Chemistry Laboratory X

(Practical)

 

CO107: Identify the functional groups in mono and bifunctional organic compounds by performing step-wise qualitative tests.

CO108: Interpret the given spectra and identify the simple organic compounds.

CO109: Synthesize some dyes and polymers. Estimate carbohydrates in given sample and extract organic molecules from natural products.

CO110: Compile and report the results efficiently, and develop communications skills.

CO111: Contribute effectively in course-specific interaction.

Approach in teaching:

Power point presentation, laboratory instructions and demonstrations.

 

 

Learning activities for the students:

Peer learning, hands-on-learning, interpretation of data, record

writing and learning through virtual labs.

 

Conduction of experiments, lab records, viva voce.

 

 

 

Unit I: 

Organic Compound Detection

Qualitative analysis of unknown organic compounds containing monofunctional groups (carbohydrates, aryl halides, aromatic hydrocarbons, nitro compounds, amines and amides) and simple bifunctional groups, for e.g. salicylic acid, cinnamic acid, nitrophenols, etc.

 

Spectral Characterization of Organic Compounds

Identification of simple organic compounds by IR spectroscopy and NMR spectroscopy (spectra to be provided).

 

Synthesis and Extraction

  • Preparation of methyl orange or any other related compound.
  • Extraction of caffeine from tea leaves.
  • Preparation of sodium polyacrylate/urea formaldehyde or any other related compound.

 

Analysis of Carbohydrate: aldoses and ketoses, reducing and non-reducing sugars.

Organic Compound Detection

This exercise carries 20 marks for the identification of one organic compound (liquid or solid); the distribution of marks will be as follows:

Physical properties: colour, state, odour                         2 marks

Solubility                                                                       2 marks

Aliphatic/ Aromatic                                                        2 marks

Element detection                                                         3 marks

Functional group                                                           3 marks

M.P/B.P.                                                                       2 marks

Confirmatory test                                                          2 marks

Derivative – procedure & M.P.                                        2 marks

Result                                                                           2 marks

 

Spectral Characterization (IR and NMR)

Two spectra (one IR and one NMR) will be given to the students for characterization. Each spectra carries 10 marks.       

Synthesis

This exercise carries 15 marks. 4 marks out of 15 are reserved for neat, methodical and systematic working. The exercise amongst the candidates will be allotted by lot.

The yield, purity and proper presentation of the compound shall be taken into account while awarding marks.

Viva

Oral questions shall generally be asked over the work assigned to the candidate. The purpose is to find out as to what extent the candidate has understood the basic principles.
