Analysis Questions:
1. In step #1, when water was mixed with CuSO4, the water turned a blue colour. Can you definitely confirm it is a physical or chemical property? Support your answer.

I am unable to confirm that the action stated in this question is a physical or a chemical property. However, I can confirm that I witnessed demonstrations of both properties. For the physical property, the demonstration which I observed was the copper sulphate being dissolved in the water thus creating a blue colour, this reminds me of the quantitative physical property, solubility. The definition of this property is the ability of a substance, (solute) to dissolve in a solvent (water). For the chemical property, the characteristic which I observed was a new substance being formed. This occurred when the water and copper sulphate were being mixed together. I can justify that a new substance was formed because the state of matter of the copper sulphate changed from a solid to a liquid, meanwhile the water simpler changed hues, (from transparent to colour of sulphate). …show more content…

For steps #2, 3 and 4, identify the type of chemical property that was observed.

For steps #2, 3 and 4, the chemical property which was observed through the experiment is reactivity with a mixture. It was a mixture being featured because while copper sulphate is a pure substance, when it was added to the water, the copper sulphate became a mixture. I can justify which the property observed was reactivity with a mixture because all the steps consisted of reacting materials residing from different states of matter into the solution. The various reactions ranged from higher temperatures, to gas bubbles, to even colour

These color changes indicate a chemical change, which show that a reaction had occurred. In the first step when o-vanillin and p-toludine, imine was formed. The color change from green to orange suggests that imine appears as orange colored. In the second step, the addition of sodium borohydride reduced the imine into another derivative, which was yellowish lime color. The solution turned clear when acids and anhydrides was added, which indicated the precipitate were dissolved.

After a while, a brownish color substance started to form on the three iron nails. We predicted that the brown substance on the nails is copper because the reaction of copper(II) chloride with iron is a single displacement reaction, so copper would be produced. 0.48 grams of iron was used in the reaction because 2.73 grams subtracted by 2.25 grams is 0.48 grams. The 0.48 grams of iron had to be used in the reaction with copper(II) chloride in order to produce copper, according to the reaction equation: CuCl2+FeFeCl2+Cu. 0.52 grams of copper was produced after pouring out the copper(II) chloride solution and the three iron

In performing these sets of experiments, in which we would drop a water/water solution onto the surface of a penny, we were trying to test and experiment the bonding qualities of water when made into a solution compared to when the water is pure. When we dropped pure tap water on to a penny, the water, instead of flowing and spreading out, stayed together in a single drop on the penny. We wanted to see how different substances affected this phenomenon. When we formulated our guiding question we made sure to preserve these intents in the language: how do foreign substances influence the bonding quality and strength (to the top of a zinc penny in specific) of water? Since these experiments were conducted in groups, we set up a few roles to

After placing the aluminum in said beaker, one should gather a stir stick and stir the solution in order to speed up the reaction. One should stir the solution until there are no visible silver pieces of aluminum left in the beaker of what was the copper (II) chloride solution. When there are no visible silver pieces of aluminum left in the beaker, this means that the reaction has occurred. After the reaction has occurred, one needs to separate the products, which are copper and aluminum chloride, from each other in order to see how much copper was able to be produced. Seeing as the products are a solid in the form of copper and a liquid in the form of aluminum chloride, the process of filtration can be used to separate them.

Grace Lowe Chem 113-002 24 February 2023 Experiment 10: The Chemistry of Natural Waters Introduction The idea behind this experiment begins with a podcast that discusses how water tastes different, and the co-hosts tasted different waters to see if they could identify what company they came from¹. Instead of identifying the water based on taste, is it possible to identify water based on their hardness and mineral content? This experiment tries to answer that question. Through multiple chemical experiments, the mineral content and water hardness of each unknown sample was found to see if it is possible to identify the different waters. Water hardness is a measurement of the amount of dissolved minerals present in that water².

Throughout the experiment, copper was altered a total of 5 times, but after the final chemical reaction, solid, elemental copper returned. Each time the solution changed color, a precipitate formed, or when gas appeared, indicated that a chemical reaction was occurring. For the first reaction, copper was added to nitric acid, forming the aqueous copper (II) nitrate (where the copper went), along with liquid water, and

As the water was added to the heated sample, the solid copper chloride began to dissolve into a pretty blue-green solution, as a result of the compound breaking apart into individual Cu2+ and Cl- ions. When the water was first mixed with the copper chloride, it dissolved the solid pretty slowly, turning into a sort of mush at first. However, eventually, the water dissolved all of the solid copper chloride and the solution was homogenous. Since the compound just changed physical form, from solid to liquid, this change was purely physical. Just as in the first part of the experiment, the chemical character of the compound was not altered, so the compound did not experience a chemical change.

In this reaction NaOH was added to the Cu(NO3)2. The solution developed a precipitate which made the clear solution become cloudy and uniform in color (blue). The physical color change was demonstrated through the formation of the precipitate. The third step was the formation of CuO. In this reaction, the Cu(OH)2 product was heated on a hot plate and stirred continuously until the solution became colorless and a dark precipitate formed.

The objective of the sludge lab was to determine how many different pure substances were in the sludge by using the methods and techniques we have learned throughout the year. We had to pick separation methods so we could separate our sludge and then test characteristic properties on our separated liquids and solids. This experiment made us use our knowledge on characteristic properties to pick the ones we should test to help us identify our pure substances. Characteristic properties are properties that help identify a solid or liquid. Each solid or liquid has a certain density, boiling point, solubility, flammability, so if you know what each one is then you can use that information to help you identify your solid or liquid.

Exp. 10 - The Chemistry of Natural Waters David Graves 11/10/15 CHEM 111 Section 104 TA: Lai Shi Group Members: Jasmine Graves, Brad Hensler, Peter Hoholick Introduction Experiment 10: The Chemistry of Natural Waters investigates the topic known as water hardness. Hardness is a chemical property of water that evaluates the concentration of dissolved divalent cations such as Ca and Mg, which happen to be the two ions that are tested for in the experiment. Hardness can be measured in multiple ways such as molarity (M) or parts per million (ppm). Since all natural waters contain ion concentrations of dissolved minerals, it is important to known the hardness value because hard water can cause scale formation in industrial

Physical properties of a substance or solution are anything that can be detected without changing the chemical nature of the substance. Physical properties describe it as a unique substance which allows us to determine the individuality of an unknown substance. Physical properties: Physical properties such as density, colour, normal boiling point, freezing point and refractive index are those properties that can be determined without altering the chemical properties of the substance. This is after the property has been determined; the material can be recovered in its original state by physical methods thus being a pure substance. The determination of chemical properties generally requires a chemical process.
