The sample, 0.005 mole of the sodium salt of the weak acid, is dissolver! in 100 ml of a 0.05-m solution of sodium chloride and titrated electrometrically with an acid-salt mixture in a hydrogen-silver-chloride cell without liquid junction.

The titration therefore is performed in a. medium of constant chloride concentration and of practically unchanging ionic­ strength (1'=0.1) . The calculations of pH values and of dissociation constants from the emf values are outlined. The tit ration curves and dissociation constants of formic acid and of acetic acid at 25 0 C were obtained by this method. The pK values (negative logarithms of the dissociation constants) were found to be 3.742 and 4. 754, respectively. CONTENTS Page I .

  • Sulfuric Acid
    TECHNICAL BULLETIN 19 Motivation Dve Wangara, WA, 6065 AUSTRALIA T +61 8 9302 4000 | FREE 1800 999 196 | F +61 8 9302 5000 SULFURIC ACID MATERIAL & FUNCTION General: Sulfuric Acid (H2SO4) (also spelled Sulphuric Acid) is a strong mineral acid used in many industrial processes as well as batteries. It is one of the largest inorganic industrial chemicals produced by tonnage. The quantity of sulfuric acid produced has been used as an indicator of a country’s industrial status. Uses: Sulfuric acid is one of the most important industrial chemicals. More of it is made each year than is made of any other manufactured chemical. It has widely varied uses and plays some part in the production of nearly all manufactured goods. The major use of sulfuric acid is in the production of fertilizers, e.g., superphosphate of lime and ammonium sulfate. Sulfuric acid is a strong acid used as an intermediate in the synthesis of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate surfactants used in dyes, in petroleum refining, for the nitration of explosives, in the manufacture of nitrocellulose, in caprolactam manufacturing, as the electrolyte in lead-acid batteries, and as a drying agent for chlorine and nitric acid It is used in petroleum refining to wash impurities out of gasoline and other refinery products. Sulfuric acid is used in processing metals, e.g., in pickling (cleaning) iron and steel before plating them with tin or zinc. Rayon is made with sulfuric acid. It serves as the electrolyte in the lead-acid storage battery commonly used in motor vehicles (acid for this use, containing about 33% H2SO4 and with specific gravity about 1.25, is often called battery acid).

A sulfonic acid group is introduced at the 1-position as an activating and protecting group for the Sandmeyer reaction. The sulfonate group allows for the use of only water and sulfuric acid as solvents. The sulfonic acid is introduced with three equivalents of sulfuric acid, and it is removed in 20% aq. sulfuric acid. Keywords: Sandmeyer reaction; protecting group; sulfonation; desulfonation 1. Introduction Regioselective synthesis of disubstituted naphthalenes can be challenging especially when the substituents are on different rings. We needed 5-bromo-2-naphthol (4) as a starting material for a multistep synthesis. This simple derivative is virtually unknown [1,2]. The most direct route to 4 is from 5-amino-2-naphthol (1) using the Sandmeyer reaction. Unfortunately, the Sandmeyer reaction fails with 1 because the hydroxyl group is too activating. Even when the hydroxyl group is protected as a methyl ether, the normal solution-phase Sandmeyer reaction employing cuprous salts is still problematic. In their preparation of 5-bromo-2-methoxynaphthalene, Dauben and co-workers resorted to pyrolysis of the diazonium ion double salt with HgBr2, but this procedure gives just a 30% yield of the bromide [3].

