To obtain data, this research employed an experiment. The experiment involved steam distillation method. We used 500g of pandan leaves in a 500mL round bottomed flask as the distilling pot. The round bottom flask was placed in a heating mantle with temperature at 2 °C. Enough water was added so that the distilling pot is about 2/3 full. Besides that, a small hot plate was used as the heat source. A Claisen connecting tube was used to connect the distilling pot to the distillation head. The Claisen was wrapped with the parafilm to keep it hot during the distillation. The heat was adjusted so the distilling rate equals about 20 drops per minute.
