In this experiment, caffeine is isolated by extraction from water to CH2Cl2 followed by evaporation of the CH2Cl2 . Describe (in no more than 3 sentences) an alternative method for removing caffeine from tea, i.e., how is decaffeinated tea typically made?
Homework Answers
DCM extraction of caffeine is not preferred as the residual DCM after extraction in the tea is harmful to human health and DCM is not good for human health. Hence, little costly method can be used to extract Caffeine from the tea.
At 304.1 o K and 72.8 atm pressure CO2 become supercritical fluid. And thi is used extraction of caffeine from the tea. Tea and CO2 are together taken to the higher temperature and pressure. And then extracted caffeine is removed by removing co2.

Introduction: Pre-lab Questions Turn in typed responses in the beginning of lab. Answer in complete sentences. Show your work in pen where applicable. 1. What other compounds are extracted along with caffeine into the tea? Use what you know about the relative polarity of the functional groups within these compounds to determine the final destination of the following compounds: cellulose, tannins, chlorophylls, sodium carbonate. Do the majority of these compounds end up in the tea bag, filtered solid, aqueous layer,...

Based on solubility, density, and polarity information what will happen if a caffeine extraction and sublimation experiment is carried out at 100°C? (Note: show the outline, the experiment might not work perfectly in the actual lab, but a hypothetical outline is needed). Procedure below: Boil 20mL DI water. Place 1st tea bag in beaker taken off heat and cool to handling temperature. Squeeze tea from bag without breaking it. Boil the mixture. Repeat steps with 2nd teabag. Cool to room...

Introduction: The technique used to separate an organic compound from a mixture of compounds is called Extraction. Extraction process selectively dissolves one or more of the mixture compounds into a suitable solvent. The solution of these dissolved compounds is referred to as the Extract. Here the organic solvent dichloromethane is used to extract caffeine from an aqueous extract of tea leaves because caffeine is more soluble in dichloromethane (140 mg/ml) than it is in water (22 mg/ml). However, there are...
