Report
Report for Chem 101 Laboratory Exercise #6 Extraction of caffeine from Tea _ 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: _Anna Hale_ Lab Section: _B05_ Quad: _2_ Date: _22/11/23_ Abstract (max. 3 lines) _Through liquid liquid extraction, it was demonstrated that a single tea bag of Tetley Orange Pekoe tea contained 0.898% caffeine. The lethal dose of caffeine to a 700g rat would be 4.8 cups of tea. 1 Data/Results Table 1. Experimental data and calculated values Extraction and isolation Weight of tea leaves -- 3.118g Weight of caffeine 0.028g Weight % caffeine in tea 0.898% Lethal dose for a 700 g rat 4.8 cups 1 Algebraic Equation Weight % of caffeine in tea = _(weight of caffeine)/(weight of tea leaves) x 100 The lethal dose for a 700g rat = (lethal dose for a rat x mass of rat)/(mass of sublimed crystals)_ 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). _Liquid liquid extraction was not the most accurate way that the amount of caffeine could be measured. Sublimination would yield more accurate results as the impurities present in liquid liquid extraction would have a sublimination temperature. _ Conclusions (max 1 line) _The weight % of caffeine in tea was determined to be 0.898%. It would take 4.8 cups of tea with this caffeine amount to kill a 700g rat. _ References

Pre-lab quiz: Are all responses correct? 4 Laboratory Notebook: Have ALL data, observations and procedures been recorded? 1 Report: Are all sections completed accurately? Is the abstract accurate and complete? Are responses in the Discussion correct? Does the conclusion only include the appropriate information? Are the References correctly formatted and cited? 3 Participation: Did the student come prepared, was time used well in lab and was student engaged in the experiment? Did the student show the email confirmation letter and request the TA to check their drawers for completeness before they left the lab? 1 Performance evaluation: Did student follow the safe practice guidelines throughout the whole lab period? 1 Total mark 10 © 2023, Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science
