We’re going back to the lab! So far we’ve learned some important lab techniques that organic chemists might use day to day, like chromatography and proton NMR, but there are even more to learn. In this episode of Crash Course Organic...

The first laboratory technique that we will learn together is a very simple one, filtration. This is how we separate a mixture of liquids and solids. There are two common ways a chemist will perform filtration, those being gravity...

Now that we have covered some important separation techniques, let's take a look at a purification technique. Sometimes a chemical reaction will produce a solid, which can precipitate from solution. But these crystals typically contain...
