Safety Precautionary Measures of Laboratory:-

     There are some safety measures of lab listed here

  • Always wear lab coats and Gloves while using any hazardous chemical or substance.
  • Never do unauthorized experiments.
  • Never work alone in laboratory.
  • Keep your lab space clean and organized.
  • Do not leave an on-going experiment unattended.
  • Always inform your instructor if you break a thermometer. Do not clean mercury yourself!!
  • Never taste anything. Never pipette by mouth; use a bulb.
  • Never use open flames in laboratory unless instructed by TA.
  • Check your glassware for cracks and chips each time you use it. Cracks could cause the glassware to fail during use and cause serious injury to you or lab mates.
  • Maintain unobstructed access to all exits, fire extinguishers, electrical panels, emergency showers, and eye washes.
  • Do not use corridors for storage or ork areas.
  • Do not store heavy items above table height. Any overhead storage of supplies on top of cabinets should be limited to lightweight items only. Also, remember that a 36" diameter area around all fire sprinkler heads must be kept clear at all times.
  • Areas containing lasers, biohazards, radioisotopes, and carcinogens should be posted accordingly. However, do not post areas unnecessarily and be sure that the labels are removed when the hazards are no longer present.
  • Be careful when lifting heavy objects. Only shop staff may operate forklifts or cranes.
  • Clean your lab bench and equipment, and lock the door before you leave the laboratory.

Solubility

Definition:

The amount of substance(Solute) that dissolves in a unit volume of a liquid substance(Solvent) to form a homogenous saturated solution under specified conditions of temperature and pressure. This phenomenon is known is Solubility.

Solubility of a compound in a particular solvent is defined as the concentration of solute (compound) in a saturated solution at a certain temperature.

it may be defined as a the continuous interaction of two or more compound to form homogenous molecular dispersion the basis of solute and solvent present in the solution.

Role:

Solubility is an important phenomenon in pharmaceutical sciences it plays very effective and prominent role in the form  ulations of dosage forms.

                                             CLASSIFICATION:

it can be classified in three categories.

1)   Saturated solution: Saturated solution is the one in which the substances (solute) is in equillibirium with solid phase at a particular temperature.in these types of solution ,the solute is completely in the soluble state

2)   Unsaturated solution :  it is the solution which containing the less amount of solute than the saturated solution at a particular temperature.

3)   Supersaturated solution: A supersaturated solution is one that contains more substance than required for the preparation of the saturated solution at a definite temperature.  solubility of the solute is enhanced by changing the physical parameters.

Solubility may be expressed in aconcise form by J.W.Gibb, it is useful for relating the effect of variables on solubilty like temperature, pressure,concentration etc.upon the various phases such as solid,liquid and gaseous.

                                                                                   F=C-P+2

Where F is degree of freedom in the system,

C is the number of components and

 P represents the number of bases

this equation is known as Gibb's phase rule or equation.

                                                                  Iceßà waterßà Vapor

In this example component  (C) = 1 and the number of phases (P) =3

Expression of solubility: Many terms are used for the expression othif solubility.when quantitative data are available,solubility may be expressed in many ways like molarity,molality,normality,mole fraction and percent solution.ln pharmaceutical sciences solubility can be expressed in the following terms.

(a)  % w/w ( weight by weight )

(b) % w/v  ( weight by volume)

(c)  %  v/v  ( volume by volume)

     Solubility of the Drugs is expressed in various units in the merck index.

Factors affecting solubility:

 Many factors are' affecti..g solubility of substances in solvents viz.

        • Temperature

        • Concentration

        • Types of solute and solvent

        • pH

        • Partical size

        • Molecular structure

        • Common ion effect

        • Combined effect of solvent and pH

        • Effect of wetting agent or surfactant

        • Effect of non electolytes.

Determination of solubility:

For determination of solubility of a solid in liquids,it can be divided into two steps

1)    Preparation of saturated solution:

Saturated solution can be prepared by three methods.all three methods are employed for the   preparation of saturated soultion in practice but second method is more preferable than the first and third methods because this method is fast and easy to prepare the saturated solution.

a)    In first method,the substance is added in the solvent slowly at a praticu(ar temperature and solute is not added more than the saturation.

b)    The second method is based on the effect of temperature,as solubility increases with increases in temperature.if the soulbility is to studied at 25°C,then the solvent is to be heated at 300 to 350C with excess amount of solute.The amount of solute required is more higher temperature for the preparation of saturated solution.when this solution is cooled at the study temperature (25°C) the excess amount of solute is separated out in the solution.it can be separated by the filtration.the filtration solution is considered as saturated soution at the study temperature.

c)    The third method is same as second method but is slightly different from the second,as in this method excess amount of the solute is added in solvent at the study temperature and shaken with continuous stirring or by wrist action shaker for few hours or left the container for 24 hour saturation. With occadonal shaking and removing excess amount of solute by filtration.This solution is known as saturated solution.

