Analysis

1. Provide the final mass of product after recrystallization (show Calculation). Filter paper: 0.32 g Buncher Top: 33.44 g Mass of (Buncher Top+filter paper + source) = 35.21 g Final mass = (mass of Buncher Top+filter paper + source) - (mass of Buncher Top + filter paper) Final mass of product = 35.21 g - (0.32g + 33.44 g) = 35.21 g - 33.76 g Final mass of product = 1.45 g
2. Determine the theoretical yield of the product (adipic acid) in grams and show all of your Calculations. (Note: This is done just like you learned in general chemistry starting with the mass of the limiting reactant and converting it to the mass of the product). 2.05 g cyclohexene * (1 mol cyclohexene/80.15 g cyclohexene) * (1 mol adipic acid/ mol cyclohexene) * (146.14 g adipic acid/ 1 mol adipic acid) = 3.65 g
3. Determine the percent yield of the product (show calculation). % yield of the product ( 1.45/3.65 ) * 100 = 39.73% % yield of the product is 39.7 %
4. Provide the melting point range of the product. The melting point range of the product is 147.3 ∘ C - 148.3 ◦C.
