EXTRACTION OF CAFFEINE FROM TEA LEAVES ABSTRACT Caffeine extraction from the commercial tea leaves (Lipton Yellow Label Tea) that was done is multiple extraction. 4 tea bags were used in the experiment; tea leaves were weighed having 8.5333 grams. The leaves were boiled in a beaker with 150ml of water; the aqueous tea extract was transferred in a seperatory funnel mixed with DCM (20ml)‚ done thrice. The DCM layer was washed with 20ml 6M NaOH in the seperatory funnel; the organic layer

Equilibrium and Acid Base Test Review: May 2012 Things to know: 1. Explain DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM. Why does a reaction at equilibrium look like it is NOT reacting? 2. Are all reactions equilibrium reactions? What assumptions do we make when we say that a reaction does NOT take place or that it is UNIDIRECTIONAL and goes 100% to completion 3. Be able to sketch a graph of the following (assuming that you start with all reactants and no products) : a. A reaction that really doesn’t do anything

For my project‚ I had to create my own acid-base indicator and find out what happens when it is placed in an acidic solution (vinegar) and a basic solution (dissolved baking soda). I chose my indicator to be a fruit because fruits can be very effective at determining how acidic or basic a substance is. My fruit was a blueberry‚ but I couldn’t use raw blueberries because it’s not going to give me the best results. I had to make blueberry juice. I did this by placing several blueberries in a blender

Acid-base titration Aim To study the titration curve of a strong base-strong acid‚ strong base-weak acid and weak acid-strong base titrations Introduction Acid-base titrations are based on the neutralization reaction between the analyte and an acidic or basic titrant. When an acid and a base are present in a stoichiometric amount e.g. 1 mole HCl added to 1 mole NaOH‚ this means that the equivalent point has been reached in an acid-base system. The end point of an acid-base titration can be

preparation and stability of liquid Paraffin Emulsion Abstract This study describes the preparation of a Liquid Paraffin Emulsion from Paraffin oil‚ Emulsifying agents and Distilled water. This report will also evaluate the stability of the Liquid Paraffin Emulsion depending on how the emulsion is produced and whether using different methods of mixing will produce a more stable Paraffin Emulsion. Introduction An emulsion is a mixture of two or more liquids that are normally not formed

It’s a Tuesday. I’m finishing my workout at my neighborhood gym. I walk into the locker room‚ throw my clothes off‚ and head to the showers. The water is warm. I’m feeling like a real go-getter. The endorphins‚ the steam – it’s relaxing. Veeery relaxing. I take a handful of the shower gel that the gym supplies in buckets and start lathering up. I’m making sure things are clean down there. Really‚ really clean. (Not really‚ readers – I’m jerking off. Duh.) So I’m a showerbater; I admit it. I like

Chemistry A Rap 1 4/6/12 Acid and Base Report If someone were to ask the common teenager in the US‚ “What’s acid?” they would probably respond with something akin to “It’s that one drug that makes you see stuff that isn’t really there and just kinda makes you crazy”. And if that same someone was to ask that same teenager‚ “What’s a base?” their response would most likely have something to do with either baseball‚ or freeze-tag. The thing is‚ most people don’t really understand the most common
