What is the purpose of mixing the 2 solids with a stirring rod?


to prepare the substances to react at a later stage

to purify the two solids

to recrystallize the two solids

to induce a chemical reaction between the two solids

it doesn't accomplish anything

to induce a chemical reaction between the two solids

What can happen if too much hexanes is used in the recrystallization?


the recrystallization yield can be low or even no crystals may form

hexanes is a non-polar solvent so there is no consequence for using too much

hexanes is a polar solvent so it can absorb water and complicate the recrystallization process

the yield will be >100%

the product may decompose


the recrystallization yield can be low or even no crystals may form

What is the most important piece of information that we can obtain from the IR spectrum at this step?


product formation can be distinguished by looking at the C-H stretches between 2850-3150 cm-1

product formation can be distinguished by looking for a new C=O stretch at approximately 1700 cm-1

product formation can be distinguished by the presence of an O-H stretch between 3200-3400 cm-1

product formation can be distinguished by looking for new C=C stretches at approximately 1600-1650 cm-1

product formation can be distinguished by the disappearance of the C=O stretch at approximately 1700 cm-1

product formation can be distinguished by the disappearance of the C=O stretch at approximately 1700 cm-1
