To find the Determination of Contents of Tooth Powder

JAWAHAR NAVODAYA VIDYALAY,SONIPAT(HR) Chemistry Investigatory Project

PROJECT REPORT

To find the Determination of Contents of Tooth Powder

Exam. Roll No. :

Class                 :

Name              :

CERTIFICATE

This is to certify that this bonafide project work in the subject of chemistry has been done by ______________   of class XII science in the academic year 2015-2016  and submitted to AISSCE practical examination conducted by CBSE at Embassy of India School Moscow  on _______________

TEACHER IN CHARGE               PRINCIPAL

INTERNAL EXAMINER           EXTERNAL EXAMINER

Aim : To find the Determination of Contents of Tooth Powder/To test the acid and basic radicals in the toothpowder

Theory:

Toothpowder is a powder used with hands or with a toothbrush to clean and maintain the aesthetics and health of teeth. Toothpowder is used to promote oral hygiene: it can aid in the removal of dental plaque and food from the teeth, aid in the elimination and/or masking of halitosis and deliver active ingredients such as fluoride or xylitol to prevent tooth and gum disease

While the exact formula of each brand of toothpaste is proprietary, most toothpowders contain the same basic ingredients. These include:

Fluoride: Perhaps the most important toothpowders ingredient is fluoride. Fluoride incorporates itself into tooth enamel making your teeth more resistant to acids produced by plaque bacteria, as well as acids found in fruit juices, soda (both regular and diet) and certain foods. In toothpowders, fluoride is found in the form of sodium monofluorophosphate, stannous fluoride, or sodium fluoride.

Abrasives: Abrasives give toothpowders its cleaning power. They remove stains and plaque, as well as polish teeth. Common abrasives include calcium phosphates, alumina, calcium carbonate, and silica. Toothpowders should be abrasive enough to remove plaque and stains, but not abrasive enough to damage tooth enamel. Damaged tooth enamel also causes yellowing as the thinned enamel reveals the yellowish dentin layer below. Over the years, manufacturers have been quietly reducing the abrasiveness of their toothpowders.

Preservatives: Preservatives prevent the growth of microorganisms in toothpowders and eliminate the need to refrigerate toothpowders. Common preservatives include sodium benzoate, methyl paraben, and ethyl paraben.

Flavoring Agents: These are added to improve the taste of toothpowders. You may have noticed that toothpowders have very strong flavoring.This is necessary to cover up the horrid taste of most detergents, especially SLS.

Sweeteners: Sweeteners also improve the taste of toothpowders. Most toothpowder sweeteners are artificial and contribute very little to cavity formation. Saccharin is a common toothpowder sweetener

RESULT: The given Salt contains  carbonate  (CO32 –)   &  Phospahte PO43– as anion  & Calcium Ca2+as cation.

Conclusion:

Several of the ingredients in toothpastes are found by some environmentally damaging or hazardous to the personal health.

These ingredients include:

•Artificial flavoring 
• Artificial colors 
• Triclosan 
• Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) 
• Detergents 
• Fluoride
• Preservatives such as Methylparaben and Ethylparaben-parabens 
• Pyrophosphate

Homemade tooth powders are made by mixing  3 parts baking soda (cleanser) thoroughly with 1 part salt (the abrasive). As a direct result of these concerns, some people have started making their own tooth paste instead, which -while still not completely ecologic due to the use of baking soda- still eliminates much environmentally or health damaging ingredients. Also, commercial toothpowders are made which are less or even non-environmentally damaging. Such preparations are made from herbal resins, propolis and myrrh.

30. Write the structures of main products when benzenediazonium chloride reacts with 

      the following reagents.

a) CuCN
b) CH3CH2OH
c) KI

Section- D

The following questions are case based questions. Each question has an internal choice and carries 4(1+1+2) marks each. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

 

31. Benzene ring in aniline is highly activated. This is due to the sharing of lone pair of nitrogen with the ring which results in increase in the electron density on the ring and hence facilitates the electrophilic attack. The substitution mainly takes place at Ortho and para positions because electron density is more at Ortho and para positions. On reaction with aqueous bromine all the ortho and para position get substituted resulting  in the formation of 2,4,6- tribromoaniline. To get a monobromocompound, the amino group is acetylated before bromination. After bromination, the bromoacetanilide is acid hydrolysed to give the desired halogenated amine.     

a) Why does -NHgroup facilitates electrophilic attack in aniline?
b) Explain why: in aniline, the substitution mainly takes place at Ortho and Para positions.
c) Show the conversion of benzene into aniline.

 

32. In amines the N atoms of the amino group are SP3hybridised. Amines readily lose its electron pair and act as a base. In aliphatic amines ,the alkyl group tends to increase the electron density on the nitrogen atom due to the +I effect. In aromatic amines, the basic strengths are influenced by the presence of an electron withdrawing group at the O-, m- and p- position in the ring.

a) Lower member of aliphatic amines are soluble in water .Why?
b) Out of (CH3)3N  and and (CH3)2NH which one is more basic in aqueous solution?
c) Which isomer of C3H9N which does not react with Hinsberg’s reagent.

 

 

Section- E

The following questions are long answer type and carry five marks each two questions have internal choice.

 

33. An organic compound A with molecular formula C7 H7NO reacts with Br2/aq. KOH to give compound 'B', which upon reaction with NaNO2 and HCl at 00 Celsius gives 'C'. Compound 'C' 

on heating with CH3CH2OH gives hydrocarbon 'D'.  compound 'B' on further reaction with Brwater gives white precipitate of compound 'E'. Identify the compound A,B,C,D and 'E'.

Also justify your answer by giving relevant chemical equations.
