Pre-lab Report GuidelineClick on ¡°NAME¡± and type ¡°Camphor¡±Chem 14CL (Spring 2006) Report Guidelines for Experiment #10 Oxidation of Borneol to Camphor Pre-lab Report MUST be written inside the lab notebook. Pre-lab Report Guideline NOTE: The experimental procedures for this experiment are provided as handout (i) Title of the experiment (ii) Introduction – outline the techniques (including any synthesis, purification and identification) that you will be using in this experiment. (iii) Procedure in Flowchart Format (for the entire experiment - except for the section on optical rotation) (iv) Reference of the experimental procedures (v) Pre-lab exercise questions #1 to 6 (refer to the experimental handout pages 439-441) (vi) Pre-lab exercise questions #1 & 2 (refer to your lab manual – page 108) You can use FOUR different sites within the MSDS on the Web for question 1 of the pre-lab. (refer to the MSDS handout for more details) Two other excellent web sites that will also link you to MSDS are: http://www.chemnetbase.com Click on the “Combined Chemical Dictionary” to start the search You may also use CS Chemfinder for the search. http://chemfinder.cambridgesoft.com/ (vii) Data Table(s) (USE A NEW PAGE FOR THIS SECTION) Set up data table(s) that will allow you to record any numerical values as well as all the observations during the experiment.Chem 14CL Report Guidelines for Experiment #10 Oxidation of Borneol to Camphor Post-lab Reports MUST be written inside the lab notebook. Refer to the lab schedule for due date. Post-lab Report (Both period 1 & 2) This is an INDIVIDUAL Report (I) Abstract – summarize goal(s) of the experiment, your experimental results as well as the experimental techniques that you used that enable you to achieve such goal(s). (II) Data & Data Analysis - Write balanced chemical equations describing what happen during various steps of the experiment Note: Use the experimental handout as a guide when writing various chemical reactions. - Find the theoretical yield of camphor - Using the theoretical yield, calculate the % yield for the crude product - Calculate the % yield for the sublimed product - (III) Conclusion - Comment on % crude yield - Interpretation of camphor sublimed product composition and purity by comparing the IR spectrum for PURE camphor with the EXPERIMENTAL IR spectrum. Explain all your reasoning. You can download a copy of the IR spectrum for PURE CAMPHOR from the NIST Web Book. http://webbook.nist.gov/chemistry/ Click on “NAME” and type
