Chemical compounds that are available to determine are CaCO3, CaCl2, Ca(NO3)2, mgCl2, MgSO4, KCl, HCl, HC2H3O2, KNO3, K2SO4, NaC2H3O2, Na2CO3, NaCl, Na2SO4, HNO3, H2SO4, HNO3, H2SO4, NH4Cl, (NH4)2SO4, K2CO3, 0.1 M AgNO3, 0.2 M BaCl, Mg(s), NaOH, and KOH. To start this experiment, start with the flame test by gathering a Bunsen burner and a Nichrome wire. Connect the Bunsen burner with a rubber tube to a laboratory gas. To prepare solutions for the flame test, weigh out 0.205 gram of Unknown Compound using an analytical balance and mixed it into a 140 mL beaker filled with 20 mL ionized water. Ensure that solid is completely dissolved using a stirring rod.
Some compounds have very distinctive colors when burned, such as Potassium, which is a white/purple, and sodium, which is a deep red hue. The first step for a flame test is to gather the needed materials. These include beakers, distilled water, the unknown substance, a Bunsen burner, matches, a nichrome wire, tubing to connect the gas line to the Bunsen burner, goggles, and known compounds to compare with. The first step is to make aqueous solutions of all the substances to be tested. This is done by adding .5
When the copper is heated, the flame of the bunsen burner changed from blue to green. The colour of the copper metal changed from a shiny reddish-brown colour to a dull gray-brown colour. When the magnesium is heated, it changed from a dull gray metal to a pale white colour. b) 2Mg (s)+ O2 (g) ----> 2MgO (s) Magnesium + Oxygen ----> Magnesium Oxide 2Cu (s) + O2 (g)----> 2CuO (s) Copper + Oxygen ----> Copper Oxide c)Copper
The lab started off by measuring critical materials for the lab: the mass of an an empty 100 mL beaker, mass of beaker and copper chloride together(52.30 g), and the mass of three iron nails(2.73 g). The goal of this experiment is to determine the number of moles of copper and iron that would be produced in the reaction of iron and copper(II) chloride, the ratio of moles of iron to moles of copper, and the percent yield of copper produced. 2.00 grams of copper(II) chloride was added in the beaker to mix with 15 mL of distilled water. Then, three dry nails are placed in the copper(II) chloride solution for approximately 25 minutes. The three nails have to be scraped clean by sandpaper to make the surface of the nail shiny; if the nails are not clean, then some unknown substances might accidentally mix into the reaction and cause variations of the result.
Tyler White CHEM151LL 32658 04/01/2018 Different Types Chemical Reaction Types and Equations Purpose: The purpose of this lab experiment is to examine different types of chemical reactions such as Decomposition reaction, Synthesis reactions, Combustion reactions, and different Chemical equations. The experiments were conducted online using Late Nite Labs. Materials: Because the experiments were conducted online there wasn’t any physical use of materials, only digital ones, for these labs to be performed. Only the registration for the website was needed to perform these online labs, as well as a desktop computer.
Analysis: The ion that causes the color change in flames is because of the cation in a chemical formula. The reason why the cation is the cause of the color change is because when I observed the flame color created by the different salts, there some a couple of similarities and differences that I found in each chemical formula. Two formulas that I were drawn to first were potassium chloride and sodium chloride. They both have the same anions however they have different cations and this is the first clue that I found to try to find out which ion causes the flame color change. The next clue that I found that the anion wasn’t the ion causing the color change was also the chemical formulas.
In this experiment, the elements copper, cobalt, barium, sodium, lithium, and strontium were burned to see the colors which they produce. Each flame was a distinct color and burned at different speeds, meaning that my partners and I had to repeat the step of burning the element several times in order to get precise results. The experiment was mainly conducted to see the light spectra that the colored flames cast, and to become acquainted with using spectroscopes. One of the elements used in this lab, lithium, is used to make batteries and as medicine, but also gives of a red color. In order to get good results, the lights in the lab were turned off, this way my partners and I could more clearly see the color of the flame and the lines which
Summary for the H3O+ in the Birnessite (H-Bir) The presence of H3O+ in birenssite had been reported by Johnson1. In this paper, the author discussed that the hydrogen birnessite contained structural water and either hydroxyl hydronium (H3O+), or both. Interlayered H2O molecules inside the birnessite play an important role to the structure.
When the penny was placed in the flame of the bunsen burner, the copper melted and revealed the zinc, so it changed from a copper-color to silver. The color change is an example of a physical property, while the whole reaction is a chemical change. Investigation D: The magnesium reacts with oxygen in the air, and the bunsen burner is a source of heat for the reaction. When this reaction occurs, Magnesium Oxide is formed, making it a chemical change. Investigation E: Copper(II) sulfate is soluble in water.
The magnesium burned did not leave significant odor like matches or candles do because it reacts with the oxygen, which is present within the air. This means that it's not necessarily reacting with the fire as the candles or matches do. Thus, magnesium and oxygen reacting together makes the compound, magnesium oxide as a result. The only reason why is looks likes it's burning is due to the fire is because the reaction between magnesium and oxygen, as they create the heat. This results the bright lighting like that of fire.
THE RESULT OF ADDING DIFFERENT SUBSTANCES TO ROCKET FUEL. Name: Gareth Murdoch/Devan Garland Teacher: Mr Adams Class: Grade 9A Introduction The reason we chose this project was to find out what an inexpensive way to make rocket fuel for Mini projects and to experiment to find what substance you can add to make the fuel more effective in speed and burning rate. Investigative Question How do different substances affect the burning of rocket fuel?
Properties of Ionic and Covalent Substances Lab Report Introduction The purpose of this lab was to determine which of the following substances: wax, sugar, and salt, are an ionic compound and which are a covalent compound. In order to accurately digest the experiments results, research of definitions of each relating led to the following information: ionic compounds are positive and negatively charged ions that experience attraction to each other and pull together in a cluster of ionic bonds; they are the strongest compound, are separated in high temperatures, and can be separated by polar water molecules. A covalent compound forms when two or more nonmetal atoms share valence electrons; covalent compounds are also
Properties of Ionic and Covalent Substances Lab Report Introduction The purpose of this lab was to determine which of the following substances: wax, sugar, and salt, are an ionic compound and which are a covalent compound. In order to accurately digest the experiments results, definitions of each relating factor were researched, leading to the following information: ionic compounds are positive and negatively charged ions that experience attraction to each other and pull together in a cluster of ionic bonds; they are the strongest compound, are separated in high temperatures, and can be separated by polar water molecules. A covalent compound is formed when two or more nonmetal atoms share valence electrons; covalent compounds are also categorized into two sections: polar covalent and nonpolar covalent. Furthermore, polar covalent compounds dissolve in water, while nonpolar covalent compounds do not.
Introduction: This lab report discusses an experiment to study the difference in the burn rate of various colored candles. The objective of this experiment is to analyse the outcome of burning 5 different colored candles including white under the same control variable for 60 minutes. The white candles used in this experiment are pure and no chemicals or dyes are added to it. They are normally made from paraffin wax with a wick in the middle.
Explain the sequence of thermal stages involved in combustion from preheating and to flaming and glowing. Identify which of these steps are endothermic and which are exothermic. Burning begins with endothermic reactions that absorb energy and ends with exothermic reactions that release energy. The endothermic reactions are known as preignition, the exothermic reactions as combustion, and the point of transition as ignition.
