Experiment Summary
1. Preparation of silicone oil
2. Removing the hydrogen chloride (HCl) byproduct
3. Removal of Ether (highly volatile)
4. Conversion of silicone oil to bouncy/silly
putty
3. Removal of ether
Decant the ether layer away from the MgSO4 by
pouring it through a conical funnel into a
100cm3 round bottomed flask (use a cotton
wool plug in the conical funnel).
Remove the ether using the rotary evaporator
(ask a demonstrator to help you with this).
