1.0 INTRODUCTION This report is a practical experience acquired by me in the course of my industrial training at Druckfarben Nigeria Limited (DFN) under the student industrial work experience scheme (SWIES). In the earlier stage of science and technology education in Nigeria, students were from their respective institutions without any technical knowledge or working experience….

Introduction The purpose of the experiment was to oxidize and identify an unknown alcohol using hypochlorite, or household bleach. During the experiment, the bleach oxidized the secondary unknown alcohol into a liquid ketone which was distilled or boiled to find the boiling point and then identified using a chart of unknown identities and boiling points….

IntroductionIn this lab I observed the burning of a candle very closely. I found out that the candle needs oxygen to burn, that it produces carbon dioxide similar to the way that my body produces carbon dioxide, and that a candle produces water as a second waste product. I learned that if I hold an…

According to the kinetic molecular theory, gas particles are constantly in motion just like other forms of matter. However, their movement is distinct in that it is characterized by random translation. In solids, the particles primarily undergo vibrational motion. In liquids, they mainly vibrate and rotate, and also experience some translational motion. Gas particles move…

To set the ammonia fountain experiment up I made sure I had all the materials the lab required me to have which was: a Florence Flask, a 600 mL beaker, a Mohr pipet, distilled and tap water, a polyethylene wash bottle, a phenolphthalein indicator, concentrated ammonium hydroxide, sand, a heating mantle, a ring stand, clamps,…

Objective: Separate and purify acetanilide from a mixture by recrystallization. Compare the melting points of crude and recrystallized acetanilide. Introduction : The most common method of purifying solid organic compounds is by recrystallization. In this technique, an impure solid compound is dissolved in a solvent and then allowed to slowly crystallize out as the solution…

Introduction The purpose of this lab is to create two material samples through the process of powder metallurgy. After these samples have been manufactured completely through this process then they are evaluated under a microscope. One sample was sintered, and the other one was in its original compacted state for a comparison of how sintering…
