Document Summary

Make sure you know every side product possible and what causes them/how to get rid of them. also know your non-covalent interactions (tlc) and all the purification/separation schemes. , except weightier ones (due to van der waals forces) ( happy medium solvent for this lab = hexane. Uv light: rf value = distance traveled by substrate / distance of solvent. = usually indicates a nonpolar substance or polar solvent; generally a strong interaction with. = polar substance, nonpolar solvent, or taken out too early. Fractional distillation: solvent mixture separated by exploiting differences in bp, fractionating column acts as thousands of theoretical plate (surfaces for gas to condense and revaporize, simple distillation on) to get very pure product. (>100) btw the 2 compounds. Ideal solution: the 2 components are miscible but do not interact, obey raoult. : can purify complex mixtures with closer bps: fractional distillation. When this = 760 torr (atmospheric pressure), the mixture boils.
