Description
Provides a small volume reactor (1 L) for studying chemical reactions with various parameters.
Perform a reaction, controlling the temperature:
- Of the reaction mixture
- Of the heat transfer fluid (if option O2)
Teaches the effects of:
- Different stirring speeds
- Adding the reagent at varying stages
- Internally cooling the reactor using an optional glass coil
Proposed Experiments
Perform organic synthesis (e.g. synthesis of aspirin):
- Study the chemical reaction mechanism and reagent preparation
- Adjust process parameters: temperature, stirring, reagent feed mode
- Aspirin obtained in solvent phase
- Controlled crystallization of aspirin
- Isolate the product, calculate the yield and analyse the purity.