  • Nitration of Toluene (Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution)
    Nitration of Toluene (Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution) Electrophilic aromatic substitution represents an important class of reactions in organic synthesis. In "aromatic nitration," aromatic organic compounds are nitrated via an electrophilic aromatic substitution mechanism involving the attack of the electron-rich benzene ring on the nitronium ion. The formation of a nitronium ion (the electrophile) from nitric acid and sulfuric acid is shown below. The sulfuric acid is regenerated and hence acts as a catalyst. It also absorbs water to drive the reaction forward. Figure 1: The mechanism for the formation of a nitronium ion. The methyl group of toluene makes it around 25 times more reactive than benzene in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. Toluene undergoes nitration to give ortho and para nitrotoluene isomers, but if heated it can give dinitrotoluene and ultimately the explosive trinitrotoluene (TNT). Figure 2: Reaction of nitric acid and sulfuric acid with toluene. Procedure: 1. Place a 5 mL conical vial, equipped with a spin vane, in a crystallizing dish filled with ice-water placed on a stirrer. 2. Pour 1.0 mL of concentrated nitric acid into the vial. While stirring, slowly add 1.0 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid. 3. After the addition of sulfuric acid is complete, add 1.0 mL of toluene dropwise and slowly over a period of 5 minutes (slow down if you see boiling. Reaction produces a lot of heat). 4. While Stirring, allow the contents of the flask to reach the room temperature. Stir at room temperature for another 5 minutes. 5. Add 10 mL of water into a small separatory funnel.

  • Two-Stage, Dilute Sulfuric Acid Hydrolysis of Hardwood for Ethanol Production
    TWO-STAGE, DILUTE SULFURIC ACID HYDROLYSIS OF HARDWOOD FOR ETHANOL PRODUCTION John F. Harris, B.S. Chemical Engineer Andrew J. Baker, B.S. Chemical Engineer John I. Zerbe, Ph.D. Program Manager Energy Research, Development, and Application Forest Products Laboratory, Forest Service, USDA Madison, Wisconsin53705 ABSTRACT The Forest Products Laboratory has developed fundamental kinetic relationships for the hydrolysis of lignocellulose dating back to World War II. Recent work at the Laboratory has provided additional informa­ tion on hydrolysis of red oak by a two-stage process at higher tempera­ tures with lower liquid-to-solid ratios. The complications of working with mixtures of sugars and acetic acid (6 percent of oak) are such that effective fractionation is necessary. This is best accomplished by prehydrolysis using dilute sulfuric acid. Dilute acid hydrolysis is also currently the best method for conversion of the residual prehydro­ lyzed lignocellulose to glucose. The course and yield of reactions are well predicted by kinetics data, but more attention needs to be given to the effects of ash constituents on the catalyst acid and the rever­ sion reaction, and in reducing the water-to-wood ratio in hydrolysis. The purity of the solutions generated by the two-stage process is considerably better than that obtained by the previous percolation process, but this advantage is offset somewhat by the higher yields of the percolation process. Projections on the economics of the two-stage process, although better than for processes based on prior technology, are still considered high risk. 1151 TWO-STAGE, DILUTE SULFURIC ACID HYDROLYSIS OF HARDWOOD FOR ETHANOL PRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Interest in wood hydrolysis dates to 1819 when Braconnot dis­ covered that cellulose could be dissolved in concentrated acid solutions and converted to sugar.

Norman Craig and George W. Vinal ABSTRACT The heat of reaction in a lead storage cell involves reactions at the positive and negative plates and changes in the heat content of sulfuric-acid solutions. The latter is a variable factor, depending on the concentration of the solution. Newly computed values of the partial molal heat contents have made possible more accurate values of the heat of reaction, based on thermochemical data for comparison with l'imilar values computed from the best available electrochemical data. Good agreement was found. The partial molal heat capacity of sulfuric­ acid solutions has also been recalculated. Critically selected values of electro­ motive force and temperature coefficient are given. These include previously unpublished values obtained at this Bureau in 1933. The partial molal volumes of sulfuric-acid solutions are given for a few concentrations and these are used for computing changes in electromotive force with change in pressure. CONTENTS Page I.

Organic acids are varied and may be incompatible with each other. Notes: Check MSDSs for specifics 2. Store nitric acid separately in its own secondary container. It is a strong oxidizer. 3. Store acetic acid away from oxidizing agents — especially nitric acid. 4. Acetic acid may be stored with some inorganic acids and most flammable solvents but keep in a separate secondary container. (>70% acetic acid is combustible). Weak These are typically not corrosive and not strongly reactive and can be Organic Acids stored with general liquid lab chemicals. Examples include butyric, maleic, and benzoic acids.
