Experiment to investigate the effect of concentration of electrolyte on the current of voltaic cell Aim The aim is to identify the relationship between the concentration of H2SO4 solution and the current of Cu-Zn voltaic cell. Hypothesis My hypothesis is that the greater the concentration of sulfuric acid the bigger the current of the voltaic cell. In a voltaic cell‚ chemical energy is concerted to electrical though the oxidation and reduction happen on the electrodes. Current will not flow

Give a conclusion‚ which describes why the mass of copper carbonate may have changed during your experiment. When the copper carbonate is heated it decomposes forming copper oxide and carbon dioxide. The copper carbonate turns into a bright

of lab report: Practical 2 Investigation of Action of Saliva and 3 M Hydrochloric Acid in Two Carbohydrate Solutions Lecturer’s name: Mr. Paul Davidson Discussion The name of enzyme involved in this experiment is salivary amylase‚ which presents in our saliva. Salivary amylase catalyses the breakdown of complex sugar‚ such as starch‚ into a simple sugar‚ such as glucose. In this experiment‚ the optimum temperature for salivary amylase to function is 37˚C. Above

investigation: The speed of a metal carbonate breaking down depends on where the metal is in the reactivity series. The more reactive a metal is the slower it takes for it to breakdown. The less reactive a metal is it breaks down faster. Explain the hypothesis using scientific ideas: The metal carbonate which is lower in the reactivity series such as copper can thermally decompose much faster because it is the least reactive metal so its an unstable carbonate and the bonds are much weaker. So

first discovered in England during the year 1808 by Sir Humphry Davy. He was able to separate calcium into a pure metal by doing an electrolysis process on a mixture of lime HgO‚ which is mercuric oxide. However‚ Sir Humphry Davy was not able to do this until after he found out Berzelius and Pontin electrolysed lime into mercury which constructed calcium amalgam. Although he discovered calcium in 1808‚ calcium metal was not available in large amounts until the beginning of the twentieth century. Before

The Effect of the Concentration of Sulphuric Acid on the Reaction Rate with Magnesium Sarah Cain SCH 4UB Mr. Lankin April 1‚ 2009 Introduction The nature of the problem is to design an investigation that examines a variable affecting the reaction rate. In this experiment‚ magnesium will be reacted with different concentrations of sulphuric acid. The reaction is shown by the following chemical equation: H2SO4 (l) + Mg (s) → MgSO4 (aq) + H2

Add water to the acid to change the concentration to what you need. 3.Take note of the amount of water in the measuring cylinder. 4.Put the marble chips and hydrochloric acid into the conical flask. Replace the bung and start the stopwatch. 5.Once the decided amount of time has passed‚ take note of the remaining
