Every solution has either has an acid or basic trait. The acid or basic trait in a solution are called pH level. pH is a scale that is used to determine if solution is acidic ‚basic‚ or neutral. During Living Environment class‚ we conducted a experiment that allowed us to measure the pH levels of 3 solutions. We were split into groups and each person had to bring a household solution from around the house. There certain materials that were needed to conduct the experiment .The following

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

determine the pH values of acids‚ bases‚ and buffers of distilled water and 10.0 buffer using measured concentrations of Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and/or Hydrochloric acid (HCl). Acid is a compound typically having a bitter taste and capable of nullifying alkalis and releases hydrogen ion when added to a solution‚ or containing an atom that can accept a pair of electrons from a base (McKinley‚ Dean O’Loughlin‚ & Stouter Bidle‚ 2016). Bases are water-soluble and are harsh tasting compounds‚ that are capable

last lab is a method for purifying solids. This week we will learn how to perform a distillation‚ a method for purifying liquids. Distillation is a common wet-chemical technique for separating organic compounds based on differences in boiling points. Upon heating a mixture of organic compounds‚ the more volatile compounds (those with the lowest boiling point) will vaporize first (i.e. be converted to gases)‚ leaving the higher-boiling compounds behind in the mixture. By isolating the vapor produced

Extraction of Caffeine from Tea Leaves Introduction Caffeine is soluble in boiling water and as a result it is easily extracted from tea bags by steeping in hot water. This process leaves behind the water insoluble portions of the tea bag. However‚ water extracts more than just caffeine‚ so a final separation is done with an organic solvent that will dissolve primarily caffeine. The organic solvent used in this experiment is Dichloromethane (CH₂Cl₂). Dichloromethane is less polar than water

Group 5‚ 1CHEM‚ Department of Chemistry‚ College of Science‚ University of Santo Tomas‚ España‚ Manila‚ 1015 August 24‚ 2012 Abstract A mixture can be homogenous or heterogenous‚ depending if the mixture has been uniform throughout the mixture or not. One of the objectives is to separate C10H8‚ NaCl and SiO2‚ and determine their percentages in the mixture. Since the mixture

Extraction of caffeine from tea bags 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 was dried

Acid-Base Titration Background Information A titration is a controlled addition of one substance into another substance. In an acid-base titration‚ the experimenter will add a base of known concentration to an acid of unknown concentration (or vice-versa). The goal of the titration is usually to use the substance of known concentration to determine the concentration of the other substance. In order to run a titration‚ the following materials are needed: • A buret filled with the base (or acid) of
