Learn More About This Simulation

Practice makes perfect! In this simulation you will learn how to perform the ceric ammonium nitrate test for alcohols on two different samples. You will begin by attempting to process the samples through the test by yourself, although you can always ask for help from your trusty lab assistants: Dr. Ali and Dr. One. Will you perform the test correctly?

Determine the Alcoholic Sample

Familiarize yourself with your lab and identify the relevant reagent you will use from the chemicals provided. Perform the ceric ammonium nitrate test on our two mystery samples. By observing a change in color, determine which sample contains alcohol. Stuck? Dr. One and Dr. Ali will help you with any theory or practical questions throughout.

Perform the ceric ammonium nitrate test

Learn how to process food samples through the ceric ammonium nitrate test as if you were in a lab! Don’t worry about making mistakes; in this lab we can reset the workbench with the press of a button! You can always ask for step-by-step guidance from Dr. Ali and Dr. One if you get stuck. After performing the steps correctly you will get a colorful result!

Interpret the results

Combine the theory of the ceric ammonium nitrate test with your observations to interpret your results Which compound tested positive for alcohols?

“They did the simulation at home, then completed the in-person lab within 30 minutes, no questions asked, and passed the quiz with flying colors.”

Lewis Mattin
PhD
Lecturer in Human Physiology
University of Westminster

"I saw some of the students who clearly didn’t necessarily like sitting there reading a book discover they could turn on Labster and keep up with the rest of the class because it spoke to them.

Melody McGill
Curriculum Coordinator
Modesto City Schools

"Having something that's engaging for the students gives teachers that opportunity to breathe and get excited again. Because they're seeing the kids light up, they're seeing the kids engage with content."

"The question always is, ‘Can we demonstrate that the students are meeting course outcomes?’ Check! We can do that.”

Dr. Melody Esfandiari
Chemistry Lecturer
San José State University

"We surveyed over 400 students. More than 90% thought Labster was easy to navigate, and that it was fun, but more importantly, most of them felt confident that they could execute the labs in person. And that confidence is a big deal."

“The Labster simulations get students to do things, and they're not just sitting there consuming a webinar where their mind can drift. They become an active participant in that learning experience.”
