An Experiment on Soil Analysis Jacob Pitcher and Derrick Gillespie Chemistry Lab 112 Section 02 4/02/2013 Abstract A sample of soil was tested for possible contaminants and other information using a variety of techniques including moisture analysis‚ pH measurement‚ acid-base titration‚ chloride-ion electrode analysis‚ and flame testing. The sample had a greater concentration of chloride ions‚ no measurable CaCo3 ‚ and lower than standard moisture content. It was contaminated with KCl and

MEMORANDUM From: To: Subject: Calcium Chloride Best Purchase for Deicing Enclosures: (1) Data Record (2) Data Treatment (3) Environment Impact Research After hours of vigorous examination‚ we have come to the conclusion that calcium chloride (CaCl2) would be the best deicer to use on a naval base over sodium chloride (NaCl) and ethylene glycol (C2H6O2). In order to melt ice‚ deicers lower the freezing point so that the ice melts at lower temperatures. CaCl2 has

UTAR FHSC1134 Inorganic Chemistry Trimester 3 Experiment 1 ________________________________________________________________________ Title: Investigating the Properties of Period 3 Oxides Aim: To examine the oxides of Period 3 elements and describe their structure and bonding. Introduction: Generally‚ there are oxides of metals and non-metals. Metals burn in oxygen to form basic oxides while non-metals form acidic oxides. Structurally‚ they are covalent or ionic compounds. You are to

Stoichiometry Design Experiment Percentage Yield of Calcium Carbonate and HCl I. Background Information When marble chips and hydrochloric acid are added together‚ they form sodium chloride‚ water‚ and carbon dioxide. This reaction can be displayed by the balanced equation below; CaCO3 (s) + HCl (l) NaCl(s) + H2O(l) + CO2 (g) As the carbon dioxide is formed‚ it will leave the open beaker as a gas. This will result in a loss of mass. The mass change can then be used to find the percentage

Observations of Chemical Changes Purpose: To observe some properties of chemical reactions and associate them with everyday household cleaning products. Procedure: In order to complete this experiment‚ I had to set up and organize my lab table. I used my 24-well plate‚ my 96-well plate‚ and the first experiment bag which included all of the necessary chemicals. I also had to gather 3 household cleaning products and a pipet in order to test them as well. The procedure involved was putting 2 drops of

DETERMINATION OF THE SOLUBILITY PRODUCT CONSTANT OF CALCIUM HYDROXIDE ABSTRACT This experiment aimed to determine the solubility product constant (Ksp) of Ca(OH)2 as well as to evaluate the effects of common and non-common ions on its solubility. Ca(OH)2 solids were dissolved in eight various media: distilled water‚ 1.0 M KCl‚ 0.5 M KCl‚ 0.1 M KCl‚ 0.05 M KCl‚ 0.005 M KCl‚ 0.001 M KCl‚ and 0.1 M Ca(NO3)2. The concentration of dissociated OH- concentrations was determined by means of titrimetric

The Bouncy Egg Experiment! Mrs. Murosky December 19‚ 2013 Introduction: GOAL: The goal of this experiment is to get an egg to bounce. WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT? : The results of the egg experiment is important because it shows what the membrane of an egg looks like‚ but allows the experimenter to have fun in the process. LITERATURE: The acids in the vinegar make the shell deteriorate. Eggs contain "calcium carbonate"(this is what makes it hard)‚ and vinegar is an acid. When they both combine

Is increased Consumerism a good thing? Consumerism is social and economic order that is based on the systematic creation and fostering of a desire to purchase goods or services in ever greater amounts. In other words‚ increased consumerism also increases consumption of goods. In today’s society consumerism is often portrayed to be a negative aspect of people’s lives and purchasing behaviours‚ which inevitably leads to materialism. So‚ increased consumerism has many disadvantages‚ such
