What should you do if something gets in your eye?
Remember that the first aid you give yourself is critical. Every second counts dont forget to help your neighbor- your neighbor cant see! Hold the eyelid open while flushing the eye with water from the eyewash for about 15 minutes and then see a doctor immediately.

What are the inorganic compounds used in the solubility experiment?
Water - H2O
what is the formula to calculate molality?
m=moles of solute/kg of solvent
trans-cinnamic acid
weak acid
Who should be called immediately for assistance in case of an accident or injury in the laboratory?
The lab instructor. If for some reason the laboratory instructor is away then the laboratory assistant or a staff member.
salicylic acid

Hexane
base
succinic acid
How can you eliminate the possibility of your Bunsen burner becoming a fire hazard?
It should be burning only when it is being used. It should be carefully positioned so that the flame will not burn overhanging shelves, books, paper, or its own tubing. No flammable chemicals should be in the vicinity

what ORGANIC material was used in the Distillation Lab?
Isopropyl Alcohol
n-Butyl Alcohol
Methyl Alcohol
Sec-Butyl Alcohol
n-Amyl Alcohol
n-Hexyl Alcohol
What is the melting point range of a pure sample?
a pure sample exhibits a melting point range of a one to three degree difference between the point at which the first crystal begins to melt, and the temperature at which the last crystal is completely melted.

Describe how to distinguish an open fire in the laboratory.
Discharge small fire extinguisher at base of flames slowly and systematically moving from one side to the other to avoid flashback while calling for assistance. If not immediately brought under control have fire department called while using larger back-up extinguishers and evacuating nonparticipants. Do not stay in the laboratory if fire continues to spread.
carbon disulfide
When does boiling occur?
when vapor pressure and atmospheric pressure are equal
Define Azeotrope.
a constant boiling mixture of two or more components with a definite composion usually boiling below the lowest boiling point or sometimes above the highest boilng point but never inbetween

describe step by step how one prepares a sample for a melting point.
- clamp thiele tube to a ring stand
- fill thiele tube with mineral oil 1/2 inch above side arm
- fit thermometer through thermometer adapter
- make rubberband by cutting a slice of rubber tubing
- clamp the thermometer adapter above thiele tube
- obtain 2mm sample in capillary tube
- attach capillary tube adjacent to the bottom of the thermometer
- position thermometer bulb and sample so that they are centered in the thiele tube
why was phosphiric acid used in the dehydration lab instead of sulfuric acid?
since the latter will cause charring and give off noxious fumes
n-hexyl alcohol
what is the difference between simple distillation and fractional distillation? give a scenario for which each technique is appropriate.
- simple distilation may be used if two compounds differ greatly in boiling point and thus in vapor pressure, the mixture may then be seperated into two components fairly well
- fractional distillation is used to seperate liquids when more effeciancy is need then may be obtained by simple distillation
- fractional distillation a series of simple distillations carried out at one time using a fractional column
m-nitroaniline
Why are unauthorized experiments not permissible?
No student knows for certain that an unauthorized experiment is safe. Discovered infractions will result in suspension from the lab

what are the characteristics of a good chaser solvent?
- boiling point approximately 50º higher than the product
- must not react with reactants or products
- must be easily detected

Give names of 6 common extremely flammable solvents and precautions in their use.
Diethyl ether, petroleum ether, ligroin, acetone, benzene, and ethyl acetate are six common extremely flammable solvents. Always pour these chemicals with care. When using them at your desk, be sure that all flames and spark sources in the area are turned off.
ethyl acetate
Biphenyl
neutral
t-amyl alcohol
What is the liklihood of an impure sample being a eutectic mixture?
one in a hundred
How do you calculate % recovery?
%recovery= (weight of solid/ 1 gram) X 100%
What type of clothing is safest in the laboratory
No synthetics which are not frilly or flared and do not have lose, flowing sleeves or scarves are the safest. Synthetics, in general, burn readily and stick to you on melting, causing much worse burns. Shorts and tank tops are not allowed because they do not offer much protection. Lab coasts or aprons are strongly recommend
isopropyl alcohol
What footwear is needed in the laboratory?
Low heeled, leather or equivalent, shoes with no open spaces. Open shoes permit spills to get in the feet and will not be allowed in the lab

Describe the proper way to heat a test tube and its contents
Point the test tube away from yourself and others. Oscillate the tube while gently heating to prevent “bumping”
