Lesson 1 Using Quick fit.notebook November 19, 2021
Practical skills
By the end of the lesson students will be able to...
‐ Use Quickfit apparatus for distillation and heating under reflux
‐ Use a separating funnel to remove an organic layer from an aqueous layer
‐ Understand how to dry with an anhydrous salt (e.g. MgSO4, CaCl2)
‐ Understand why products are redistilled

‐ Use Quickfit apparatus for distillation and heating under reflux
Use the diagram to set
up the equipment for
distilation
Explain how it works

‐ Use Quickfit apparatus for distillation and heating under reflux
Use the diagram to set
up the equipment for
reflux
What do you think it is
used for?

Lesson 1 Using Quick fit.notebook November 19, 2021
‐ Use Quickfit apparatus for distillation and heating under reflux
The mixture is heated
The pure substance leaves the condenser
The water cools the vapour
The liquid boils and becomes a gas
The gas enters the condenser
The gas condenses to a liquid
The vapour travels up the column
Put the statements into an order to explain how
distillation works

Lesson 1 Using Quick fit.notebook November 19, 2021
‐ Use Quickfit apparatus for distillation and heating under reflux
We can use distilation to separate liquid mixtures using their
boiling points.
e.g ethanol from water, hexane from decane and cyclohexane
from water.
Use the diagram to set
up the equipment for
distilation
Where do students go
wrong?

Lesson 1 Using Quick fit.notebook November 19, 2021
‐ Use Quickfit apparatus for distillation and heating under reflux
ethanol / water,
decane/hexane
cyclohexane /water
For each mixture above
decide which would boil
first. Explain why.

Lesson 1 Using Quick fit.notebook November 19, 2021
‐ Use Quickfit apparatus for distillation and heating under reflux
Before the pearshaped flask is heated,
essential changes must be made to the
apparatus.
Identify two changes that must be made.
1. Water must go in bottom.
2. Must seal top

Lesson 1 Using Quick fit.notebook November 19, 2021
‐ Use a separating funnel to remove an organic layer from an aqueous layer
1. Make sure that the stopcock is closed.
2. Fill funnel with mixture to be separated
3. Invert it slowly and vent (open the stopcock)
4. Close the stopcock and shake the funnel
gently, watching out for emulsions. Vent it again.
Repeat this step until no more gas escapes.
5. Allow the layers to separate.
6. Remove the stopper
7. Drain the bottom layer into a clean container.
At this point, you need to know which layer
contains your desired product

Lesson 1 Using Quick fit.notebook November 19, 2021
‐ Use a separating funnel to remove an organic layer from an aqueous layer
‐ Use Quickfit apparatus for distillation and heating under reflux
Which method would you use to...
1. Separate a miscible mixture?
2. Separate a immiscible mixture?
3. Complete a reaction and remove the
product which has a low boiling point
immediately?
4. Do a reaction which you need to
ensure has time to react fully?

‐ Understand why products are redistilled
Redistillation
used to purify products of organic synthesis
just distil again!
