liquid-liquid extraction
« on: October 15, 2013, 09:07:38 PM »
I'm wondering if anyone can give me an outline of how to separate a mixture of 1,3,5-trimethoxybenze, tartaric acid and cocaine using liquid-liquid extraction?

Poor choice of substances, we don't discuss drug preparation / purification here.

I can see this is an academic exercise but it might get moderated.

What are your thoughts on how to separate them?

Yup, it was for school but I figured out how to do it from similar types of examples.
