Title: Calculating the Atomic Mass of “Pennium” Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to calculate the atomic mass of “pennium” using pennies made before 1982 and pennies made 1982 or after. Hypothesis: The atomic mass of the pennium will be the average of the average masses of a pre-1982 penny and a post 1982 penny. Procedure: 1. Obtain a bag of pennies 2. Determine the total number of pennies in the bag. Record the value. 3. Sort the pennies by date into 2 piles. One pile should consist

Willy Rupprecht Date(s) performed: October 2 - 3‚ 2012 Gravimetric Analysis of an Unknown Group 1 Metal Carbonate Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to determine the identity of a Group 1 metal carbonate compound by gravimetric analysis. Procedure: The unknown carbonate is weighed and then dissolved in water. A solution of CaCl2 (calcium chloride) is added to the metal carbonate solution to precipitate the carbonate ions as CaCO3 (calcium carbonate). The precipitate is then filtered‚ dried

Nicolette Lindberg 11/30/12 IB Biology 2‚ Period 1 Transpiration Lab Background Information- Transpiration is the loss of water from a plant. Plants transpire water out of the stomata in their leaves at a different rate in every environment. The amount of transpiration is affected by the environment‚ how developed the plant is to not lose as much water‚ the surface area of the leaves‚ and how affected the plant is by its environment (Von Bargen). For this experiment‚ the plant we used was (Viola

Check-List for Laboratory Reports 1. Your lab report must be written by word processor or by hand. Note that if it is written by hand it is your responsibility to ensure that it is legible and written in ink. 2. You must attach a cover sheet that will be the front of the report that contains your name‚ student ID‚ rotation number‚ and the name of your TA. Your rotation number = 1 if you are in my tuesday class and your rotation number = 2 if you are in my wednesday class. Failing to provide

Molar Mass Lab 3.09 Molar Mass of Compounds Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to determine the formula of a copper sulfate hydrate by heating it up. Materials: Hydrate‚ crucible‚ balance‚ Bunsen burner and scale Procedure: First you measure the mass of the empty crucible and record that mass. Then you should fill the crucible with 3-5 scoops of the hydrate and record that mass as well. Heat the hydrate filled crucible above the Bunsen burner for 10 minutes for all f the water to evaporate

To Test Charles’ Law and estimate Absolute Zero In this IB Lab you will be assessed on the following criterion Conclusions and Evaluation Aim: Physics has many hundreds of laws and these can be tested in experiments to see if they are true. In 1787 the French scientist‚ J.A.C. Charles‚ published a law connecting the volume and temperature of gases. Your task is to see if you agree with his law. Another thing you have to consider is “ is my experiment accurate enough to prove or disprove the

The study of urinary chemistry on stone forming minerals will provide a good indication of risk of stone formation. Urinary supersaturation with respect to stone-forming constituents is generally considered to be one of the causative factors in calculogenesis. Though supersaturation of stone forming salts in urine is essential‚ abundance of these salts by itself will not always result in stone formation. Various substances in the body have an effect on one or more of the stone forming processes (nucleation
