stream at a rate necessary to keep material in cone(s) completely covered with
condensed solvent? .. ____
j. Reflux continued until solvent becomes a light straw colour? ____
k. Hot plate turned off allowing apparatus to cool down with water still running in
condenser? . ____
l. Boiling stopped and cylindered has cooled - condenser turned off and removed
from cylinder? ____
