    Uploaded by

    nica velano
    Members were assigned different tasks for the acetone detection laboratory experiment. These included performing specific tests like the sodium bisulfite test and recording results. The objective was to detect the presence of acetone using various reagents and detection tests. These tests included Legal's test, Lieben's iodoform test, and the sodium nitroprusside test, each producing different colored results upon reaction with acetone. The conclusion was that multiple tests confirmed the presence of acetone based on the positive results.

    Worksheet no. 2
    ACETONE

    Objective:
    To be able to detect the presence of Acetone

    Materials:
    Aspirator Stirring rod
    Beaker Test tubes
    Condenser Test tube brush
    Distilling flask Test tube holder
    Micropipette
    Pipette

    Reagents:
    0.5% Sodium nitroprusside Mercuric iodide
    Acetic acid Potassium iodide
    Acetone KOH solution

    Procedure:
    I. Prepare all the materials needed
    II. Perform the different tests for the detection of acetone

    I. Detection using recorded video:


    A. Place 1 mL of sample in a test tube. Add a few drops of freshly prepared alkaline solution of
    sodium nitroprusside. Observe for the formation of color. Add excess acetic acid and observe
    for the color change

    RESULTS: ​Legal’s Test: Red to Orange solution and Greenish color (when heated)
    B. Place the sample in a flask and add Nessler’s reagent (1:1). Distill and observe for the formation
    of precipitate.

    RESULTS: Lieben’s Iodoform Test: Yellowish white precipitate


    Reynold’s Test: Black Zone

    Create a schematic diagram of the detection tests performed in the laboratory experiment videos.

    Legal’s Test Lieben’s Iodoform Test


    II. Detection using simulator:

    Test for Ketone

    Detection Test Result

    2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine test Formation of a Yellow


    or Orange precipitate.

    Sodium nitroprusside test Red-colored complex

    Sodium bisulfite test White crystalline formation

    Conclusion​:
    Acetone is a chemical used to make household products. Our body also makes this
    chemical when it breaks down fat. Based on the experiments conducted it is shown that
    Acetone can be detected by multiple detection tests that require different reagents and
    techniques. They give different positive results, however the presence of acetone can still be
    concluded from these results.

    PART II: Research Questions


    In this part of the worksheet, answer the following guide questions related to Acetone. Limit your
    answer to 5-7 sentences. Support your answer with valid and reliable references.

    Questions:

    1. Describe the acute and chronic effects of acetone to one’s health.

    - ACUTE HEALTH EFFECT​ (short term)

    1. Skin Irritation

    2. Eye,nose & throat Irritation

    3. Nausea & Vomiting

    4. Headache

    2. Is the acetone used in nail salons the same with acetones available in the industrial field?
    Explain.

    - Acetone, a colorless liquid also known as Propanone, is a solvent used in manufacture


    of plastics and other industrial products. Acetone is a solvent, which is a liquid that can
    dissolve other substances. Acetone is most commonly known as the solvent that
    removes nail polish, but it is also found in bath and fragrance products, hair and skin
    care products, as well as skin-lightening products.
    - When you touch nail polish removers that have acetone in them, you may notice that
    your skin becomes very dry. Acetone is volatile. In other words, it evaporates quickly.
    Acetone may also be used to where it's most frequent application would be in the
    formulation of nail polish removers.
    - Acetone is a primary ingredient in many nail polish removers. It breaks down nail
    polish, making it easy to remove with a cotton swab or cloth. It is widely used because
    it can easily mix with water and evaporates quickly in the air. Acetone is widely used in
    the textile industry for degreasing wool and degumming silk.

    Garcia, N. (2015). What is Acetone? - Structure, Uses & Formula.Available at:
    https://study.com/academy/lesson/what-is-acetone-structure-uses-formula.html​.
    3. What happens inside the body of a person that consumed acetone?

    - Consuming a small amount of acetone will not hurt a person. Thus, breathing a
    moderate to large amount for a short period of time can irritate the nose, throat, lungs
    and eyes of a person. It can also cause the person to feel uncomfortable by means of
    headache, dizziness, nausea and vomiting effect, a faster pulse is felt, passing out and
    possible coma. In women it can also cause a shorter menstrual cycle and birth defect.
    In men, male reproductive problems were other results. A long term exposure to
    acetone can damage the kidney, liver and nerves.

    https://dhss.delaware.gov/dhss/dph/files/acetonefaq.pdf
    4. How is acetone poisoning treated? Describe per route of exposure.

    - Acetone poisoning can occur when there’s an abnormally high amount of ketones. This
    is a condition known as ketoacidosis. Hundreds of commonly used household products
    contain acetone, including furniture polish, rubbing alcohol, and nail polish.

    Route of exposure:

    Inhalation – overexposure to specific containing acetone.

    Oral - accidentally drinking solutions that contain acetone

    Reference:
    The Merck Index. (2013). Acetone Monograph 65, O'Neil: The Royal Society of Chemistry. 15th Ed.
    Available at: ​http://www.rsc.org/Merck-Index/monograph/mono1500000065

    5. Can acetone poisoning cause death? Explain

    - Taking in acetone in small quantities is likely to have little effect as your liver enzymatic
    cytochrome p450 system detoxifies ketones, thus has the ability or capability to remove
    significant amounts of acetone naturally. If the enzymatic breakdown process of
    ketones by the liver is overwhelmed or compromised acetone poisoning will occur. If
    the acetone poisoning is severe enough a deep stupor, coma or death may occur.
