The fragments of a marble statue of Diadoumenos (youth trying a fillet around his head) is located in the Met museum in the Roman and Greek exhibition across from Marble statue of a wounded Amazon . The statue stands around 6 feet tall, about the size of an average person and is made out of marble. The Diadoumenos statue was created around ca. A.D. 69–96 by Polykleitos who was an ancient Greek sculptor . He is considered to many as one of the greatest sculptor of the Classical period. One of his many famous sculpture is the bronze male nude known as the Doryphoros . It is from the late Archaic to early Classical Period. Both Polykleitos and the Greeks were thoughtful of the proportion of the human body. They applied genomic ratio to get the proportion and the true anatomy of the human body. Many Greek artists followed one rule where they celebrated the human body by representing it very youthful and in nude. The Diadoumenos statue depicts the Classical Greek pose of contrappo...

Preparation of Dibromosuccinic Acid- Post Lab 9

Observations 1.       Within 5 minutes the color of the solution starts to become colorless. 2.       We added around .5ml of the bromine stock solution to the solution while it was on the water bath. 3.       The product of this experiment was in the vacuum filter for 20 minutes. Data Fumaric acid: 0.19 Bromine: 2.7 ml Final weight of Fumaric acid: .59g Theoretical yield: 0.0028 mol x 275.88 g/mol = 0.77g Percentage yield: .59g/0.77g x 100%= 76% Melting point 250-255 ◦C Question Which stereoisomer of dibromosuccinic acid (racemic melting point = 170 o C, meso melting point = 290 o C) did you obtain? The stereoisomer of dibromosuccinic is Meso. The melting point of our experiment product is between 250-255 ◦C. It is not exact meso melting point however, it is closer to meso than racemic melting point.
