This assignment entailed the task of investigation into the a) Conditions under which corrosion is accelerated‚ and b) Methods of preventing corrosion. Two experiments were implemented to answer these questions and hence reach a definate conclusion.First off let’s look at the background of corrosion and the way in which it occurs.The first hypothesis to answer was‚ ’What affect does water temperature have on the rate of corrosion of iron in sea water?’ The assumed answer was that ’ As temperature

Many people are unaware of the daily negative impact they have on the environment. For example‚ the majority of the human population uses basic household products which contain toxic chemicals in their ingredients. It is most common that when people dispose of products they will either dispose of them in the trash or pour them down the drain of their sink. Unfortunately‚ “two-thirds of aquatic life is considered to be an endangered species because of improperly disposed chemicals and other waste…those

Calorimetry: Enthalpy of Neutralization Introduction: The purpose of this lab experiment was to determine the molar concentration of the unknown HCl by using a coffee cup calorimeter. A coffee cup calorimeter is made of Styrofoam cups with a thermometer that is placed from the top and into the calorimeter to measure the temperature as the reaction happens. The Styrofoam cup used for the calorimeter creates an isolated system as it acts as a heat insulator between the cup and the surrounding

Chemistry Essay: Electrochemical Cells By John Williams An electrochemical cell is s cell in which chemical energy in a redox reaction is converted to electrical energy. It consists of two half cells connected internally by a salt bridge and externally by wires. A hydrogen half cell is the standard electrode and all comparisons of the other half cells are made against this half cell which has an E( value of zero volts. The E( values of other half cells are obtained by measuring the total emf (electromotive

Experiment 4: Conductivity of electrolyte solutions (Dated: October 29‚ 2009) I. INTRODUCTION Pure water does not conduct electricity‚ but any solvated ionic species would contribute to conduction of electricity. An ionically conducting solution is called an electrolyte solution and the compound‚ which produces the ions as it dissolves‚ is called an electrolyte. A strong electrolyte is a compound that will completely dissociate into ions in water. Correspondingly‚ a weak electrolyte dissolves
