Report
Report for Chem 101 Laboratory Exercise #6 Extraction of caffeine from Tea 1 Using Microsoft Word, students are to insert responses in all yellow highlighted areas. It is recommended that the report be completed without changing font size, column width, row width, margins, and highlights. The completed report must be uploaded to the CHEM 101 lab Brightspace site as a .pdf file by the due date posted on Brightspace. All answers must be the student’s own work without assistance from others. Only reports which are completed using the template will be marked. Name: _ _ Lab Section: __ Quad: __ Date: _ _ Abstract (max. 3 lines) By using the liquid-liquid extraction process on No Name tea, the caffeine can be extracted from tea leaves. The weight of tea leaves and weight of caffeine, can be used to find the weight % of caffeine. The weight % of caffeine is 2.56%. 1 Data/Results Table 1. Experimental data and calculated values Extraction and isolation Weight of tea leaves - No Name 2.886g Weight of caffeine 0.074g Weight % caffeine in tea 2.56% Lethal dose for a 700 g rat 1.8g approximately 2 cups of tea 1 Algebraic Equation Weight % of caffeine in tea = [(weight of caffeine)/(weight of tea leaves)]*100 Discussion Respond to the following: Give one shortcoming of this experiment, not a personal error, that could contribute to an inaccurate value of caffeine that was in the teabag. (max 3 lines). Some things that could contribute to an inaccurate value of caffeine is impurities in the tea bag, changes in temperature, or incomplete extraction/crystallization/precipitation. Conclusions (max 1 line) The weight of tea leaves and weight of caffeine, are find using the liquid-liquid extraction process. The weight % of caffeine is 2.56%.
