LABORATORY SAFETY AND GUIDELINES
Better Safe than Sorry!!!Read the following instructions before you go into the laboratory
1. Safety glasses are required at all times. Prescription glasses are adequate, but contact lenses are not. Therefore, contact lenses are not permitted in the laboratory.
2. Always wear your laboratory coat. Do not wear clothing that hinders free movement of your hands or hangs loose outside your laboratory coat. Ladies Head scarves must be tucked into the lab coat.
3. Do not work in a laboratory if no instructor is present. Read theexperimental instructions carefully before starting the work. Note any precautionsthat must be taken.
4. Never eat, drink, or smoke in the laboratory. Never taste chemicals. Wash yourhands before you leave the laboratory.
5. Do not use your mouth to fill a pipette. There are special pipette fillers available.
6. Note the position of safety equipment such as fire extinguishers, eyewashes and first aid boxes. Report all accidents immediately to a staff member or technician.
7. Use the fume hood when doing experiments with irritatingchemicals.
8. Be careful about throwing away wastes. Always follow instructions given. Do not throw away solids in the sink. Do not leave glassware or any other solid materials, including filter papers, in the sink. Put broken glassware into the labeled buckets. Some waste liquids must be put into special bottles, not poured down the sink.
9. Do not leave a lighted burner unattended. Do not allow any part of your body or of your clothing to fall into a flame.
10. When heating anything in a test tube, do not point the open end towards yourself or towards any other person.
11. Before you leave the laboratory, turn off any water taps and burners and dispose of solid waste in the correct container. Also wash out all apparatus used and clean up the bench top.
3
12. Keep your bench clean and tidy while you are working. Clean up any spills orbroken glass immediately. Keep your books and papers away from water, chemicalsand flames. Position your apparatus on the bench so that it is convenient andcomfortable to use. Put equipment you are not using out of the way, so that you donot knock it over. :
13. Finally If you are in any doubt ask. I. General Behavior1. Always read the upcoming experiment carefully and thoroughly
before entering the laboratory.
2. Be in the lab and ready promptly when the lab begins.
3. Absolutely no food, beverages or chewing gums will be permitted inside the lab.
4. Wash you hands frequently during the lab and of course wash them twice at the end of the lab.
5. Should any injury occur, regardless how minor it is, report it immediately to your supervisor.
6. Never pick up any broken glassware with your bare hands, regardless of the size of the pieces.
7. Never put broken glasses in a regular garbage can. A special container will be provided
8. Make sure to label and read the labels of all chemicals which your are dealing with.
9. Never use reagents from unmarked bottles.
10. In any emergency, the fastest to way to get the supervisor attention is to SCREAM.
If you are not feeling well, report it immediately to your supervisor
II. Safety Guidance and Tips
A. Do Not Pipette By Mouth - Ever
You say, "But it's only water." Even if it is, how clean do you think that 4
glassware really is? Using disposable pipettes? I know lots of people who rinse them and put them back! Learn to use the pipette bulb or automated pipetter. Don't pipette by mouth at home either. Gasoline and kerosene should be obvious, but people get hospitalized or die every year, right? I know someone who used his mouth to start the suction on a waterbed to drain it. Do you know what they put in some waterbed additives?
B. Identify the Safety Equipment
And know how to use it! Given that some people (possibly you) will need them, know the locations of the fire blanket, extinguishers, eyewash, and shower. Ask for demonstrations! If the eyewash hasn't been used in a while the discoloration of the water is usually sufficient to inspire use of safety glasses.
C. Don't Taste or Sniff Chemicals
For many chemicals, if you can smell them then you are exposing yourself to a dose that can harm you! If the safety information says that a chemical should only be used inside a fume hood, then don't use it anywhere else. This isn't cooking class - don't taste your experiments! D. Don't Casually Dispose of Chemicals Down the Drain
Some chemicals can be washed down the drain, while others require a different method of disposal. If a chemical can go in the sink, be sure to wash it away rather than risk an unexpected reaction between chemical 'leftovers' later.
E. Don't Eat or Drink in Lab
It's tempting, but oh so dangerous... just don't do it!
F. Don't Play Mad Scientist
Don't haphazardly mix chemicals! Pay attention to the order in which chemicals are to be added to each other and do not deviate from the instructions. Even chemicals that mix to produce seemingly safe products should be handled carefully. For example, hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide will give you salt water, but the reaction could break your glassware or splash the reactants onto you if you aren't careful!
G. Take Data During Lab
Not after lab, on the assumption that it will be neater. Put data directly in your lab book rather than transcribing from another source (e.g., notebook or lab partner). There are lots of reasons for this, but the practical one is that it is much harder for the data to get lost in your lab book. For some experiments, it may be helpful to take data before lab.
5
No, I'm not telling you to dry-lab or cheat, but being able to project likely data will help you catch bad lab procedure before you are three hours or so into a project. Know what to expect. You should always read the experiment in advance. NOTE:Failure to follow these rules may automatically and without warning result in a deduction of marks. In repeated cases you may be asked to leave the laboratory.
III. Hazard Control Information
On this drawing, please mark the locations of the following equipment. There may be more that one item of each kind. Please mark them all. Walk around the lab to find each item. You may need help from your instructor or a technician. Here is the list of items to find:

