1. A student neglected to add sodium carbonate when extracting the tea leaves with hot water. Yet a very high yield of caffeine was obtained. The crystals melted at 202-214°C. Explain. • The sodium carbonate is supposed to be added when extracting the tea leaves with hot water in order to help purify the caffeine. So since the student neglected to add sodium carbonate the caffeine won’t be pure but the student would still be able to recover a large amount of caffeine. The literature melting point

Lab 5 The Diffraction Grating Chinua McDonald Objective: To measure the wavelength of light with a diffraction grating. Theory: The two types of diffraction gratings are the transmission and reflection gratings. They are made by ruling on a piece of glass or metal a number of evenly spaced lines with a fine diamond point. Diffraction phenomena can be analyzed in terms of Huygens’ principle‚ according to which every point on the wave front of a wave should be considered as a source

Solvent/Water Trap Diagram Rodney Atwaters Halle Bair May 28‚ 2013 Chemistry 36100 Introduction The purpose of this lab was to produce benzoic acid by mixing sodium benzoate with hydrochloric acid. The Hydrochloric acid used in the experiment was a stock solution made by mixing HCl Acid and deionized water. HCl acid‚ historically called‚ muriatic acid or spirits of salt‚ hydrochloric acid is produced from sulfuric acid and common salt‚ NaCl (Princeton.edu). Since the early 1900 ’s‚ sodium

Background: Chemistry is the branch of science that deals with the identification of the substances of which matter is composed. Chemistry has to do with many things we use today. For example‚ fireworks are made by the chemical combining magnesium‚ titanium‚ copper‚ aluminum‚ strontium‚ or other periodical elements. Things also like making plastic‚ jewelry
