    Intrinsic materials have a pure chemical composition without any impurities and thus have less electrical conductivity. For example a pure Si acts as an insulators as there are no free electrons in pure Si structure. Extrinsic crystals are formed when small amounts of impurities are added to intrinsic crystal structure, thus extrinsic crystals have better electrical conductivity than intrinsic crystals. The process of introduction of impurities to intrinsic crystalline structure is known as doping and will

  • Essay On Synthesis Of Aspirin

    609g which gave a low percent yield of 20.32%. The low % yield was probably due to unsuccessful recrystallization. Recrystallization shows a very reasonable way to eliminate unwanted impurities. Part 4 of this lab showed a way to observe impurities by comparing the melting point of crude and pure samples. Since impurities are to be shown in the crude sample it would have a lower melting point and larger range. The known melting point of aspirin is to be 135 oC. The crude sample had a melting point range

  • Analysis Of Acetanilide

    to form, along will a small number of impurities. As the compounds were mixed the solution turned a pale-yellow color, with white crystals of acetanilide forming in the solution as the reaction proceeded. As the solution began to heat up the crystals dissolved because the energy (as heat) was being added to the molecules of liquid causing separation between the pure Acetanilide and impurities in solution. The charcoal was then added to bond to the impurities in the solution, separating them from

    I. Chemical reactions: Consultation/reference to literature should be considered as the use of well documented chemical reactions for the synthetic route will lead to higher yields and less impurities. II. Catalysts: The use of a catalyst can be an advantage however it may generate waste that requires disposal. Some manufacturers develop a catalyst for a specific reaction however this may be time consuming. III. Starting materials availability: Availability of bulk chemicals that are cost effective

  • Preparing Benzoic Acid from Benzylalcohol

    574 Words  | 2 Pages

    Preparing Benzoic Acid from Benzylalcohol Planning (a) Problem The aim of this experiment is to synthesize benzioc acid, with the highest possible yield, by oxidizing benzylalcohol. Hypothesis We expect the percentage yield to be about 50% due to several processes such as cooling and filtering. Possible Variables - Time - Temperature (of water) - Filter Planning (b) Apparatus/ Materials - Round bottomed flask under reflux - benzylalcohol - HCl - Na2O4

  • Miniscale Recrystallization Essay

    The impurities should be insoluble in all temperatures of the solvent or slightly soluble in a cold solvent. The boiling point of the solvent should be low enough to remove the crystals. The solvent should not react chemically with the solids that are being purified. The solvent needs to have a boiling point lower than the melting point of the solids. -Dissolution – the mixture

    adverse effects caused by the impurities in bulk and dosage forms. The impurities in drugs often possess unwanted pharmacological or toxicological effects by which any benefit from their administration may be outweighed (Nageswara at el., 2003). Therefore, it is quite obvious that the products intended for human consumption must be characterized as completely as possible. The quality and safety of a drug is generally assured by monitoring and controlling the impurities effectively. Thus, the analytical

    acetophenone to the Grignard reagent dropwise because the reaction was very exothermic; a noticeable amount heat was produced (Figure 3). After forming 1,1-diphenylethanol, we washed the crude sample (1,1-diphenylethanol with impurities) with cold hexane to remove impurities such as acetophenone and bromobenzene. Cold hexane was added (rather than ambient temperature hexane) to minimize 1,1-diphenylethanol

    This experiment demonstrated how to purify benzoic acid by means of recrystallization. The original benzoic acid solid sample used contained 5% salicylic acid, an impurity. Benzoic acid is of the following structure: Salicylic is of the following structure: For part 1, after boiling and dissolving benzoic acid in water, we allowed the solution to cool and recrystallize, first at air temperature and then on ice. As the solution cooled at air temperature, the benzoic acid started to recrystallize

  • Manufacture Of Iron By Blast Furnace Process

    988 Words  | 2 Pages

    Process Iron is a naturally occurring element in its ore form (Haematite), however for iron to be of any use the impurities must be removed. This is done by a process involving a blast furnace. Extremely high temperature in the range of 870°C are reached within the blast furnace and this heat causes reactions to occur within the blast furnace that remove some of the impurities from the iron ore. The materials placed in the blast furnace are iron ore, coke and limestone. Coke is the reducing

    and in mirror and dental alloy production. Commercially, silver can be extracted from copper and lead concentrates and from high grade jewelry. From copper concentrates, the copper sulfide is smelted and run through electrolysis. The insoluble impurities from the copper production are collected and smelted in a furnace to separate silver from the other oxidized metals. To fully separate the silver, the metal is cast and electrolyzed vertically or horizontally in a solution of silver-copper nitrate
