WEIGHT OF MAGNESIUM LAB Introduction The purpose of this lab was to determine the atomic weight of magnesium by measuring the amount of hydrogen gas evolved when hydrochloric acid reacted with magnesium. In order to measure the atomic weight I needed to measure the amount of the hydrogen gas that was evolved in reaction to the acid of the magnesium. The reaction used was: Mg + 2HCl --> H2 + Mg2+ (aq) + 2Cl- (aq). The major findings of this experiment were that there was a chemical reaction between

Honor’s Chemistry ! Experiment Number 6 ! November 28‚ 2014 ! ! Physical and Chemical Properties! Purpose/Hypothesis:! • The purpose of this experiment is to investigate the chemical and physical properties of pure chemical substances. A property of a substance is some distinguishing characteristic. Some of the most common physical properties are color‚ odor‚ hardness‚ density‚ melting point‚ boiling point‚ and solubility in various solvents. For all of these properties‚ no chemical change takes

Aim: To examine a number of different chemical reactions and determine if they are exothermic or endothermic. Apparatus: • Test tubes {Around 10-12 in number} • Test-tube rack • Spatula • Digital thermometer { ± 0.1° C} • Digital balance {± 0.01 g} • Measuring cylinder {± 0.5cm³} • Different chemicals Introduction/Theory: Exothermic reactions are those reactions that release energy in the form of heat. Endothermic reactions need to absorb energy in the form

IB1 Chemistry Practical #8 ANALYSIS OF ASPIRIN TABLETS For a long time the bark of the willow tree (salix alba) was used as a traditional medicine to relieve the fever symptoms of malaria. In the 1860’s chemists showed that the active ingredient in willow bark is salicylic acid (2-hydroxybenzoic acid) and by 1870 salicylic acid was in wide use as a pain killer (analgesic) and fever depressant (antipyretic). However‚ because it is a relatively strong acid‚ salicylic acid has the undesirable side effect

THE CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS (pp. 94-98) Electrolytes – forms ions when dissolved in water (or certain other solvents) and thus produce solutions that conduct electricity. Strong electrolytes – ionize essentially completely Weak electrolytes – ionize only partially Solution of weak electrolyte will be a poorer conductor than a solution containing an equal concentration of a strong electrolyte Brønsted-Lowry theory Acid is a proton donor Base is a proton acceptor H2O + HNO2 H3O+ +

Conductivity Solutions Abstract: We produced conductivity tests in water and other various solutions with a computer faced Conductivity Probe using the unit of microsiemens per centimeter (uS/cm) to find out which solutions had a high conductivity and which solutions had a low conductivity. Many different solutions vary in conductivity due to the ratio of ions. Different levels of ions have an impact on conductivity because of the different charges and different types of bonds. Conductivity is

In this lab‚ the pH of flat sprite and a fresh sprite are compared two ways: one way was to record the pH directly with a digital pH probe and the other was to calculate the concentration through titration. Because the reaction is a neutralization reaction‚ the concentration of can be calculated if the concentration of is known. At the end of the titration‚ the moles of will equal the moles of and the pH is expected to be greater than 7 because the found in sprite is weak and is a strong

was soluble in water as well‚ but it had a very low melting point. All the substances except for sodium carbonate did not pass the requirements‚ and therefore sodium carbonate is the best possible substance. In order to prove this‚ I conducted a lab to determine the solubility‚ conductivity‚ and melting point of each substance. First‚ I made sure to obtain a Bunsen burner‚ evaporating dish‚ ethanol‚ the four substances‚ distilled water‚ conductivity probe‚ wash bottles‚ test tubes‚ and a beaker
