XPE RIME NT 4 . 5 Reactions of acids Aim To investigate and compare some reactions of a strong acid‚ hydrochloric acid‚ and a weak acid‚ ethanoic acid (common name‚ acetic acid) Equipment Dropper bottles containing: • 0.1 M hydrochloric acid‚ HCl • 0.1 M ethanoic acid (acetic acid)‚ CH3COOH • 0.1 M sodium hydroxide‚ NaOH • 1 M hydrochloric acid‚ HCl • 1 M ethanoic acid (acetic acid)‚ CH3COOH • universal indicator solution • limewater (calcium hydroxide‚ Ca(OH)2) Marble chips (calcium carbonate

evaporates‚ it lowers the temperature of the substances around them‚ because evaporation is an endothermic process. In the graph‚ each substance has a different curve. Some lowered the temperature much more than others. This is because different substances require differing amounts of energy to evaporate. To test this‚ the temperature change from the evaporation of 4 different alcohols was measured and compared‚ along with cyclohexane. Methanol had the largest change in temperature‚ 18.9 ºC. This indicates

goal by creating five reactions containing Sodium Sulfate that would confirm our compound and show its chemical properties. In each reaction‚ we replaced the presence of Sodium Sulfate with our unknown. Our first reaction was the reaction from the sulfate anion test between Sodium Sulfate and Barium Chloride. If the compound was in fact Sodium Sulfate it would produce a white precipitate and it did. The second reaction was first between Sodium Sulfate and Hydrochloric Acid‚ and then Silver Nitrate

Coursework Rates of Reaction Research The rate of reaction tells us how quickly a chemical reaction takes place. It is important for people in industry to know how fast a reaction goes. They have to know exactly how much of their product they can make each hour‚ day or week. In a shampoo factory‚ the rate might be 100 bottles per minute. We can’t work out the rate of a reaction from its chemical equation. Equations can only tells us how much product we can get. They don’t say how quickly

Due to the fact that it would be closer to the light source‚ the light would be slightly more intense‚ therefore the rate of photosynthesis would be slightly more advanced‚ causing a lower absorption. I also believed that Sample 1 the sample wrapped in aluminum would have the highest absorbance due to a lack of

Zinc and Hydrochloric-Acid Written By Kahlil Zione Date:02/02/05 Abstract: We observed the reaction between zinc and hydrochloric acid and recorded it in a table and learned wether the percentage of zinc is effected by the amounts of both substances added to the solution. Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to determine if the amount of zinc and hydrochloric acid will effect the percentage of the zinc in the out coming solution. We are reacting zinc metal with hydrochloric

Aim The aim of this experiment is to calculate the average human reaction time for a simple task. Hypothesis If the activity is repeated a number of times‚ then the reaction time will decrease‚ therefore the slower the reaction time‚ the further the ruler will fall. Variables - which variables are you going to: Change? (Independent Variable) The Independent Variable in this Investigation is the reaction time. Measure? (Dependent variable) The Dependent Variable in this Investigation is how

Factors affecting the rate of reaction between a metal and an acid The rate of a reaction can be measured by the rate at which a reactant is used up‚ or the rate at which a product is formed. The temperature‚ concentration‚ pressure of reacting gases‚ surface area of reacting solids‚ and the use of catalysts‚ are all factors which affect the rate of a reaction. Individual properties of substances also affect reaction rates. The scope of these properties is broad and there are few generalizations

A buffer is an aqueous solution that allows resistance to significant change in pH when small amounts of strong acids or base are added to it. (Boundless‚ 2015) This is usually formed when a weak acid is added to a salt of its conjugate base. (Chemicool.com‚ 2014) When an Alka Seltzer tablet is dissolved in water‚ a buffer is formed when the weak acid citric acid is present with sodium citrate (citrate ion) the conjugate base (Buffer Balancing Acts Buffers‚ 2009) "Na3C3H5O7 (aq) + 3 HCl (aq)
