You will get better yield when you add the sulfuric acid along the reaction using stirring. The reaction will start even without sulfuric acid, but it stops when there is enough water, then you need to add some of the acid. There are a lot less side reactions that way.
@@user255 If by not very dangerous you mean corrosive, pungent, bad-smelling fumes, and causing your cells to collapse on the molecular level then yes.
synthesized this exact compound during ochem 2. Good old days.

Never distill the dried liquid with the hydrated desiccant still in there because it will give back the water to it when heated.
Only if the hydrate decomposes below the boiling point of the distillate.
@@yield_yt no that’s a general rule, it’s something different if u have dry desiccant
Nice! Your channel is a goldmine of great chem. 👍👍
Does it have to change colors?
What temperature do you reflux it at?
Please, can I ask you about preparing ester oil?
Nice. Here's one for the algo
Excellent video as always 🎉🎉🎉
what about indole sir
How are you bruh ?
Too bad RUclips doesn't offer Scratch & Sniff!
Severe itching and burns? More like goodbye to whatever body part you spilled it on.
Acetic acid? No. It really isn't that strong.
@@user255 When dilute yes. But pKa does not equate to how dangerous an acid is.
@@Auroral_Anomaly I didn't claim so, however it still isn't that dangerous.

@@user255 You are probably thinking of vinegar. This ain’t vinegar, this is glacial acetic acid.