      2)  Analysis of saturated solution:

The anaylsis of saturated solution depends on the nature of the substance (solute) and accuracy of analysis.Many methods have been employed for the determination of solubility.

a) Evaporation method: This method is suitable for those substance which do not decompose at a slightly higher (10-20°C) temperature than the boiling point of a solvent.In this method a suitable volume of the saturated solution of the solute in the solvent at the study temperature is weighed in a porcelain dish and the solvent is evaporated till dryness.it is heated to achieve a final volume in an oven to a constant weight.Thus,the amount of the solid present in the solution can be calculated.

b) Volumetric method: This method is suitable for determination of solubility of acids and bases by titration.In this method a fixed volume of solution is treated with a suitable reagent using an indicator and determination amount of the solute present in the solution.This method is suitable for the determination of solubility in the solvent

 c) Gravimetric method: This method is suitable to those substances which react with reagent in solution and gives sparingly soluble product.In this method, a known quantity of solution is taken and added suitable reagent to precipitate the substance completely into form of new compounds or salts form. Filter the precipitate and remove the solvent if necessary wash the precipitate using purified water and then dry tin e precipitate.weighed amount of precipitate is to be dried in porcelin dish to get qa constant weight.By this method solubility can be calculated as the number of grams of solute in 100g of the solvent.

d) Instrumental methods: All these methods are very sensitive and suitable for determination of solubility in fractions or in microns.Instrumental methods are very popular for the determination of solubility due to its ease of working and simplicity.

      a) UV-spectrophotometer method

      b) High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)

      c) Thin layer chromatography(TLC)

      d) Gas chromatography (GC) e) Many

Experiment #5 Density

Definition     The mass per unit volume at a constant temperature  and pressure is termed as density”#

Density is a derived quantity.

It is the characteristic property of a substance that the density of a substance is the relationship between the mass of substance and how much space it takes up (volume).

Formula and Unit:

                The density can be determined by:

                      Density = weight/volume

The unit of density in CGS is gram per centimeter cube (g/cm).

Other Terms For Representation:

                   Number  of terms are used to represent the mass or weight of equal volume of different substances:

 

·        Absolute density

·        Apparent density

·        Relative density

·        Specific density

Absolute Density:

                 Absolute density is the ratio of mass of a substance to volume of substance at specific temperature.(mass of any substance is reffered as the weight of substance at a specific temperature)

absolute density = mass in grams (in vaccum)/volume in milliliters

Apparent Density:

                Apparent density is the ratio of mass of a substance in air to the volume of the substance at specific temperature.

  

               Apparent density =  mass in grams(in air)/ volume in milliliters

 

Relative Density:

              Relative density  is an expression which exhibits mass of 1ml of a standard substances such as water at a specific temperature, relative to water at 4 degree Celsius.

 

Specific Density:

          Specific density may be defined as the ratio of mass  of substance to the mass of an equal volume of another substance taken as standards

 

        Specific density = Ws/v   =   Ws

                                           Ww/v       Ww

 

Where as weight of substance, Ww weight of equal volume of water and V volume in milliliter.

INSTRUMENTS USED TO MEASURE DENSITY

     Specific gravity may be determind by using various types of methods using different types of equipment like

·        Pycnometer

·        Density bottle (specific gravity bottles).

·        Thermometer

·        Beaker

·        Water bath

·        Weighting balance

 

Chemicals:

·        Distilled water

·        Chromatic acid solution

·        Acetone

Procedure:

     Clean the pycnometer using chromic acid solution and then rise with purified water. Rinse it again using acetone and let it dry.

            Weigh the dry pycnometer first then fill the pycnometer with distilled water and weigh it again.

               After maintaining different temperatures (37, 42, 55, 68, 75, 85 and 95 degree Celsius ) by uing water bath, repeat the experiment three times.

Observations:

·          Volume of pycnometer                           = V ml

·        Weight of empty and dry pycnometer = W1 g

·        Weight of pycnometer with water        = W2 g

·        Weight of water in pycnometer             = W2 – W1 g

Calculations:

          Density of water at room temperature:

                  

      Density = weight of water at room temp (W2-W1) / volume of pycnometer  (V)

 

Result:

        Report the result on the bases of calculation of density (density of water decreases with increasing temperature)

       It is important in case of water. Density of water is highest i.e 1.0 at 4 degree Celsius , while increases in temperature (above 4 degree) and decreasing (below 4 degree) of temperature of water, density decreases.

What is a paste?

A thick soft substance produced by mixing liquid with dry substances

Toothpaste:

Toothpaste is a paste used with a toothbrush as an accessory to clean and maintain the aesthetics and health of teeth. Toothpaste is used to promote oral hygiene: it serves as an abrasive that aids in removing the dental plaque and food from the teeth, assists in suppressing halitosis, and delivers active ingredients (most commonly fluoride) to help prevent tooth decay (dental caries) and gum disease (gingivitis). Salt and sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) are among materials that can be substituted for commercial toothpaste. Toothpaste is not intended to be swallowed due to the fluoride content, but is generally not very harmful if accidentally swallowed in small amounts; however, one should seek medical attention after swallowing abnormally large amounts.

It prevent cancer diseases.

Caffeine

Caffeine ingestion can delay fatigue during exercise, but the mechanisms remain elusive. This study was designed to test the hypothesis that blockade of central nervous system (CNS) .

Paracetamol

Paracetamol (acetaminophen) has been shown to be an effective analgesic for the treatment 
of moderate pain where it is chiefly indicated
.

Uses

Relieving  headache , muscle aches, and other minor aches and pain. It is also used to reduce fever. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Acetaminophen/aspirin/caffeine powder packet is an analgesic and antipyretic combination. It works by blocking substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation. Caffeine constricts blood vessels, which helps to relieve headaches.
