Zinc Reaction Lab Report

550 Words3 Pages

Zinc reacts with copper (II) sulphate to produce zinc sulphate and copper. As zinc is placed higher than copper in the electrochemical series, zinc is more electropositive than copper. Thus, the black zinc metal dissolved indicates that zinc ionizes to form zinc ions and displaces the copper (II) ions from 1 M CuSO_4 solution. The reddish-brown precipitate formed indicates copper is deposited after displaced by zinc. At first, the blue colour of 1 M CuSO_4 solution indicates the presence of copper (II) ions. The blue intensity of 1 M CuSO_4 solution decreases as the number of copper (II) ions in the solution decreases. This is due to copper is displaced by zinc from its solution. The colourless solution formed is zinc sulphate solution. …show more content…

Reactions of ionic compounds Reaction between CaCl_2 and Na_3 PO_4 Calcium chloride reacts with sodium phosphate to produce calcium phosphate and sodium chloride. The white precipitate formed is calcium phosphate. As calcium ions combine with phosphate ions, the solubility of calcium phosphate decreases. Hence, calcium phosphate is an insoluble salt. In this reaction, the cations in calcium chloride and sodium phosphate displace each other. Calcium ions and sodium ions displace each other to form new compounds which is calcium phosphate and sodium chloride. Since this reaction involves the cations of the two ionic reactants which is calcium chloride and sodium phosphate, hence it is a double replacement

Phosphate and nitrates are examples of polyatomic ions. Polyatomic ions, also known as molecular ions, are charged chemical species composed of two or more atoms covalently bonded or of a metal complex that can be considered to be acting to a single unit. Phosphates and nitrates are found in fertilizers and some detergents. When rain dissolves these materials make their way into the creeks and rivers. When the surface waters are rich with these materials, they can cause algae to grow, which completes with other organisms for light and other nutrients.

In this experiment, the objective was to set up a voltaic cell and use it to carry out two electrolysis processes to determine the equivalent weights of zinc and copper. The procedure involved using zinc strips, copper strips, zinc wire, copper wire, a zinc plating solution, a CuSO4 solution, an ammeter, wooden blocks, alligator clamps, and beakers. However, the main findings of the experiment showed that the equivalent weights for both copper and zinc were not as expected. Copper had over 300

CaCl2 and 5 mL water, 2 tsp. CaCl2 and 2 tsp. CaCl2.The question asked at the beginning of the lab was what chemical must be present for a color change to occur. My hypothesis was that if Phenol red was present then a color change would occur. This hypothesis was true because every reaction that had phenol red experienced a dramatic color change while the other reactions did not.

All Group two compounds were all white and crystal looking this was due to the reason that all these were salts and mainly all slats are white crystal looking. The pH levels of the compounds diverse from approx. 7 to some of the alkaline solution producing a pH of 10. The difference in the pH levels is due to the alkalinity or acidity of the corresponding bases. Sulphates, Chlorides all had relatively low pH’s suggesting that all these bases are weak bases.

This lab’s end result was to correctly identify each unknown solution using prior knowledge of chemical properties and the results of the first experiment conducted. Unknown solution D was the only colored solution, being blue while the others were clear. This made it easy to then match D up to Copper Sulfate because of its color. As unknown A and B were added together, lots of gaseous bubbles formed and revealed the fact that that reaction was the reaction between Hydrochloric Acid and Sodium Carbonate because it was the only reaction that produced a gas release. Unknown A and C produced the only yellow, brown precipitate just as the reaction between Sodium Carbonate and Silver Nitrate had previously.

However, the results were not precise and accurate enough due to some experimental errors and human errors. First, the identicalness of test tubes. The interior of the test tubes were not the same and thus even though the measurement of the hydrogen peroxide and copper (II) sulphate were made precisely and accurately, the volume may differ. This contributed to countless of minor errors thorough the experiment, affecting the precision and accuracy of the result. The volume added should be weighed on the electronic balance every time after substance being added to obtain the most accurate results.

For example, when NaNO3, a salt formed by the reaction of NaOH with HNO3, dissolved in water, the salt is decomposed into: NaNO3 (s) H2O Na + (aq) + NO 3 (aq) Hydrated Na + ions do not give or not also accept H + ions. NO3 ion is the conjugate base of a strong acid HNO3 and has no affinity for the H + ion. As a result, a solution containing ions of Na + and NO3 be neutral, with a pH of 7. In addition, salt can also be made to make bleach.

Figure Out The Total Mass Of Sodium Phosphate

293 Words | 2 Pages

A person should prepare a quantitative solution by collecting all the needed materials to solve for a certain solution of a compound. To figure out the aqueous solution of sodium phosphate which is Na3PO4 12H2O, you need to figure out the total mass of sodium phosphate dodecahydrate in 1 mole of 1000 mL. In the compound sodium phosphate, there are 3 sodium atoms, 1 phosphorus atom, and 4 oxygen atoms. Since each atom has a certain atomic weight, you multiply the atomic weight by the total number of atoms for that specific atoms. So sodium would be a total of 68.97 grams, phosphorus would be 30.97 grams, and oxygen would be 64.00 grams. Since the compound sodium phosphate needs to be in water, there is also dodecahydrate to add to the mass of
