Part 1:
Chemicals
Well No.
Observations of the Reaction
A.
NaHCO3 + HCl
A1 clear, bubbles
B.
HCl + BTB
B1
yellow, clear
C.
NH3 + BTB
C1 clear blue
D.
HCl + blue dye
D1
green
E.
Blue dye + NaOCl
E1
clear blue
with the 1 drop of HCl
green/blue
F.
NaOCl + KI
A2 rusty-yellow with 1 drop of starch
black
G.
KI + Pb(NO3)2
B2
yellow, not clear
H.
NaOH + phenolphthalein
A3 purple, violet
I.
HCl + phenolphthalein
A4 clear J.
NaOH + AgNO3
D3
murkey, brown
K.
AgNO3 + NH3
A4 purple, then cloudy white/clear
after exposure to bright light
pink tint
L.
NH3 and CuSO4
A5 cloudy dark blue
Part F: Testing of Various Foods with the NaOCl + KI solution
Foods
Presence or Absence of Starch potato yes
lettuce turned somewhat dark green chip yes tortilla yes hot dog bun
yes
Part 2:
Household Chemicals with Bromthymol Blue
Use the empty pipet in the Auxiliary Supplies Bag to test several (at least 3) household items including household cleaning products with bromothymol blue. Rinse the pipet well before using it on the next household chemical. When finished with this experiment rinse the pipet well and return it to the Auxiliary Bag for use in future experiments. Name the items tested and record their results.
Household Chemicals
Well No.
Observations of the Reaction palmolive soap
H12 dark green windex G12
dark blue distilled vinegar
F12
yellow
Conclusion:
The objective of this experiment was to observe how different chemicals react. I was able to see how acids react with other compounds. When testing the foods with NaOCl and KI solutions, I was able to determine which foods around the house had starch. The chip, tortilla and hot dog bun immediately turned black once the KI solution was dropped. The potato turned a lighter black, and it took awhile for the color to show up. This could be a result of the potato being so dense. The lettuce turned a darker green
