Coursework Equipment List • Boiling tubes (8) I will use these because this is where I will mix both the sodium carbonate and the strontium nitrate in order to form the precipitate. I need 8 because I am going to add 8 different amounts of strontium nitrate (1-8cm³) to the 8cm³of sodium carbonate. • Measuring cylinder (1) I will use this to measure the 8cm³ of sodium carbonate and the varying amounts of strontium nitrate to put into the test tubes. • Sodium Carbonate (enough to fill 8 boiling tubes with 8cm³/64cm³)

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.
The compounds tested in included the unknown, Calcium Nitrate, Calcium Chloride, Calcium Carbonate, Sodium Chloride, Potassium Chloride, Magnesium Chloride, and Ammonium Chloride. The next test was the pH test. In this test, the aqueous solutions from the flame tests were used again. A piece of pH paper was dipped into the aqueous solutions, a different piece for each solution. The ensuing coloration of the paper was compared to the pH scale and the
Alka-Seltzer is a medical drug that works as a pain reliever and an antacid. The pain reliever used is aspirin and the antacid used is baking soda. When sodium bicarbonate dissolves in water it splits apart into sodium and bicarbonate ions. The bicarbonates reacts with hydrogen ions from citric acid to form carbon dioxide gas and water. This is how the bubbles are made.
There was a strong odor similar to the smell of vinegar given off. After the solution was heated and the solid dissolved, 0.2 mL of hydrobromic acid was added to the test tube. The solution turned a bright yellow color after the hydrobromic acid was added. The solution was heated in a hot water bath for 5-10 minutes and then let cool. After heating, the
Problem: How does the temperature of water used to dissolve an Alka-Seltzer tablet affect the amount of time it would take for the tablet to completely dissolve? An Alka-Seltzer tablet is a medicine tablet made with baking soda used as a pain reliever for “headaches, body aches, pain, heartburn, acid indigestion, and sour stomach” (Alka-Seltzer Tablets). It is put into water, left to dissolve and then consumed. When an Alka-Seltzer tablet is dropped into h20, a chemical reaction immediately takes place and produces bubbles made out of carbon dioxide as a product of the collision (Olson 2). When in its original powder (dry) form, the Alka-Seltzer’s two main ingredients: citric acid and sodium bicarbonate are just there and not reacting to each
Introduction Alka-Seltzer has been on the market since 1931 and has helped to relieve indigestion and upset stomach. The tablets began to fizz and bubble when dropped into water. “The fizziness happens when baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and citric acid react chemically in water. They yield sodium citrate, water and carbon dioxide gas, which causes bubbles.” Based on this information, we will measure the reaction time of AlKa- Seltzer dissolved in 200 ml of water at 3 different tempertures in the first portion of this experiment.
If I had a household product labeled sodium bicarbonate, I would add an acidic substance and expect bubble to be created. As we know acid reacts with bubbles when combined with sodium bicarbonate. 2.

To test for the presence of the carbonate (CO32-) anion, a small scoop of the unknown compound was mixed with
While CO2 is produced, the amount of CO2 produced is different depending on the organisms, in this case crayfish. To test the changes in pH, NaOH is used to neutralize the carbonic acid produced by the crayfish, by which the
Standard Sodium hydroxide solution is the alkaline solution that will be used to titrate with soda water as it is a common solution that can be easily found in an ordinary school laboratory. It is a strong base. Carbonic acid is a weak acid which will react with a strong base to form a basic (pH > 7) solution. When Phenolphthalein is added to Soda water, the resultant solution is colourless. After titration with a strong base (sodium hydroxide), the solution will turn to pink as the solution becomes
After reflux, we removed the reaction mixture from the apparatus and cooled it for several minutes. We transferred the mixture to the beaker that contained water (30 mL). We cooled the mixture to room temperature and added sodium carbonate to neutralize the mixture. We added sodium carbonate until the pH of the mixture was 8. After neutralize, we collected benzocaine by vacuum filtration.
Then, tests are performed to determine if the products of aerobic and anaerobic respiration are present in the flasks. The citric acid cycle consists of a series of chemical reactions used by all aerobic organisms to release stored energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into carbon dioxide and chemical energy in the form of ATP (Biology). The tests detect the presence of carbon dioxide and ethanol. Carbon dioxide should be present irrespective of the type of respiration taking place, but ethanol is present only if fermentation has occurred. Another factor that can indicate whether fermentation occurred or cellular respiration occurred is the amount of glucose utilized during incubation.
The CO2 gas produced can be used as an indicator for the rate of reaction as the amount of CO2 gas that is collected with in a fixed time is proportional to the rate of reaction. Therefore, the average rate of reaction can be calculated by measuring the amount of CO2 collected for a set period of time. The rate expression of the reaction is written as: rate = k[CaCO3]a[HCl]b 1 http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/meds/a601032.html 2 http://www.thechemicalblog.co.uk/10-uses-of-hydrochloric-acid/ Page 2 of 7 k represents the rate constant, a and b signify the order of reaction with respect to the reactants. The order of the reaction is the power to which the concentration of that reactant is raised to, for example, doubling the concentration of a reactant that is first order would double the rate of reaction while doubling the concentration of a reactant that is in the second order would quadruple the rate of reaction.
Introduction Strong acids and strong acids both dissociate completely in water forming ions. However, strong acids donate a proton to form H3O+ along with a conjugate base and strong bases accept a proton to form OH- along with a conjugate acid. The chemical behavior of acids and bases are opposite. When they are together, their ions cancel out and form a neutral solution. In this experiment, HCl and NaOH will react to form NaOH and H2O with these two steps: The overall reaction is: Both Na+ and Cl- ions combine to form NaCl.
