Constant of an Unknown Ester Hydrolysis Reaction Abstract The experiments to follow determined that the equilibrium concentrations of the reaction: ester + water ↔ alcohol + acid‚ are equal to 0.0363 moles of ester‚ 0.2852 moles of water‚ and 0.0268 moles each of alcohol and acid. Using this information the equilibrium constant was determined to be 0.06938. 1. Introduction In this lab the equilibrium constant‚ Kc‚ for the acid catalyzed reaction between an unknown ester and water

first step in) this experiment is to show that similarly to week 1‚ the molarity of an acid or base in solution can be determined (so long as one value’s is known) using titration. In this case though‚ finding the molarity of the acid used in the reaction is then used to determine the percent of that acid in a vinegar solution and compared to the standard value for % acid present in vinegar. The second part of the experiment was to see if by titrating a solution of NaOH and an unnamed mystery acid

CHEM 1211 L Principles of Chemistry Lab 16 February 2004 Lab Report 1 Introduction The purpose of this project is to identify an unknown organic acid (X) by conducting various experiments to determine the acid’s unique properties. By determining selected constant properties of the unknown and then comparing these properties to the constant properties of known substances‚ it is possible to identify an unknown substance. The properties used to identify the unknown must be intensive‚ or independent

Careful observations are the first step in this process. An observation is a fact obtained with the senses. ------------------------------------------------- You might think that a burning candle is pretty simple. But

purpose of this experiment was to discover the chemical properties that copper has when reacting with other chemicals and how it changes physically during these processes. (Department of Chemistry‚ 2013) This was achieved through many types of reactions‚ such as a redox reaction‚ double displacement‚ decomposition reaction and single displacement depending on the chemical properties in relation to copper of the other substances when it was added with copper. Copper was either in an aqueous state or a solid

neither be created or destroyed. There are two types of changes that can happen‚ a physical change is when the reaction can be reversed and all reactants are separated. A chemical change is when the reaction changes the reactants and creates a brand new substances that can’t be reversed. Antoine Lavoisier had the main contribution to The Law of Conservation. He wrote a textbook in 1789 on chemistry in it he introduced the Law of Conservation. He founded the 3 types of matter (solid‚ liquid‚ and gas). Along

Soda and Mentos Reaction: Any kind of Soda and Mentos interaction will expedite a geyser of both carbon dioxide and foam. Soda has a few properties‚ for instance‚ an sweetener or an artificial flavouring‚ but it’s main factor that contributes to the reaction is carbonated water. Carbonated water is basically water with Carbon Dioxide compressed within it‚ it causes the drink to be fizzy and bubbly. This contributes to the reaction because it the fizz and bubbles are gas‚ which tries to escape from
