    In order to compare the two reactors used in our experiment, a simplified global kinetic model was used to describe the DRM reaction behavior in different plasma reactor. This model was already used by authors in the field of pollutant removal by using a plasma reactor [15, 21–23]. It is generally accepted that free radical processes are the main mechanisms in non-equilibrium plasma reaction [21, 24-25].…

    Obtain and wear goggles. 2. Measure and record the mass of a clean, dry crucible without cover. Obtain about 1 g of the unknown copper chloride hydrate and place it in the crucible. Use a spatula to break up any large pieces of the substance by pressing the pieces against the wall of the crucible. Measure and record the mass of the crucible with compound. 3. Set up a ring stand, ring, and clay triangle for heating the sample. Rest the crucible on the clay triangle. Set up a lab burner and ignite the burner away from the crucible. Adjust the burner to get a small flame. 4. Hold the burner in your hand and move the flame slowly back and forth underneath the crucible to gently heat the sample. Do not overheat the compound. Note the color change, from blue-green to brownish, as the water of hydration is driven out of the crystals. When the sample has turned brown, gently heat the crucible for two more minutes. 5. Remove and turn off the burner. Cover the crucible and allow the sample to cool for about ten minutes. 6. Remove the crucible cover and inspect your sample. If you see any blue-green crystals, reheat the sample until the crystals have turned brown. 7. Measure and record the mass of the cool crucible of your copper chloride sample. 8. Transfer the brown solid to a clean and empty 50 mL beaker. Rinse out the crucible with two 8 mL aliquots of distilled water and pour the water into the 50 mL beaker. Gently swirl the beaker to completely dissolve the solid. Note that the color of the solution is green as the copper ions are rehydrated. 9. Measure out about 20 cm of aluminum wire, coil the wire, and place the wire in the beaker of solution so that it is completely immersed in the copper chloride solution. Note that the reaction produces a gas, elemental copper is forming on the surface of the aluminum wire, and the color of the solution is fading. The reaction will take about 30 minutes to complete. 10. When the reaction is done, the solution will be colorless.…

    Objectives: 1. To examine a variety of reactions including precipitation, acid-base, gas forming, and oxidation-reduction reactions. 2. To identify the products formed in these reactions and summarize the chemical changes in terms of balanced chemical equations and net ionic equations. 3. To identify the species being oxidized and reduced in oxidation-reduction reactions and determine which species is the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent. Chemical equations represent what occurs in a chemical reaction. For example, the equation HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) → NaCl (aq) + H2O (l) describes an acid-base reaction, a type of exchange reaction in which the driving force is the formation of water. In an exchange reaction, the…

    This aim of this experiment was to determine whether or not a chemical reaction occurred after the mixing of various chemicals. The evolution of a gas, the formation of precipitation, and the change of temperature or color are all indicative of a chemical reaction. It was assumed that a reaction did not take place if the mixture of chemicals exhibited none of these characteristics. Several precipitation, complex-ion formation, redox, and acid-base reactions were performed.…

    Staring at the cover of The Other Wes Moore during my Advising and Registration Day in the spring, I honestly was not prepared to already have a summer assignment, especially since I should have been enjoying the summer before the real world started. My initial reactions to the book were like any other teenager. I judged this book by its cover and came to the realization that the only way I would open this book was by my own destiny. I had to make the decision to do the assignment and I knew I was fully responsible for this action.…

    The purpose of this project is to identify an unknown organic acid (X) by conducting various experiments to determine the acid’s unique properties. By determining selected constant properties of the unknown and then comparing these properties to the constant properties of known substances, it is possible to identify an unknown substance. The properties used to identify the unknown must be intensive, or independent of amount. Both chemical properties and physical properties are intensive properties used in determining the identity of an unknown (Maserton, p. 15).…
