  1. ISOLATION OF FAT FROM A HOT DOG

  2. Isolating Fat From a Hot Dog • In isolating fat from a hot dog I did three different experiments, the last being very similar to the first.

  3. Results of the three experiments

  4. Procedure for experiment one • Weigh the hot dog. • Cut the hot dog into small pieces. • Soak the hot dog in CH2CL2 for five minutes. • Decant the CH2CL2 into a flask. • Repeat the third and fourth step.

  5. Procedure for experiment one continued • Dry over mgso4 • Filter into a distilling flask.

  6. Distillation • Distill off the CH2CL2, leaving the fat in the distillation pot. • This process takes about ten minutes.

  7. Weight of Fat • Be sure you have weighed the distilling flask before you collect the fat. • After distillation, weigh the flask containing the fat. Subtract the weight of the flask to obtain the weight fat collected.

  8. Soxtet • The second experiment was done with the Soxtet. • Because the thimble was only big enough to house half of a hot dog, the figures from this experiment will have to be doubled in able to compare them to the other experiments.

  9. Distillation • The distillation process is the same in all three experiments. • After each experiment, weigh the fat collected.

  10. Experiment Three • The third experiment is very similar to the first. • The biggest difference between the first and the third experiment was the size of the hot dog pieces. • On the third experiment, the pieces were so small, they were almost crushed. • The pieces of hot dog were stirred, whereas before they just soaked for five minutes.
