ABSTRACT
The identification of unknown organic compounds does not end up upon knowing its solubility class. Hence, a more thorough
investigation of the compound is needed in order to determine its identity. Group classification test separated one functional
group among the others. Functional groups are separated according to it branching, aromaticity and saturation. In this
experiment, 26 unknown compounds are classified using different classification tests. The objective of this experiment is to
apply appropriate classification tests from the obtained solubility class of the unknown samples. In the first part of this
experiment the solubility classes of the unknown samples were determined. After the identification of the solubility classes the
appropriate group classification tests were applied. The group classification tests narrow down the choices for the identity of
the compound under investigation. The functionality and structural tests for the unknown compounds are used to determine the
identity of the samples.
