anti-bumping granules, is heated under reflux for 10 minutes.
2. The apparatus is rearranged for distillation.
3. The mixture is heated to collect the liquid that distils between 70 and 85 °C
4. The distillate is placed in a separating funnel. Aqueous sodium carbonate is
added, and a stopper is placed in the funnel. The mixture is shaken, releasing
pressure as necessary.
