Double replacement reactions are fascinating. In this lab, 16 reactions are given to create a balanced chemical equation and predict products by using a solubility table. This experiment shows comprehension of reactions and provides reasoning and visuals into the complexities of double replacement reactions. The lab aims to enhance understanding of chemical reactions, providing some depth about these processes. A double replacement reaction is when two compounds exchange positive and negative ions to create new substances and new compounds. This reaction occurs when positive ions and negative ions of two different compounds change places, this results in the formation of two entirely new compounds. These reactions usually occur in aqueous …show more content…

Double replacement reactions are used for a lot of things, often used in labs for the creation of new compounds in chemistry, because certain ions can react and form new substances they are also used in the separation of substances. Additionally, double-replacement reactions can tell chemists about unknown substances for example the precipitate shows a color change which can show the presence of specific ions. They also allow the development of new chemicals, the study of unknown molecules, and the separating of ions based on response and reactivity. In conclusion, the double replacement reactions lab shows multiple ways to predict the products of a chemical reaction. The outcomes are as anticipated. Double replacement reactions are placed during the experiment and one can see, which proves that the reaction was taking place and that it is possible to predict the outcome. All of the double replacement reactions are correctly detected and there is either a precipitate or there isn’t, the results are accurate. When the anticipated states don't coincide with those listed on the solubility table, an error has occurred in terms of accuracy. Equations become balanced, and the error can be quickly

PURPOSE The purpose of this experiment is to conduct a single displacement reaction using a reactant with impurities to deduce its effects on the actual yield of the precipitate by calculating percentage yield. INTRODUCTION In chemical reactions, there are limiting reagents which control the maximum yield of products. On the other hand, excess reactants are other reactants in a reaction that are left over or remain after the limiting reagent has been completely consumed.

Double Replacement Lab Report Date Completed: October 8, 2015 Objective To analyze and determine if a chemical reaction occurred between two compounds using the concepts we learned in class. Also, if the chemical reaction occurred, to determine if it formed a precipitate or gas. Safety General Safety Precautions: Do not touch the chemicals Use of gloves and coats are recommended, use of goggles should be required Keep the work area clean Dispose of the chemicals properly, DO NOT dispose them in the sink Clean up your work station Wash your hand before and after the lab Make sure all chemicals are labeled correctly NEVER return chemicals to reagent bottles Use the wafting technique to smell the chemical Clean up spills immediately

ADI Lab: Stoichiometry and Chemical Reactions The guiding question of this ADI lab was, “Which balanced equation best represents the thermal decomposition of sodium bicarbonate?” The goal of this lab was to use our knowledge of stoichiometry with the mole ratio to identify the correct chemical equation for the decomposition of sodium bicarbonate. Information that was given going into this investigation was the definition of the law of conservation of mass and the atomic theory which states that no atoms can be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction. Also the mole ratio which is used to determine how much of a product will be produced in a chemical reaction using the given chemical equation.

Each reaction was composed of two compounds as the reactants and two compounds as the products. The metal in each of the reactants bonded with the opposite compound’s nonmetal and created a new product. For example, barium chloride and silver nitrate reacted and yielded barium nitrate and silver chloride. The ionic salt products could be dissolved in water. When this occurred, H20 weakened the bond between the ions and surrounds the two ions individually because of an attraction to create a solution.

This is seen through the reaction between sodium hydroxide and sulphuric acid. In this reaction, the acid and the base combined to form a colourless solution. However, it was observed that the reaction released heat indicating a chemical reaction occurred. After observing the chemical equation, the anion from the acid and the cation from the base combined to form a salt and water, a neutralization reaction. Thus, it can be concluded a neutralization reaction is an indicator of a double displacement reaction.

Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to demonstrate the different types of chemical reactions, those including Copper. There are different types of chemical reactions. A double displacement reaction is a chemical process involving the exchange of bonds between two reacting chemical species. A a decomposition reaction is the separation of a chemical compound into elements or simpler compounds and the single-displacement reaction is a type of

Two chemical reactions are carried by adding sodium hydroxide to the acidic solution from Part I. During the first reaction is the neutralization of the excess of nitric acid in the mixture by sodium hydroxide. The second reaction takes the place after naturalization is a complete and NaOH is in excess. While the liquid inside the beaker is being stirred, with the stirring rod, 10 ml of 6 M NaOH is poured into the solution from Part I at 1 mL at a time. After each 1 mL the solution is tested for acidity with red litmus paper.

Double Displacement: If the reaction that occurs is double displacement then an increase in reactants will reesult in creating two or more compounds/reactants. Experimental Design Part A: A large well plate was placed on the lab station, each well was filled with either copper (II) nitrate, magnesium nitrate, or zinc nitrate. Added to each of the wells was three strips of copper wire, magnesium ribbon, and zinc metal (powder form). Using a toothpick, you submerged the metals in the liquid and ensured they did not touch.

Everything can change from one substance to another, but the creation and the end of some things never happen .On a beautiful day on the fourth of December in 2015, the class of SNC1D5 started a lab on different kinds of molecules. The reason why we did this lab was to investigate the chemical and physical changes between different substances. Substances can change from one substance to another that have alternate physical and chemical properties by chemical reactions or with reactants or with heat. A physical change mixes up molecules but doesn’t hurt their inner structure.

A double replacement reaction occurs when two compounds with two elements in each compound combine. After they combine, the first element in the first compound combines with the second element in the second compound; the first element in the second compound combines with the second element in the first compound. For example: AB + CD ⟶ AD + CB When we were assigned this lab, we were told that we had to produce 2.00g of barium sulfate. We chose to use barium nitrate (Ba(NO3)2) and lithium sulfate (Li2SO4). In order to be sure that these compounds would be safe to combine, we did some research on them.

Abstract: To determine the rate law in each reaction and find the reaction rate, an experiment was conducted with acetone, acid, iodine, and water. By using different concentrations of each substance, a number of 4 times, the rate was giving of each reaction and recorded the times it took to react. Based off the results from the first four reactions, further data was collect with a fifth reaction. Using 15mL of acetone, 10mL of hydrochloric acid, 5mL of iodine, and 20mL of water, we got a rate of 8.77× 10-7. The reaction rate was much higher than the rates of the previous reactions.
