Report
1 Report for Chem 102 Laboratory Exercise #1 Chromatographic separation and identification of compounds in analgesics 1 Using Microsoft Word, students are to insert responses in all yellow highlighted areas. It is recommended that the report be completed without changing font size, column width, row width, margins and highlights. No photographs or handwritten work is accepted, unless specifically indicated in the lab manual. The completed report must be uploaded to the 102 Brightspace site as a .pdf file by the due date posted on Brightspace. All answers must be the student’s own work without assistance from others. Only reports which are completed using the template will be marked. Name: Lab Section: Quad: Date: Abstract The identity of the components of an analgesic capsule was determined to be Salicylic Acid and Phenacetin by using the technique of Thin layer chromatography. Data/Results Table 1. Experimental data and calculated R f values for Caffeine (analgesic), and contents of unknown capsule 2 . The observed data inserted in this table must be consistent with the observed data written in your In-lab notes with the correct units.

The contents of the analgesic capsule are determined by using the thin layer chromatography technique. After the chromatographic separation, the R f is determined by dividing the distance the spot travelled by the distance the solvent travelled. The values and data from colleagues known experiment is than compared to the unknown to figure out the contents. Conclusions The contents of an unknown analgesic capsule, #36246, Lot #TK421, La-Reim Chemical Co. were determined to be Salicylic Acid and Phenacetin by TLC. References 1. M.