1. All exit doors2. Fume hoods3. Fire extinguishers4. Eye wash stations
5. Fife blankets6. Emergency shower7. First aid kits8. Poster with safety instructions

The Typical Experiment has three to five separate sections as follows:
• Pre-Laboratory Assignment: Involves calculations closely connected with the laboratory. This must be completed before you come to the lab.
•Introduction: Provides general interest and background information and a summary of the experiment.
• Experimental Procedure: You must read through this before you come to your laboratory session, paying particular attention to safety information.
• Calculations: Some laboratory experiments have an example of typical calculations to help you in carrying out the ones required for your data.
• Report form: You must record your data on the report form as you acquire it. Never write your data on scrap paper with the intention of transferring it later to the report form. Although this may lead to a neater report form, there is a great danger that you will lose the data. (If your data have been lost you cannot perform the necessary calculations. At best, you will have to repeat the laboratory experiment. At worst, you will be given a failing grade for that experiment.)

EXPERIMENT 8
Qualitative & Quantitative Analysis of Caffeine in Omani Coffee by using HPLC with UV-Visible Diode
Array INTRODUCTIONHigh performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a widely used method of choice for the separation and quantification of mixtures of soluble compounds in liquids.Separation of the constituents in a mixture is controlled by the chemistry of the mobile phase and stationary-phase materials in the column as well as the detector type used.Many commercial brands of cola drinks and coffee are caffeinated. Caffeine is a polar compound containing UV-active chromophores and hence can be detected with a UV detector attached to the HPLC system. In this experiment you will utilize a HPLC system with a UV detector (measures UV absorbance at 254 nm) as an analytical tool for the separation, identification and quantification of caffeine in soda or brewed Omani coffee.The separation is carried out using a polar mobile phase (or eluent) and a non-polar stationary phase stationary phase. The non-polar stationary phase consist of long chain octadecyl hydrocarbon groups bonded to a silica support , often referred to as C-18 column.EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDUREMobile phase (Eluent)Freshly prepared 80:20 vol mix acetic acid (1M, pH 4.5) and methanolGlasswareThe glassware used should be cleaned, rinsed well with distilled water and finally with small quantities of methanol to remove the water.
Preparation of Caffeine stock and standardsWeigh accurately 100.0 mg of caffeine (to the nearest 0.1 mg) and transfer into a 50 mL volumetric flask. Dissolve in the mobile phase solution, dilute to volume with the mobile phase solution, and mix well. Prepare serial dilution of this stock solution to obtain standards of about 0.50, 0.25, 0.050 and 0.025 mg/ml. Use a 0.22μm HPLC disk filter to remove particulate material from all standards and samples before any injection. Inject duplicate of 15-μL aliquots of each of the serial caffeine standards and record the chromatograms. Record the retention time and the area under each peak in the standards. Make a plot of peak area against concentration of caffeine. Beverages. Analyze either soda or coffee. Obtain caffeinated and caffeine–free soda or coffee product. Place 10.0 mL of beverage in a 50 mL volumetric flask and use the mobile phase to take it to the mark. Mix the content of the flask by shaking and pour into a clean 100 mL beaker; and sonicate for 10 min. Filter the degassed sample through a 0.22μm HPLC disk filter. Inject a 15-μL aliquot into the HPLC system at least three times. AFTER AN INJECTION, DO NOT INJECT THE NEXT UNTIL YOU’RE SURE THE ENTIRE SAMPLE HAS ELUTED. From a comparison of the retention times of the constituents in the beverages with the retention time recorded for the standard caffeine solution, identify the caffeine peak in the chromatograms of the beverages. Record the area of the caffeine peak in the beverages and calculate the concentration of caffeine in your samples.Instrumental parameterColumn = Reversed phase C-18 column (preconditioned by flowing the mobile phase)Mobile phase: Freshly prepared and degassed 80: 20 vol mix 1M acetic acid (pH 4.5) and methanol.

