Chemistry Lab on Wednesday!
- Extraction of Caffeine -
Partners: Charles & Rishi

Making tea.

Boiling the solution.

Extraction of caffeine with the seperatory funnel.
Dark brown = tea
Light brown = mixture of tea and caffeine
Transparent = caffeine

Second extraction.

The most funniest part was,
while we were doing the suction filtration,
we need to create a vacuum air in the volumetric flask for the filtration.
and this guy named Charles was responsible to hold the water tube down the sink so that vacuum can be created.
No idea how he did it, and he burst the water tube and water was splashing all over the place.
Surprisingly, the first thing that came out of his mind is, RUN! leaving the water splashing!
We went 3 stations and he burst 2 of the water tube. =.=
Anyways, we were the first group that finished off the lab first although we experienced many incidents throughout the lab.

The results of running away!!

Charles's part time job! =3
