Lavandulol is a compound found in lavender flowers. The structure of lavandulol is shown. C C H CH3 CH3 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH3 C O H C H On the diagram, draw a circle around the alcohol functional group. How many carbon atoms are there in one molecule of lavandulol? What feature of the lavandulol structure shows that it is unsaturated? Describe a test to show that lavandulol is unsaturated. test result Lavandulol can be extracted from lavender flowers. The following statements are about the procedure for extracting lavandulol. A Stir the mixture and leave it for a few hours. B Filter off the solid from the solution. C Distil the solution. D Add solvent to the ground up lavender flowers. E Grind up the lavender flowers. Put the statements A, B, C, D and E in the correct order. The first one has been done for you. E Chromatography can be used to separate the coloured pigments extracted from lavender flowers. The apparatus used is shown. solvent chromatography jar cover chromatography paper baseline After a few minutes the solvent vapour fills the whole chromatography jar. Use the kinetic particle model to explain this. Three different dye mixtures, P, Q and R, were placed on a sheet of chromatography paper. Two pure dyes, X and Y, were also placed on the same piece of chromatography paper. The experiment was carried out and the results are shown. P Q R X Y Where were the dyes placed on the chromatography paper at the start of the experiment? Which dye mixture contained the greatest number of dyes? Which dye mixture contained both dye X and dye Y?
