	<p>In this lab, you will synthesize an ester from a carboxylic acid and an alcohol in the presence of sulfuric acid. This reaction is called Fischer esterification. The sulfuric acid makes the carboxylic acid more reactive towards the alcohol. Without it, esterification would be slow and unfavorable. Esterification is highly reversible, so you&#39;ll use an excess of alcohol to drive the reaction towards the ester.</p>
	<p>You will be assigned one of seven carboxylic acid-alcohol pairs for your reaction. Each of the seven possible product testers has a distinct fruity scent. When you finish the reaction, you will waft your products vapor towards yourself and identify it based on the fruit that it smells like.</p>

	<p>Buffers can be used to evaluate compounds at specific pH values. In this section, you will record the absorbance spectrum of the indicator neutral red in various buffers.

Thus, the acidic and basic forms have distinct absorption wavelengths. Protein binding alters the properties of neutral red, changing both its absorbance and its pKa.</p>
	<p>After measuring the absorbance spectrum of free neutral red at several pH values, you will add riboflavin-binding protein, or RP, to the solutions and measure the absorbances again. Absorbance intensity is related to concentration, so you will use the spectra to determine the pKa of free and bound neutral red after the lab.</p>

	<p>In this section of the lab, you will use TLC to compare how well pure hexane and a mixture of 60% hexane and 40% ethyl acetate can separate phenol, benzoic acid, and butyl phenyl ether by measuring the distance the compound traveled in each solvent.</p>
	<ul class="lab-items">
		<li data-sub-note-item="1-2">
		<div class="lab-step">Before starting the lab, put on a lab coat, safety glasses, and nitrile gloves. Note: Hexane and ethyl acetate are both volatile, toxic, and flammable, so always work with them in a fume hood. Change your gloves if you get solvent on them, as hexane and ethyl acetate will permeate nitrile gloves within minutes.</div>
		</li>
		<li data-sub-note-item="1-3">
		<div class="lab-step">Now, obtain a paper towel and lay it on the benchtop. Carefully pick up a TLC plate using tweezers at the very end of the plate.<strong> Note: </strong>Always hold TLC plates by the edges or at the very top with tweezers to avoid damaging or contaminating the silica gel.</div>
		</li>
		<li data-sub-note-item="1-4">
		<div class="lab-step">Look for chips or scratches in the silica gel and get a new plate if necessary. It&#39;s fine if there is a little chipping at only one end, since that can be the top.</div>
		</li>
		<li data-sub-note-item="1-5">
		<div class="lab-step">Place the plate on the paper towel in your fume hood, and lay a metric ruler next to it. Use a graphite pencil to gently make a small mark on the silica gel ~1 cm from the top of the plate. Write &#8216;100&#8217; on the plate above the mark.</div>
		</li>
		<li data-sub-note-item="1-6">
		<div class="lab-step">Next, gently mark the plate 1 cm above the bottom on both sides. Carefully trace a straight line between the bottom marks to make the starting line.</div>

		<div class="lab-step">Then, add 3 evenly spaced small marks to the starting line with the outer marks at least 0.5 cm from the sides of the plate. <strong>Note:</strong> It&#39;s important for the silica gel to be undamaged here, so if you scratch it with the pencil, prepare a new plate.</div>
		</li>
		<li data-sub-note-item="1-8">
		<div class="lab-step">Now, trace the outline of the TLC plate in your lab notebook and precisely copy the marks on the plate.

		<li data-sub-note-item="1-10">
		<div class="lab-step">Dip a clean capillary into one of the three solutions. Briefly and lightly dab the capillary squarely against the intersection between the starting line and the mark for that compound. You should spot twice for each compound.</div>

		<li data-sub-note-item="1-12">
		<div class="lab-step">Spot the other two solutions on the plates, in the same way, using clean capillaries. Be careful not to cross-contaminate the solutions. <strong>Note</strong>: If a spot is very light or very small, wait for it to dry, and then spot the same solution on top of the dry spot. If the spot is still wet, capillary action could make it too wide and dilute.</div>
		</li>
		<li data-sub-note-item="1-13">

	<p>Density is a measure of how compact a substance or object is, and it is calculated as mass divided by volume. When a dense object is placed in a liquid with a lower density, the object sinks; when the object is less dense than the liquid, it floats. When the densities are the same, the object will be suspended in the liquid. In this experiment, we&#39;ll determine the density of an egg by creating a solution with the same density. We&#39;ll measure the density of the salt solution using different volume measurement glassware and determine which is the most accurate.</p>

Always view the measurement at eye level and measure the volume from the bottom of the meniscus.

<button class="expand">Expand</button><ul class="lab-items"><li data-sub-note-item="1-1"><div class="lab-step">NOTE: In this exercise, you will be given agar containing an indicator chemical called phenolphthalein. When phenolphthalein is exposed to the normal alkaline conditions in the agar, it will look pink. But when it is exposed to neutral or acidic conditions, it changes from pink to clear. You will make different size and shaped agar cubes as a model for cells to study the impact of cell size and shape on diffusion rate.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-2"><div class="lab-step">To make the first set of cells, measure out and cut a small cube of agar where each side measures one centimeter.

</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-4"><div class="lab-step">Knowing the length of the sides of your cube cells, calculate their surface area using this equation, where lower case a represents the length of the sides: Surface Area = 6a^2

</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-6"><div class="lab-step">Then, use the same length value and the equation below to calculate the volume of each cube and add these to the table: Volume = a^3 HYPOTHESES: The experimental hypothesis might be that the acid will diffuse completely to the center of the small cell faster than the medium and large cells. The null hypothesis could be that the acid will diffuse to the center of the small and two larger cubes at around the same time.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-7"><div class="lab-step">Add 100 mL of 0.1 M HCl to each of the three 400 mL beakers to make the diffusion baths.

</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-14"><div class="lab-step">As the cell size increases, note whether the surface area to volume ratio increases or decreases. Also consider whether this correlates with your observation of the depth of diffusion into the agar cells. If cells rely on diffusion to deliver essential nutrients and molecules to the whole cell, discuss with your group if it would be better to have a smaller or larger surface area to volume.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-15"><div class="lab-step">Now, with the remaining agar, cut three rectangular shaped blocks of different sizes and record their length, width, and height. This will test what happens when the shapes of cells are different.

</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-18"><div class="lab-step">Repeat the experiment by dropping the new shapes into the hydrochloric acid solution for 10 min or until one cube becomes completely clear.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-19"><div class="lab-step">Remove the cell shapes from the solutions and observe the depth that the hydrochloric acid diffused into each of these cells, and which shapes have the smallest and largest remaining pink areas not reached by the solute.
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-20"><div class="lab-step">Using the surface area and volume data you recorded for your rectangular shapes, calculate the surface area to volume ratio of these cells. Surface Area: Volume Ratio = (surface area)/volume
</div></li><li data-sub-note-item="1-21"><div class="lab-step">Consider whether these values correlate to which cells had the most and least complete diffusion.
