Experiment 2: Isolation of Eugenol from Cloves Background; Readings on Vapor pressure‚ Raoult’s Law from TRO: A mixture of the essential oils‚ eugenol and acetyleugenol‚ will be steam distilled from cloves. These compounds are isolated from aqueous distillate by extraction into dichloromethane. The dichloromethane solution is shaken with aqueous sodium hydroxide‚ which will react with eugenol‚ to yield the sodium salt of eugenol in the basic

Analysis of an Unknown Mixture Performed: 2/13/14 Submitted: 3/3/14 Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to separate and identify the two unknown compounds. The sample used was 105 and it contain 2-propanol and 2-heptanone. IR spectrums were taken of the contents of the second and sixth test tubes and showed the presence of an OH functional group and a small amount of ketone in test tube two and a large presence of ketone in test tube six. The average boiling points of the test tubes

Most materials in our world are mixtures. Very few materials are pure substances. The art of separating mixtures is important because it enables us to isolate pure substances. Mixtures are either homogeneous or heterogeneous. To separate a mixture there is not only one‚ but several different methods used. A mixture is a physical blend of two or more substances. An important characteristic of mixtures is that their composition may change. There are two types of mixtures however‚ Homogeneous and Heterogeneous

In the experiment of distillation we separated two miscible liquids. The purpose of distillation is to identify and purify compounds. We began our experiment by setting up an apparatus for macroscale simple distillation. We used 60 ml of Cyclohexane/ Toluene. We began with the temperature at 50 degrees Celsius. Unfortunately‚ we reached an error when the compounds evaporated too rapidly. The compounds evaporated so quickly that we lost data from 2 ml to 13 ml. The heat was lowered and as a result

can either be a solid (example: gold)‚ a liquid (example: hydrogen) or a gas (example: Hydrogen). Matter can be classified as either a mixture or a pure substance or a mixture. There are two types of mixtures a homogenous mixture and a heterogenous mixture. A homogenous mixture is a mixture that has been thoroughly combined and has been turned into a solution. A heterogenous is a mixture in which the particles has not been thoroughly combined. All mixtures can be separated to get the back to its original

Distillation is a commonly used method for purifying liquids and separating mixtures of liquids into their individual components. Familiar examples include the distillation of crude fermentation broths into alcoholic spirits such as gin and vodka‚ and the fractionation of crude oil into useful products such as gasoline and heating oil. In the organic lab‚ distillation is used for purifying solvents and liquid reaction products. To understand distillation‚ first consider what happens upon heating

All about Distillation Distillation is a process that is used to purify a lot of substances on a domestic as well as commercial basis. It is very interesting to know about the process in detail as it is a natural process. The story begins when a liquid or solid state of mater responds to the heat in environment. The heat makes the liquid state or solid state of matter to convert into gas state. Liquid Gas (Vaporization) Solids

Simple Distillation Experimental Organic Chemistry: A Miniscale and Microscale Approach. 4th Edition. By Gilbert and Martin. Section: 4.4 Introduction: Distillation is a technique used to purify various liquids. In a simple distillation‚ a liquid is boiled and the vapors work through the apparatus until they reach the condenser where they are cooled and reliquified. Liquids are separated based upon their differences in boiling point in which each pure substance is at least greater than 40-50
