Mastering Chemistry Chapter 1 Notes: Mixtures‚ Solutions‚ Pure Chemical Substances‚ Compounds‚ and Elements Matter can be classified into several categories. All substances are either pure chemical substances or mixtures. Mixtures can be separated into their component parts through physical means‚ whereas pure chemical substances require chemical or nuclear reactions to separate them. Pure chemical substances can be further divided into elements or compounds. Mixtures can be either heterogeneous orhomogeneous

Significant Figures. Significant figures are the number of digits that we may use including or excluding the zeros that we may be given with any number or solution. There are many different rules in determining the proper number of significant figure in an answer. For example; “All zeros to the right of the decimal place and to the right of a non zero digit are consider significant”. So we were given the number 45.000‚ we know from the rule above that this figure has 5 significant figures because the zeros

a tremendous variety of oxidation states that appear in its compounds. The oxidation numbers range from Mn (III) in compounds like Mn(NO)3CO to Mn (VII) in KMnO4. Compounds of manganese range in oxidation number between theses two extremes. This experiment involves the preparation of a Mn (III) complex of actylacetone (also named 2‚4-pentanedione) which is a useful starting material for the preparation of other Mn (III) compounds. Manganese (III) complexes are relatively stable and can be prepared

Experiment 5: Shifting Equilibrium A solution is in equilibrium when the rate of forward reaction and the rate of reverse reaction are equal. This equilibrium may be disturbed when the concentration of the reactants‚ the concentration of the products or the temperature is changed. If the process involves gases‚ a change in pressure can also affect the position of equilibrium. The concept behind this is Le Chatelier ’s Principle which states that when a system is disturbed through application

Biology College of Science De La Salle University – Dasmariñas Dasmariñas‚ Cavite Philippines ABSTRACT This experiment was performed to learn the technique of acid-base titration and to compare the efficiency of commercially available antacids by looking at their weight of HCl and weight of antacid values. The analysis of antacid tablets was highlighted in this experiment. The efficiency of antacid tablets was determined and compared when the number of grams of HCl can be neutralized by

Chemistry of love: how science can explain our daily lives? By Barton Dong Loving and being loved adds richness to our lives. When people feel close to others they are happier and even healthier. Love helps us feel important‚ understood‚ and secure. When people think of love‚ a romantic emotional scene appears in their minds. In the heavy days of a mutual crush‚ pulses race‚ knees go weak‚ and heads reel. So strong are these feelings‚ they’ve launched a thousand songs and
