Chromatography II: HPLC • Procedure • Use a 10 mL volumetric pipet to add 10.00 mL of soft drink to 10.00 mL of deionized water. • Mix thoroughly and half fill a HPLC vial with your sample. Label the vial with your name and the name of the soft drink.
Chromatography II: HPLC • Analysis of Results • Use the four caffeine standards to prepare a calibration curve (graph) that plots peak area vs. concentration. • Draw a “best fit” straight line on your graph. • Use your calibration curve to determine the concentration of caffeine in the sample you prepared. • Use the concentration of caffeine in your sample, along with the dilution equation, to determine the concentration of caffeine in the soft drink you used.

Calculations Remember, the original soft drink was diluted to prepare your HPLC sample. The concentration (M) of caffeine in the original soft drink can be calculated by using the dilution equation: M1V1 = M2V2 M1V1 M2 = V2 The concentration (mg caffeine / 500 mL soda) of caffeine in a full can of your soft drink can be determine using the following equation: M2 x 194.2 g caffeine x 1000 mg x 0.500 L = mg caffeine in bottle g mol caffeine Chromatography II: HPLC