Absorbance at low pH
To measure the absorbance of bromothymol blue solution at low pH take 1ml of
bromothymol blue solution in 100ml volumetric flask, add it a few drops of
concentrated HCl and then dilute it with distilled water. After addition of
concentrated HCl to this solution the color of indicator solution will turn yellow in
acidic medium. Take a few ml of this solution in a covet and then record or scan the
wavelength of this solution in the range from180nm to 600nm in order to find the
optimum wavelength for acidic color (λ1max).
Absorbance at High pH
To measure the absorbance of bromothymol blue solution at high pH take 1ml of
bromothymol blue solution in 100ml volumetric flask, add it a few ml of 6M sodium
hydroxide solution and then dilute it with distilled water. After addition of sodium
hydroxide solution to it the color of indicator solution will turn blue in basic medium.
Take a few ml of this solution in a covet and then record or scan the wavelength of

EXPERIMENT 11
Determination of Acetyl Salicylic Acid in an Aspirin Tablet by Using UV-VIS Spectrophotometric Method
Introduction
The most common quantitative method in UV-visible spectroscopy is single component
analysis. Here we analyze an analgesics tablet containing acetyl salicylic acid as the only
active ingredient.
Reagents
Acetyl salicylic acid, an analgesic tablet containing acetyl salicylic acid as the only active
ingredient (for example, aspirin)
Preparation of Solutions
a) Prepare a standard solution of acetyl salicylic acid
To prepare standard solution of acetyl salicylic acid dissolve 0.013g of acetyl
salicylic acid in distilled water and dilute upto the mark with distilled water using
100ml volumetric flask. (Make sure that the acetyl salicyclic acid is completely
dissolved. Use a magnetic stirrer if necessary.)
Procedure
Determine the tablet weight.
Break the tablet into small pieces and prepare a sample solution:
tablet material (about 50 mg in 500 ml distilled water)
Stir this solution for at least 30 min.
Use distilled water for the reference measurement in the wavelength range from
200 to 400 nm.
Measure the acetyl salicylic acid standard absorbance spectrum in a wavelength
range from 200 to 400 nm.
Use the filtered sample solution to measure the sample spectrum in the range from
200to 400 nm
Evaluation
1. Determine the wavelength of the absorbance maximum of your standard solution.
2. Get the absorbance value Astd λmax of your standard solution at the absorbance
maximum.
3. Calculate the molar concentration cstd of your acetyl salicylic acid standard
solution. The molecular weight of acetyl salicylic acid MW is 180.15 g / mol.
4. Determine the sample concentration using Beer’s law:
According to Beer’s law we determine the molar extinction coefficient ελ using the
tandard absorbance value Astd max first.
Get the absorbance value Asmp max of your sample solution at the absorbance
maximum.
Based on the molar extinction coefficient ελmax and the measured sample absorbance
Asmpλmax we can calculate the sample concentration.
Determine the total amount of acetyl salicylic acid contained in your tablet.
With the molecular weight of acetyl salicylic acid MW we can calculate the weight
