Innovating Science™ AP Chemistry Kits: Analyzing the Components of Pain Relievers

Description

Includes

Ethyl acetate (3 x 250mL), 10% Sodium bicarbonate (3 x 250mL), Sucrose granular sugar (50g), Acetaminophen (100g), Acetylsalicylic acid (100g), pH strips, Teacher's guide, Student study guide copymasters

Requires

0.001g precision balance, boiling stones, filter paper, graduated cylinder (50mL), ice bath, separatory funnel (250mL), support stand and ring clamp, test tubes, weighing dishes, beakers (150mL), Erlenmeyer flask (125mL), funnel, hotplate, magnetic stirrer stir bar, spatula, stir bar, watch glasses

Students can test the solubility of each possible component of a commercially available pain reliever in an organic solvent, ethyl acetate, and in a basic aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate.

Using the results of this experiment, a procedure can be created that will be used to separate components in a mixture and determine percent composition.
