SOLVENT EXTRACTION Solvent extraction‚ also known as liquid extraction and partitioning‚ is a method to separate compounds based on their relative solubility in two different immiscible liquid‚ usually water and organic solvent. It is an extraction from one liquid phase to another liquid phrase. Liquid extraction is a basic technique in chemical laboratories‚ where it is performed using a separator funnel. This type of process is commonly performed after a chemical reaction as part of the work-up

Assignment Purification of a Mixture INTRODUCTION Mixtures obtained from the biosphere‚ lithosphere‚ hydrosphere or atmosphere can be industrially separated into their constituents. Petrol for example is obtained from crude oil found in the lithosphere. RESEARCH SKILLS When researching this assignment you will access a variety of secondary resources including web sites and textbooks. Please include a detailed bibliography You should also consider both the validity and reliability of your

Objective: To extract caffeine from tea powder using polar - nonpolar solvent extraction technique. Theory: The technique used to separate an organic compound from a mixture of compounds is called Extraction. Extraction process selectively dissolves one or more of the mixture compounds into a suitable solvent. The solution of these dissolved compounds is referred to as the Extract. Here the organic solvent dichloromethane is used to extract caffeine from an aqueous extract of tea leaves

foods‚ both the method as well as the solvents chosen to perform a complete‚ or close to complete extraction are important. If these two elements are not taken into consideration‚ the extraction may not be complete‚ or the extract may contain a large quantity of undesired impurities. The natural fats and oil are mixtures of glycerides of fatty acids. Fats and oils are naturally occurring organic compounds which belong to a large group of water insoluble substances called lipids. Lipids are relatively

Discussion: Extraction and crystallization- The purpose of this lab was to extract and crystallize compounds in a mixture using acids and bases. 1 gram of the unknown was dissolved into 30 mL of ethyl acetate. The mixture was then transferred to a separatory funnel. Using aqueous solutions of different pH we were able to separate organic acids‚ bases and neutral compounds from each other. Using three 10 mL portions of HCl‚ we reacted the HCl with the base in solution. This made it possible to

Introduction Water is necessary to life but it can be unhealthy too. In general‚ the water quality is poor in developing countries like Kenya. Water is a vector of diseases like yellow fever‚ diarrhea… Water purification is very important in these countries but people don’t have a lot of time to spare‚ they work or they are in the field and in general women must spend a significant amount of time walking to collect water. So we need to find a quick‚ easy‚ and economic solution that is as simple

“Solar Treated Purification” Intorduction: A. Background of the study: In our world today‚ purified water is the one that most of the people drink everyday especially those who live in cities. Water purification is the process of removing undesirable chemicals‚ biological contaminants‚ suspended solids and gases from contaminated water. The goal is to produce water fit for a specific purpose. Most water is purified for human consumption (drinking water)‚ but water purification may also be designed
