What are the common solvents to use for purification and extraction? What are the most common temperatures for both extraction and purification of a substance? Has anyone ever tried doing this to common tables such as vitamins or medication? I am a bored hobbyist wishing to learn self taught chemistry in a lab setting. I am hopping to carry out some experiments I have seen online in forums and you tube, first by initially learning to extract and purify chemical substances.
