Experiment No. 1
SOLUBILITY OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS

SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM:
Obtain approximately 2-3 drops or 5 mg.
of compound 1, add 2 mL distilled H2O
-Shake vigorously and observe.

-Check the Ph
using R & B
Litmus Paper

If not dissolved completely.

If dissolved completely.

+ 1.5 mL of distilled H2O; Stir

Classify this as Group A.
Insoluble in H2O

Obtain a new sample

Note:
-If the compound dissolves both in
NaOH & NaHCO3 = classified as
Group B1
-if the compound is soluble in NaOH
but insoluble in NaHCO3 = classified
as Group B2.

+ 3 mL 5% NaOH

If insoluble in 5% NaOH

Dissolves

Determine the solubility with 3 mL 5% NaHCO3

Obtain a new sample
+ 3 mL 5% HCl

If soluble in HCl, classify as

Group C

-Do all the procedures for compounds

2,3,4,5 and 5.
-Classify compounds 1,2,3,4 and 5

If insoluble in HCl, classify as

Group D
