Scents
For this experiment we are extracting essential oil from juniper, to add to our soap.,
The scientific Method
Question: Will we extract lots of juniper oil?
Materials: Vile, Juniper, Dry ice, Pressure tank, Blow dryer, Scissors, and Funnell
Experiment steps:
1. Gather all the materials
2. Cut juniper into tiny pieces and place in container
3. input the juniper into the pressure tank
4. Add dry ice until full
5. Ciel the pressure tank
6. Soon the tank will frost from the outside, so go to the sink and heat it up with hot water
7. Once the the tank has reached a PSI of 1,200 take it to the table for the next step
8. Setup the apparatus and place the Pressure tank upside down
9. Under the tank place a vial where the juniper oil will fall into
10. Then release the pressure slowly and you will see dry ice falling into the vial
11. Blow dry the vial to separate it from the essential oil
Experience:
In the beginning of the experiment I thought we were going to receive about 2-3 drops of oil, but we actually extracted about 5-6 drops. The stronger the scent the more oil it will extract. This experiment was very easy because we have done this exact experiment before. We hit some bumps when doing this extracting like lack of materials and other experiment to deal with. When I open the container the smell of juniper immediately hit me. Last time we did this experiment we were watch more than doing. This time Griffin and I were able to release the pressure and blow dry the veil, which was more engaging than watching. When doing this myself I understand now what andrew meant when he said “We're losing it”. I thought he meant we were losing the pressure instead of the oil. After the experiment the veil contained juniper which was yellow.
Science:
The science of this experiments starts when we seal shut the pressure tank. When we seal shut the pressure tank I realized it's no different from when andrew told us not to cover the top of the beaker. The reason why the tank doesn’t exploded is because it’s created to hold all the pressure that is building up. Once there is enough pressure for the dry ice to turn into liquid CO2 it will dissolve the juniper and extract all the oil.
