Steam Distillation of Lemongrass Oil I. Introduction When a mixture of cyclohexane and toluene is distilled‚ the boiling point of these two miscible liquids is between the boiling points of each of the pure components. By contrast‚ if a mixture of benzene and water (Immiscible liquids) is distilled‚ the boiling point of the mixture will be found below the boiling point of each pure component. Since the two liquids are essentially insoluble in each other‚ the benzene molecules in a droplet of

CHE 317 "Simple Distillation" Interpretation of Results and the Report In addition to learning the technique of performing a distillation‚ you have had the opportunity to observe at first hand the behavior of a reasonably pure compound in the distillation process. You also measured quantities (temperatures) whose magnitudes you did not know beforehand. Title (be specific) Your Name Date Course Number (CHE 317-01) Introduction (give a brief statement about what a simple distillation is‚ what it is

Description If you ever painted a wall‚ then‚ you have encountered toluene. Toluene has many uses‚ and it is a chemical compound we use more often than we think. In this lesson‚ we will be learning all about toluene‚ which is an organic chemical compound. !!!Toluene: Structure and Formula Have you ever used or smelled paint thinners? If you have‚ then that is how we can describe the smell of toluene. Toluene is one of the ingredients used in manufacturing many commercial products‚ like paints

Steam Distillation – Clove Oil Abstract: In this experiment‚ a situ method steam distillation was performed and essential oils were isolated from cloves. Once the oils were obtained‚ extraction techniques were used to extract a crude‚ eugenol‚ and acetyleugenol product sample. These samples were submitted for GC analysis and the normalization area percents were calculated to confirm their purity; for the crude sample it was 93.95% eugenol and 6.05% acetyleugenol‚ for the eugenol sample it

DISTILLATION ABSTRACT Distillation‚ one of the most significant method for separating a liquid mixture and its components‚ is a process that relies on differences by the ease of vaporization of the components. The purpose of this process is either the separation of a mixture of volatile components from nonvolatile materials is carried out by a simple distillation in which the material is placed to distill and heated‚ the vapor from the substance is removed and condensed. In this activity

MAKING PROCESS AND DISTILLING PROCESS Vodka is defined in the United States Standards of Identity as “neutral spirits so distilled‚ or so treated after distillation with charcoal or other materials‚ as to be without distinctive character‚ aroma‚ taste‚ or color.” As Vodka is a neutral spirit‚ it means that it can be obtained by the distillation of any product with fermentable carbohydrates on it‚ like grains (rye‚ corn or wheat) or products like potatoes‚ beets or sugar beets; even grapes. Nowadays

EXPERIMENT 2: BATCH DISTILLATION AT CONSTANT REFLUX OBJECTIVE: To operate a batch distillation unit at constant reflux. To examine the change in top and bottom composition over time in a batch distillation. PROCEDURES: 1. Perform the general start-up procedures (Section 4). Refer appendix 1. 2. Record initial volume and refractive index of the liquid mixture in the reboiler. 3. Set the heater power to 1.5kW. 4. Set reflux timer to 10 second for set 1 and 30 second for set 2. ( Note: Set 1:

phosphoric acid‚ and one boiling chip‚ were all added to a 10 mL round bottom flask that would be attached to the end of an assembled simple distillation set up. A sand bath was placed atop a hot plate‚ and the simple distillation mechanism was lowered into the sand bath with the bottom most piece (the 10 mL round bottom flask) submerged about half way. The distillation process was completed after a sufficient amount of liquid distillate had accumulated within the Hickman Still Head. Smaller volumes were

B. Results and Discussion: C. Experimental: 24 mL of 4-methylcyclohexanol‚ 5mL of phosphoric acid‚ and 1mL of concentrated sulfuric acid was added to a 250 mL round bottom flask and mixed thoroughly with a magnetic stirrer. A simple distillation set up was installed with a 250mL round

One major observation made throughout this experiment was during the steam distillation. As the steam distillation started and the solution in the flask began heating‚ it was clear that too much stopcock grease was used around the glassware. The grease from the connecting ends of the three way connecting tube was melting and seeping into the clove and water solution in the two necked round bottom flask. The solution in the flask was immediately discarded and repeated with clean glassware and a very
