A hydrate is any compound that contains water in the form of H2O molecules and usually has a definite content of water by weight. Hydrates typically have a crystal like appearance that can vary in colour and have a naming scheme based on the compound and number of water molecules that are in the hydrate. Copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate‚ or CuSO4 * 5H2O‚ is a ratio of one copper sulfate to five (penta) molecules of water. Copper sulfate pentahydrate is a blue hydrate while anhydrous copper sulfate

Practical 5: Properties of Compound Experiment 1: Properties of A Compound and Its Parent Elements Hypothesis The hypothesis of this experiment is magnesium oxide can be synthesized by combining (burning) the magnesium with oxygen. The chemical and physical properties of each element (magnesium‚ oxygen‚ and magnesium oxide) might be different‚ from the state‚ color‚ electrical conductivity‚ and pH. Aim This experiment was performed to synthesize magnesium oxide by direct combination of

metal that naturally originates from seawater. The compound is odorless and colorless that makes it difficult to see by the naked eye. To produce such compound‚ extraction from the seawater by electrolysis and several chemical processes id done. The compound is formed from the thermal processes which make uses of air and oxygen. Magnesium hydroxide is also produced. The versatility of uses of magnesium oxide is at its excellent level since the compound itself has several beneficial properties. In the

Introduction The purpose of the experiment was to determine the melting points of compounds using a Mel-Temp device. The melting point of naphthalene‚ urea‚ and sulfanilamide are found. This is then followed by the measuring of an unknown compound‚ and an impure sample (a small amount of naphthalene mixed with the unknown). Experiment In the lab‚ the height of the chemical in the capillary was set to 2-3 mm thickness. The voltage at the Mel-Temp started at a low setting of 1.5-2. The heat was

MODULE 1: THE CHEMICAL EARTH 3.1.1: Elements in Earth are present mostly as compounds because of interactions at the atomic level * Identify that matter is made of particles that are continuously moving and interacting Matter: anything that has mass and occupies space. Exists in three different states: solid (s)‚ liquid (l) and gas (g) The Particle Theory: “All matter is made up of small‚ indivisible particles called atoms that are continuously moving” | Solid | Liquid | Gas | Particle

Water and Sodium Chloride were compounds given they are two or more elements‚ while mixing them we were able to create a solution. The Nacl that dissolves into H20 are techinically dissociated into ions but after heating it the table salt comes back without H20. Introduction Matter is anything that occupies space and has a mass. It can be classified into elements‚ compounds and mixtures. Pure substances are divided into categories as elements and compounds. Elements cannot be divided into

Background The melting point of a compound is the temperature at which the solid is in equilibrium with its liquid. A solid compounds changes to a liquid when the molecules acquire enough energy to overcome the forces holding them together. A mixture melting point is useful in confirming and used to indentify an unknown compound‚ which we will be doing in this particular experiment. Purpose Measure the melting points of pure benzoic acid and pure mandelic acid. Determine the eutectic composition

distillation and gas chromatography to separate and identify different compounds from a given mixture. There are several kinds of distillation methods. However‚ the method that we used in this experiment was fractional distillation. This method is used when trying to separate two different volatile compounds whose boiling points differ by 40-50°C or more. If the boiling points are too close‚ this method will not work because the two compounds will begin evaporating at close temperatures and will condense

Explain the structure of metals‚ ionic compounds‚ covalent molecules and covalent networks and give examples of compounds and elements that have these structures. Metals – In a piece of metal‚ the outer shell of electrons are not closely to their own atoms. They leave their atoms‚ forming positively charged ions‚ and tend to wander

Commonly used antiseptics for skin cleaning include benzalkonium chloride‚ chlorhexidine‚ hexachlorophine‚ iodine compounds‚ mercury compounds‚ alcohol and hydrogen peroxide. Other agents which have been used for this purpose‚ but have largely been supplanted by more effective or safer agents‚ include boric acid and volatile oils such as methyl salicylate (oil of wintergreen.)
