Dr. Hartings asked to collect through precipitation. When I worked on the QDs [User:Matt Hartings/Notebook/AU Biomaterials Design Lab/2014/02/06|last year]], about 200mL of chilled ethanol was added to the mixture of about 70mL. The mixture I have now is around 12mL so I only added 17ml of ethanol to 6mL of the solutions (one prepared from HgCl2 and the other from HgNO3).

Procedure

The same procedure of synthesis was used. The variac this time was set on 17/100 to match a temperature around 30C. I added only 25microliter of NaOH this time, so the pH was set around 9 as it is supposed to be according to the paper I attached earlier last week.

Dr. Hartings asked to collect through precipitation. When I worked on the QDs last year, about 200mL of chilled ethanol was added to the mixture of about 70mL. The mixture I have now is around 12mL so I only added 17ml of ethanol to 6mL of the solutions (one prepared from HgCl2 and the other from HgNO3).
