Rocks containing copper compounds (such as copper carbonate) are called ‘copper ore’. Copper is extracted from copper ore by a series of chemical‚ physical‚ and electrochemical processes. Ores can be classed as ‘high grade’ or ‘low grade’ depending on the percentage of copper compounds (e.g. copper carbonate) they contain. After mining‚ the ore is crushed‚ roasted‚ smelted and then electrolysed to extract the copper. Suggested Equipment Boiling tube Samples of different carbonate ores‚ containing

Introduction A Voltaic Cell (also known as a Galvanic Cell) is an electrochemical cell that uses spontaneous redox reactions to generate electricity. It consists of two separate half-cells. A half-cell is composed of an electrode (a strip of metal‚ M) within a solution containing Mn+ ions in which M is any arbitrary metal. The two half cells are linked together by a wire running from one electrode to the other. A salt bridge also connects to the half cells. Through electrochemistry‚ these reactions

displacement that was going to occur when the two substances‚ iron and copper(II)sulfate‚ were mixed together in water. Seeing that iron was going to displace copper and take its place‚ it was chosen to be the limiting reagent with the condition that if it was in excess then after the displacement was completed‚ there will be iron precipitate left in the solution thus‚ we will not be able to identify and filter the copper metal. To weigh the amount of copper produced after it was filtered it first needed to

Experiment 3: Stoichiometry of a Precipitation Reaction Abstract: In this experiment‚ the objective is to use Stoichiometry to predict the amount of product produced in a precipitation reaction. We received working knowledge of how to accurately measure reactants and products of the reaction. We then are able to use the data that we recorded to make assessments of the actual yield opposed to the theoretical yield. When we calculated the percent yield we are able

It was hypothesized that if the animal was larger‚ then it would have larger hemoglobin. It was thought that larger mammals would need more oxygen-rich hemoglobin to support healthy function. This lab did not support this hypothesis. The results in table 1 displayed that the hemoglobin of all mammalian samples traveled about the same distance. This trend can be seen in graph 1 as the mammalian hemoglobin samples migrated the same distance. Because the proteins traveled around the same distance it

SIXTH FORM GOVERNMENT SCHOOL LAB EXPERIMENT TITLE: DETERMINATION OF THE MASS OF IRON (II) SULPHATE IN BRAND ‘X’ OF IRON TABLETS TEACHER’S REMARKS: Iron is a mineral that is a constituent in haemoglobin. Iron tablets usually contain iron in a cheap soluble form such as iron (II) sulphate. You are provided with brand ‘X’ of iron tablets which contains iron (II) sulphate along with other compounds. You are to prepare a solution of this tablet which has been grounded for you. You are also required to

Unknown Lab Report April 25th‚ 2006 Introduction The purpose of this lab was to identify two unknown bacteria cultures using various differential tests. The identification of these unknown cultures was accomplished by separating and differentiating possible bacteria based on specific biochemical characteristics. Whether the tests performed identified specific enzymatic reactions or metabolic pathways‚ each was used in a way to help recognize those specifics and identify the unknown cultures

Physics Lab Report Format General Remarks: Writing a lab report is the only way your TA will know what you have done during the lab and how well you have understood the process and the results. Part of your lab experience should be learning how to organize and present your work in a scientific way. There is no framework that can be used as a “one size fits all”‚ therefore this sample lab report should only be used as an example. Any lab report should have the following features:
