Thiocyanate in solution can be oxidized by adding nitric acid and gently boiling until half of the solution remains. Can someone please explain how this works? Is there an equation?
I don't understand and it seems kind of dangerous to remove the sulfur from the cyanide anyway.
Thanks!

Proteins are composed of amino acid units bound by peptide bonds. By the addition of the enzyme Bacterial Protease these bonds are broken and the individual amino acids are freed. A simple test for free amino acids is the use of the reagent Ninhydrin which turns purple in the presence of amino acids but remains yellowish in the presence of protein. I. Label one 250 ml beaker A and one 250 ml beaker B. To each beaker add l 00...
Rewrite the text in past tense Use only third person, passive voice, e.g.: “Thirty grams of naphthalene was added 50 mL of m-xylene in a 250 mL round bottomed flask.” Experimental Procedure 1. Set up a simple distillation apparatus. 2. Add 16 g (16.7 mL) of cyclohexanol and 4 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid to the round bottom flask. Caution: Sulfuric acid is highly corrosive. Use caution and appropriate personal protective equipment! 3. Mix contents thoroughly and connect to distillation...
I really just need all the equations, please and thank you.
MATERIALS: cene nitric acid, HNO, 3.0M sodium hydroxide, NaOH 6.0 M sulfuric acid, H2SO4 zine metal DI water PROCEDURE: Make sure you record detailed observations after almost every step. You will also need to write the balanced chemical equations for almost every step. Make sure you answer any questions associated with a step 1. Weigh approximately 0.5 g of copper metal and record the weight. Place the copper in...
Hi,
can anyone please help me with this? i have no clue how to define
if a reaction is Oxidation reduction or not. Thanks a lot
OXIDATION-REDUCTION Introduction Chemists refer to reactions which involve a transfer of electrons from one reactant to another as oxidation reduction reactions of just "redox" reactions. Oxidation is defined as a loss of electron and reduction as a gain of electron by a substance during a chemical reaction. The loss of electrons by one substance...
9. Then add slowly while mixing 1 mL of saturated sodium bicarbonate solution (NaHCO3) -IT WILL BUBBLE! Add additional drops of saturated sodium bicarbonate solution with mixing until no additional bubbling occurs Congratulations! You have just made your first ester. Now you want to separate your ester product from the other stuff in the reaction mixture. CTQ3 Sodium bicarbonate is a base. How will it interact with any carboxylic acid molecules still present in your reaction mixture? 10. Add 1mL...

just making sure did I do right in number 10. and im confused at
number 11 and 12 13. becausse we didnt learn in class. please help.
thanks for your patient
PROCEDURE 1. This experiment is to be conducted individually. on the side shelf: small squares of copper, NaOH, HSO in the hood: conc. HNOs, conc. HC 2. The following items will be found 4 Use your brush and some soap solution to wash your casserole dish as well as...
d. Suppose you mistakenly acidify the filtrate with HCl instead of with HNO3. What would you obser after completing the halide test, and what would that observation lead you to conclude? Organic Laboratory Technique Primer Sodium Fusions and lon Testing Background: The elements that commonly occur in organic compounds along with carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, are: nitrogen sulfur, and the halogens. The detection of these latter three elements depends on converting them into water soluble lons (CNS , and X...
According to the instructions page (first picture) are these
reactions correct? I got stuck on the second page (third picture)
that is why it is blank. Please help me with the reactions that are
incorrect and the blank ones? No need to write the odors, only the
name of ester and the reaction in form of skeletal structure.
Thanks a lot.
Procedure: Caution: Wear your goggles at all times. Glacial acetic acid and concentrated sulfuric acid are corrosive! 1. Assemble...

someone help me answer these 5 questions and figire this graph out
please?
Acid-Base Titration of a Weak Acid with a Strong Base: Determination of K. Introduction: You will be titrating a solution of a weak acid with 0.100 M NaOH, while monitoring the reaction using a pH meter. Weak acids have characteristic acid-ionization constants, K. The purpose of this lab is to use the titration to determine the value of this constant for the weak acid called “benzoic...
