Chapter 18.4, Problem 18.6P

Decaffeinated coffee is produced by extracting the caffeine from coffee with a solvent. Initially dichloromethane ( CH 2 Cl 2 ) was used, but concerns arose over the ill health effects of trace amounts of CH 2 Cl 2 remaining in the coffee. Why is caffeine soluble in CH 2 Cl 2 ?

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Ethanol is miscible with water. Assuming that caffeine is soluble in ethanol, could you use ethanol as a solvent to extract caffeine from coffee, rather than using dichloromethane as the extraction solvent?  Explain.
A 1 mL sample of glycogen was calculated to contain 21 µmol (micromole) glucose. To 1 mL of this sample was added 2 mL of 2 M HCl. It was then hydrolysed by boiling the solution for 15 minutes. After boiling the hydrolysate was cooled and made up with H2O to a final volume of exactly 10 mL. The glucose was measured in this solution and found to have a concentration of 340 µg/mL (microgram/milliliter). i) Calculate the mass (mg) of glucose in the 10 mL of hydrolysate. As the 1 mL of glycogen sample was made up to a final volume of 10 mL, this mass of glucose was produced by the hydrolysis of the original 1 mL glycogen sample. ii) Calculate the amount (µmol) of glucose produced by the hydrolysis of the glycogen sample. iii) Calculate the purity of the glycogen used in the sample as % Purity = (moles of measured glucose/ moles of calculated glucose in glycogen) *100 iv) state your answer in a complete sentence. Show your working out such that the marker can easily understand it.…
A 1 mL sample of glycogen was calculated to contain 35 µmol (micromole) glucose. To 1 mL of this sample was added 2 mL of 2 M HCL. It was then hydrolysed by boiling the solution for 15 minutes. After boiling the hydrolysate was cooled and made up with H2O to a final volume of exactly 10 mL. The glucose was measured in this solution and found to have a concentration of 570 µg/mL (microgram/milliliter). i) Calculate the mass (mg) of glucose in the 10 mL of hydrolysate. As the 1mL of glycogen sample was made up to a final volume of 10 mL, this mass of glucose was produced by the hydrolysis of the original 1 mL glycogen sample. ii) Calculate the amount (µmol) of glucose produced by the hydrolysis of the glycogen sample. iii) Calculate the purity of the glycogen used in the sample as % Purity = (moles of measured glucose/ moles of calculated glucose in glycogen) *100 iv) state your answer in a complete sentence.
