Science Homework Help

answer the question below regarding experiment 1 in organic chemistry which is fischer Esterification and follow the instruction

1. Please show your calculations for obtaining your percent yield. Include the calculations for the theoretical yield as well. Also, if something went wrong during the course of your experiment (i.e you spilled your product, did the work-up wrong, etc.) you can explain about it here.

(weight of empty vial is 16.65g and the weight of vial +product is 20.84g) something went wrong during the experiment but I don’r know what you can predict what happed and explain it but one thing I’m sure of is that I used a used stir bar.

2. Analyze your NMR spectra using Mestrenova and upload a picture of it on this assignment. In your spectra, you should have the chemical shifts of each peak, and the integration underneath it as well. You also have to include an explanation matching up the peaks in your NMR spectra to that of the product, methyl benzoate. Explain why you think you matched up the peaks properly based on chemical shift, integration, and splitting pattern. If you have extra peaks in your NMR that do not match up to any proton peaks in your product, explain where they could have come from.
