unknowns were present. Second, we were to extract caffeine from tea. These two
assignment will be documented in two separate entities.

4) Separation of a Neutral and Basic Substance
A mixture of equal parts of a neutral substance containing either
naphthalene or benzoin and a basic substance containing either 4-chloroaniline
or ethyl 4-aminobenzoate were to be separated by extraction from an ether
solution. Once the separation took place, and crystallization was carried out,
it became possible to determine what components were in the unknown mixture, by
means of a melting point determination.
