Thus, the reason of the better extraction with 1,2-dichloroethane is because of the high solubility of caffeine in this solvent. The higher solubility of the compound in the solvent, the higher extraction of the compound from the original mixture. Why is 1/2 dichloroethane a better solvent for caffeine? What is a good recovery percentage?īeside above, is a high percent recovery good? According to Vogel’s Textbook of Practical Organic Chemistry, yields close to 100% are called quantitative, yields above 90% are called excellent, yields above 80% are very good, yields above 70% are good, yields above 50% are fair, and yields below 40% are called poor. Then your percent recovery is 70% (7/10 x 100). Let’s say you had 10.0g of impure material and after recrystallization you collected 7.0 g of dry pure material. Percent recovery = amount of substance you actually collected / amount of substance you were supposed to collect, as a percent. What is the formula for percent recovery? P501 Dispose of contents/ container to an approved waste disposal plant. P301 + P312 IF SWALLOWED: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/ physician if you feel unwell. Conversely, tea stems contain very little caffeine.
Similarly, tippy black teas and green teas will be higher in caffeine than their leafy counterparts. In terms of the pure leaf, many white teas from outside of Fujian, China are higher in caffeine than black teas simply because they are made with more tips or buds.
The brown color of tea solution is due to flavonoid pigments and chlorophylls and their respective oxidation products.ĭoes different kinds or types of tea produces different amount of caffeine content Why? What impurities from the tea leaves may cause the isolated caffeine to have a brown or green color instead of white?ģ)The crude caffeine isolated from tea has a green tinge.
