a. The chemical structures below show two analgesics (painkillers): acetaminophen and ibuprofen. Which analgesic would you expect to be more soluble in water at pH 7? Explain your answer by naming the intermolecular forces present in each molecule. CH3 CH3 LOH CH3 OH CH3 Acetaminophen Ibuprofen b. Imagine you wanted to increase acetaminophen's solubility in water. To what approximate pH would you adjust your solution of acetaminophen? What about if you wanted to increase the solubility of ibuprofen? Think about the pka's of the functional groups in each molecule.

Materials Needed solid I2 solid CUSO4-5H20 food dye solid (NH4)2SO4 heavy metals waste container halogenated waste container non-halogenated waste container semi-micro test tubes and rack regular test tubes and rack squash pipettes acetone cyclohexane propan-2-ol Method Part A: Solubility of ionic and molecular solids 1. Place a small amount (about the size of 1 grain of rice, see picture) of copper sulfate into each of three DRY semi-micro test tubes. Add 20 drops of water to the first test tube and gently flick the test tube with your finger to ensure mixing. 2. Repeat step 1 using acetone in place of water as the solvent in the second test tube. 3. Repeat step 2 replacing acetone with cyclohexane in the third test tube. Hold the test tubes against a white background to compare the solubility of copper sulfate in the three solvents and record your results. Discard these mixtures into the heavy metals waste container in the fume cupboard. Once these test tubes have been emptied you…

When dissolved in water, flunitrazepam, also known as roofies or the "date rape" drug, is difficult to detect because it is colorless, odorless, and tasteless. Recently, a straw has been developed that changes color when placed in a drink spiked with flunitrazepam. A woman at a bar is worried that flunitrazepam was slipped into her water when she left it unattended. She places one of these new color-changing straws into the water and the straw does not change color. Based on this result, is the woman's drink a pure substance or a mixture? mixture pure substance If it is a pure substance, is it an element or a compound? compound
