Lab 2 Report for MATSE 473 Determining Molecular Weight using Solution Viscosity Name: Mengfang Li Group D Lab Partners: Michael Lorenzo‚ Peter Mcclure 01/24/2012 Introduction: This lab was designed to demonstrate the method to measure the intrinsic viscosity of the prepared polystyrene. Intrinsic viscosity‚ which is measured from the flow time of a solution through a simple glass capillary‚ has considerable historical importance for establishing the very existence of polymer molecules

Determining the accuracy of varieties of pipettes by weighing and finding the density of a liquid Abstract Different varieties of pipettes (P100‚ PR1000 pipettors and a serological pipette) along with a weighing balance was used in this investigation to check the density of an unknown liquid by first finding out what the liquid weighed and plotting a graph of the mass in grams against the volume of the liquid used in micro litres (µl) and finding the gradient of the graph (∆Y/∆X). Most of the

Validity Define Construct Validity and Explain and Illustrate three ways in which a researcher can determine whether a new psychological tests has construct validity. In addition briefly explain what is meant if a test is biased in terms of construct validity. Construct Validity • • • • • • • • • Construct Validity: extent to which a measure measures theoretical construct or trait Developmental changes: ▪ when tests should show change with age ▪ age differentiation

Determining Your Perfect Position Paper LDR/531 May 18‚ 2013 Determining Your Perfect Position Paper By understanding leadership styles will help develop a person into being an effective leader. We will describe the author’s leadership style model and also look into the strengths and weaknesses of that model. Then compare and contrast leadership theories applicable to the author’s leadership approach. Leadership has different characteristics and behaviors then management Leadership Style

Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to determine the freezing point of pure water‚ the experimental van’t Hoff factor for a substance and the molar mass of an unknown solution. Reagents: 25mL deionized Water ¼ to ½ inches of rock salt 25mL Sodium Nitrate (NaNO3 ) 25mL unknown solution – handle unknown solution carefully Procedure: For part 1‚ the freezing point of deionized water was determined. An ice bath was prepared by filling a 600mL beaker ¾ full of ice and covered with ¼ to

H_2 The purpose of this experiment is to determine the mass % of through the Volumetric Analysis method. To attain this purpose‚ a decomposition reaction was performed‚ which can be separated into two steps. First‚ 2 mL of was reacted with approximately .5 g of KI in an Erlenmeyer flask to form and a hypoiodite species. The second step is the reaction between another molecule of and hypoiodite‚ which results in reformation of the catalyst‚ potassium iodide. The catalyst is used to speed up

ABSTRACT The experiment deals with determining the standard reduction potentials of different electrochemical half-cells through pairing it with Cu2+(0.1 M)|Cu half-cell and then comparing it with the theoretical value. Galvanic or voltaic cells contain the anodic and cathodic cell reactions‚ and in order to get the value of Ecell‚ we add both half-reactions. The more positive the Ecell‚the more negative ΔG would be‚ thus‚ giving us a spontaneous reaction. After comparing the cell potentials

I. Abstract: By manipulating the ideal gas law (PV=nRT)‚ we will be determining the molar mass of an unknown volatile liquid. Heating a flask filled with an unknown‚ easily evaporated liquid will allow for measurements that can be taken to work out the ideal gas equation. This lab will require knowledge of basic equations used in chemistry. Using these equations‚ such as density and number of moles(n)‚ we can substitute different values into the ideal gas law to manipulate it.

Determining the Limiting Reactant and Percent Yield in a Precipitate Reaction (SMG 6D) AP Chemistry One example of a double replacement (metathesis) reaction is the mixing of two solutions resulting in the formation of a precipitate. In solution chemistry‚ the term precipitate is used to describe a solid that forms when a positive ion (cation) and a negative ion (anion) are strongly attracted to one another. In this experiment‚ a precipitation reaction will be studied. Stoichiometry
