chloride bottle. b. There was no p-cymene available, so you used toluene instead. c. You didn't have a magnetic stirrer, so you shook the reaction mixture for a few seconds every minute or so.

Explain how each of the following errors would have altered your results. CLEARLY EXPALIN why your calculations would be high, low, or unchanged. a. The pH buffers used to calibrate the pH meter were each 0.5 pH units high (4.5 and 7.5 rather than 4.0 and 7.0 respectively). b. You decided to take the pH after each addition of 5.0 mL of NaOH rather than after every 0.5 mL during the neutralization of your acid sample. c. While using the...

Question: Explain whether the technique errors will result in high or low experimental determination of the molar concentration of CH3COOH in vinegar. 1. A student uses the pipet bulb to blow the last bit of vinegar sample from the tip into the titration flask, after the pipet is drained. 2. A student fails to clean the pipet first, After delivering the vinegar sample, the student notices a drop of vinegar clinging to the inner surface of the pipet. 3. A...
