10/30/17 Periodic Table Project Mrs. Foley: Period 1 Magnesium Magnesium is a major element. It’s the 7th ample element in the earth’s crust and the 8th most plenteous element in the universe and has diverse uses; some important and others impressive. Magnesium came from Magnesia‚ a district found in Greece. Magnesium was first discovered in 1755 by a scientist‚ Joseph Black. Black conducted an experiment in which he distinguished magnesium oxide from calcium oxide. It was later isolated by Sir

gradientless reactors‚ pulse microreactors‚ isotope labelling‚ IR microreactors‚ while good for fundamental kinetic studies‚ prove to be less useful iu providing information about the macrokinetics of a catalytic process. In many cases the mass and heat transfer phenomena essential for the modelling of industrially operating reactors can be made by analysing the experimental concentration and temperature profiles. The water-gas shift reaction studied in the present work is a reversible exothermic

OH-‚ or H20 is added. By using standard lab equipment‚ a lab pro diagnostic tool‚ and acidic and basic solutions‚ the pH can be found. By recording the pH while adding a base or an acid gradually to a buffer solution you can find the capacity of each buffer to resist drastic changes in pH. The best buffers will keep a solution from becoming either too acidic or basic with the addition of a strong base or acid. Introduction The objective of the Irresistible lab is to determine the capacity of each

A known starting mass of magnesium and the measured collection of hydrogen gas will be used to determine the reaction stoichiometry and the valency of magnesium Introduction Stoichiometry is the study of the quantitative relationship between amounts of reactants and products of a reaction. Stoichiometry can be used to calculate the amount of a product formed when given the reactants and a percentage yield. In the case of this experiment‚ a known starting mass of magnesium ribbon and the amount of

Working out the Formula of Magnesium oxide Aims When magnesium is heated in air‚ it reacts with oxygen. During this oxidation reaction‚ magnesium oxide is produced. This increases the mass. If we know the mass of magnesium at the start‚ and the mass of magnesium oxide produced at the end‚ we can work out the mass of oxygen which has been combined with the magnesium. We can use these masses to work out the formula of magnesium oxide. Apparatus Googles

Chapter 11 Internal Combustion Engines 11.1 Introduction Internal combustion engines differ from external combustion engines in that the energy released from the burning of fuel occurs inside the engine rather than in a separate combustion chamber. Examples of external combustion engines are gas and steam turbines. The gas turbine power plant utilizes products of combustion from a separate combustor as the working fluid. These gases are used to drive the gas turbine and produce useful power. The

The Combustion of Diamond and Methane Methane is a hydrocarbon compound that is found in a gaseous state at room temperature. It has the chemical formula CH4‚ it is an odourless‚ colourless gas that is a large percentage of ‘natural gas’ and is a large contributor to global warming as it is a greenhouse gas and is flammable so is used as a fuel. Methane is a product of the covalent bonding of carbon and hydrogen. Products of the combustion of methane include carbon dioxide‚ water‚ soot and carbon

Investigation of Combustion of Alcohols Aim The aim of this experiment is to investigate the combustion of various alcohols. The alcohols will be burnt to heat up a test tube of water‚ I aim is to find out how much energy is produced when burning the following alcohols: Methanol‚ Ethanol‚ Propanol‚ Butanol‚ and Pentanol. Any form of burning is an exothermic reaction (heat is given out)‚ this means that the reactants energy is higher than that of the product. Alcohols react with

(Internal Combustion Engine) Name: Chia Wei Qian ID: 1101C12664 Period 4 Date: 14 May 2012 Lecturer: Mr. Jaroslaw Cebrowski Introduction Car engine is amazing machine that convert the heat energy to mechanical energy to let the car move. As we know the modern car engine is works in the internal combustion so it is call internal combustion engines. But for the older technology‚ they used External Combustion Engines. It is far lower efficiency than internal combustion engines.
