Introduction Extraction involves dissolving a compound or compounds either from a solid into a solvent or from a solution into another solvent. Extraction is a method used to purify a substance by removing the impurities that was added to it. A solvent- solvent extraction is a type of extraction that is most commonly done by using two substances that are typically insoluble with each other. An acid-base extraction is a solvent-solvent extraction‚ in almost every case one of the solvents is water

Isolation of Acetyleugenol (Clove Oil) from Cloves Purpose In this experiment‚ you will obtain the essential oil from cloves by steam distillation. You will then separate a component (acetyleugenol) from the oil by liquid-liquid extraction. Finally‚ you will isolate the acetyleugenol by using a rotovap for reduced pressure distillation‚ which will remove the organic solvent (dichloromethane). Background Whole cloves contain between 14% and 20% by weight of essential oils‚ but

Extraction of Caffeine from Tea Leaves Marc Tugaoen‚ Kristine Vanzuela‚ Rafael Villanueva‚ Justeen Wong Department of Chemistry‚ University of Santo Tomas‚ Manila‚ Philippines Abstract This experiment has been divided into 4 set-ups‚ first was the solid-liquid extraction‚ next was the liquid-liquid extraction‚ then the sublimation and last was the melting point determination. The solid-liquid and liquid-liquid extraction were both done during the first meeting‚ the DCM layer was filtered and

Unintentional messages are so common in my life that it’s almost impossible not to give one. One incident I can recall is when my sister made some strawberry pancakes one morning. As she sat the plate on the table I said “Ugh” in disgust. She just smirked at me. Then when I started eating I realized how good they were. Probably the best strawberry pancakes I’ve ever eaten. To be honest they were so good I got up and exited the room. Not because they weren’t appetizing but simply to exaggerate the

A. Title – Acid-Base Extraction with Separatory Funnel B. Introduction – The main objective of the experiment was the extract an acid‚ a base‚ and a neutral compound from a 2:1:1 compound of benzoic acid‚ p-nitroaniline‚ and azobenzene. In theory‚ an extraction technique based on phase distribution should allow two immiscible solvents to separate with a portion of the solute distributed into each. Using a separatory funnel‚ acids were extracted with bases (NaOH)‚ and bases were extracted

Purpose This experiment deals with separating substances. The objective was to become familiar with the methods of separating substances from one another using decantation‚ extraction‚ sublimation techniques. Brief Introduction This experiment was set to teach research students different methods of separating substances from one another. Materials that are not uniform in composition are set to be impure or heterogeneous and are called mixtures. The separation of the components of mixtures is

Extraction of Caffeine from Tea Leaves Santos‚ Raphael‚ Samson‚ Nonia Carla‚ *Tabora‚ Brylle‚ Tan‚ Kate Michal Department of Biological Sciences‚ University of Santo Tomas‚ Manila‚ Philippines Abstract Tea leaves are natural products that are harvested from agriculture. Caffeine‚ on the other hand‚ is a stimulant that has been shown to speed up the time of reaction‚ increase alertness‚ and improve one’s concentration. What we did in this experiment was to extract the alkaloid caffeine content

Preparation of SKEO The extraction of S. khuzistanica was performed by hydro distillation and clevenger apparatus for 5 hours. Once extraction was completed‚ the resulted essential oil was dehydrated using sodium sulfate (Merck). The essential oil was stored at temperature of 4ºC until using (12). In order to provide different concentrations of the extract‚ Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was used. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis of essential oil Isolation and measurement of the sample

DNA extraction in Watermelon and Bananas Abstract During this experiment the researcher investigated the differing amounts of DNA present in bananas and watermelon. So that the researcher could do this‚ and accurately record the amounts‚ the researcher liquefied the fruits in a blender‚ added water and salt to them‚ and the added laundry detergent before using contact solution as an enzyme. Rubbing alcohol was then poured into the mixture and the DNA was extracted and

There are massive problems with manipulating the DNA. DNA manipulating can cause of the ethical issues or belief that god should have ultimate power over nature; safety issues DNA manipulation can bring long term negative effects‚ detrimental effect on genetic diversity‚ high price‚ and will disrupt the natural ecology. There might be some advantages with the manipulation DNA such as eliminating illness and disease in unborn children‚ but it has really small possibility to happen. Even if it success
