    Organic Chemistry Organic chemistry is the chemistry of carbon compounds. It deals with the structure, properties and reactions of compounds that contain carbon and includes those from nature as well as synthetic compounds. Organic chemistry, often termed as the ‘chemistry of design’, allows new molecules to be created such as in the manufacture of plastics, polymers, fuels, soaps, detergents, drugs and medicines. These, if carefully designed, have important properties for the improvement of mankind

    AP Chemistry Mrs. Johnson Chemistry Butane and Inquiry Lab Submitted By Germaine Washington September 30, 2016 Abstract The purpose of these experiments was to determine the validity of the Ideal Gas Law. In the first experiment we used a Butane lighter to conduct a collection of C4H10 gas over water, with which we would measure the volume of the butane produced. It was found the 0.16 g of Butane gas at 299°K and 1.005 atm held a volume of 100mL. The results supported the Ideal Gas Law, PV

    Introduction Analytical chemistry was used for this project to determine the level of the reaction Fe3+ + SCN- ↔ FeSCN2+. According to ACS Chemistry for Life, “analytical chemistry is the science of obtaining, processing, and communicating information about the composition and structure of matter” (Analytical Chemistry). In this experiment the interaction of iron(III) (Fe3+) and thiocyanate (SCN-) formed, which was processed and now being communicated through the quantitative data collected. Chemical
