Simple Distillation
Title: Preparation and purification ethyl alcohol
Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to form a yeast mixture with water, organic compound like sucrose, Ba (OH) 2 for fermentation process, and use simple distillation method to purification from the fermentation mixture.
Abstract and Theory: There are many techniques that are used to purify liquid. The one that is going to use for this lab is simple distillation. It is a process of which separating a mixture based on the tendency of the mixture to vaporize into a boiling liquid. For this particular experiment, a disaccharide carbohydrate sugar like sucrose will mix with yeast a microorganism, water and Ba(OH)2 to form a liquid mixture. The microorganism yeast will convert the sugar

Added 1/2 pack of yeast and a few ml of water in a 100 ml beaker and mixed to form paste. 2. Added water until the overall volume reach about 50 ml so the yeast had adequate nutrient and mixed the solution. 3. Added .35g of Na2 PO4 in the yeast mixture as a nutrient source. 4. Transferred the mixture into a 500 ml round bottom flask. 5. Added 51.5 g of sucrose in 200 ml of water and mixed the solution. 6. Transferred the solution to the yeast mixture, swirl the flask, and mixed all the compounds. 7. Added a few ml of Ba (OH) 2 in a test tube for the fermentation reaction. 8. Closed the flask with a rubber stopper with a glass tube that reached the Ba (OH) 2 solution for the fermentation process.
Week two: 9. Added 10 g of Celite to the 500 ml flask to help prevented clogged in the yeast mixture and mixed it. 10. Waited 5 minutes for the solid descend on the bottom of the flask. 11. Transferred the mixture into a large Buchner funnel with the filter flask connected to the vacuum filtration system for filtration. 12. Collected and transferred the filter ferment liquid in a 500 ml round bottom flask and Added a few boiling chips to aid the boiling

    For solution A, the 1% sugar solution, 5 grams of sugar were added to a 250ml graduated cylinder and then tap water was added up to the 250ml mark. A small piece of plastic wrap was placed over the top of the graduated cylinder and the solution was mixed. Next, the contents were poured into a small saucepan over the stove. The graduated cylinder was then filled with 250 more milliliters of water, and then poured into the saucepan as well. The mixture was then heated on the stove and stirred until the sugar was dissolved. Once this happened, the solution was removed from the saucepan, poured into a container, and labeled as 1% sugar solution.…

    When we experimented we set out all of our materials. Our materials were a fermentation bottle, one rubber stopper, one bubbler, one measuring beaker, 2 ml of yeast, 10 ml of warm water, and 30 ml of corn syrup. The first step we took was taking the measuring beaker, measuring 10 ml of warm water, and adding the 10 ml of warm water to the fermentation bottle. We then took the measuring beaker again, measured 2 ml of yeast, and added the 2ml of yeast to the warm water in the fermentation bottle. After that, we mixed both yeast and water gently until it was thoroughly dissolved. Then we took our measuring beaker again, measured 30 ml of corn syrup, and added the corn syrup to the mixture in the fermentation bottle. Soon after that, we swirled our mixture together. Then we put the rubber stopper on the fermentation bottle. We then took our bubbler and filled the bubbler with water until the water settled into the bottom and up to fill the two lines. We then inserted the bubbler…
