10/19/2011 Akruti Patel Lab Report #4: Determination of a chemical formula: the empirical formula of Magnesium Oxide 1. Purpose: Determine the empirical formula of magnesium oxide from the percent composition (this can found using the Analytical Method and the Synthesis Method). 2. Introduction: In the late eighteenth century‚ combustion has been studied extensively. In fact‚ according to Steven and Susan Zumdahl‚ Antoine Lavoisier‚ a French Chemist‚ performed thousands of combustion experiments

GRAVIMETRIC DETERMINATION OF SULFATE Purpose You will be given a solid powder‚ which has been dried to constant mass. The sample is water soluble. The purpose of this experiment is to determine the concentration of sulfate in your solid sample using gravimetric analysis. Background Gravimetric Analysis The goal of most quantitative chemical analysis measurements is to estimate the relative abundance of an analyte in a chemical sample. For solid and liquid samples‚ a very common expression

Determination: the ability to strive for and accomplish a set goal. Determination is one of the most important trait anyone can have. It helps you succeed and overcome any boundaries thrown your way. Determination is so significant because without it many feats wouldn’t have been accomplished. It can help people succeed no matter what obstacles they have to face. First‚ if no African-American had revolted against the status quo and been determined to end all the injustices that African Americans

Determination of an Equilibrium Constant Abstract: In this experiment‚ two reactions were run to determine the molar absorptivity and the equilibrium constant of FeSCN2+. The main principles used in this lab are equilibrium‚ LeChatlier’s Principle‚ Beer’s Law and Spectrocopy. The first reaction was run to completion using LeChatier’s Principle and the second reaction was run to equilibrium. A spectrophotometer was used to measure absorbances. Using a graph of absorbance versus concentration

Brain Death Determination When the brain has a lack of oxygen‚ even for a few minutes‚ it could lead to loss of brain functions such as a gradual loss level of consciousness or a complete loss of consciousness causing the person to slip into a coma. In the most profound cases‚ irreversible brain damage and death occurs. Oxygen deficiency can by caused by many things‚ such as; a brain injury‚ fall from height‚ traffic accidents‚ heart failure‚ stroke or some neurological disease. That may cause

Free exchange Savers’ lament The complex effects of low interest rates on consumption and investment Dec 1st 2012 | from The Economist print edition WHEN interest rates hit double digits in the late 1970s‚ house-builders sent planks of wood to the Federal Reserve in protest. With rates stuck near zero‚ the protests now come from the opposite direction. The retired complain of a “war on savings”. The Fed cut rates to current levels at the end of 2008 and has promised to keep them there until

Effects of Raising Interest Rates If a central bank increases the base rate‚ this tends to increase all major interest rates in the economy. This means interest rates for both savers and borrowers will increase. Higher interest rates will have various economic effects: 1. Increases the cost of borrowing. Interest payments on credit cards and loans will be more expensive. Therefore this discourages people from borrowing and saving. People who already have loans will have less disposable income
