History of Calcium- Calcium is a very interesting element that has a lot to tell about itself. There is much history to be learned about calcium. Calcium was actually discovered by Humphry Davy in 1808. Calcium’s name happens to come from the latin ‘calx’ meaning lime. Lime (calcium oxide‚ CaO) was a useful material that was created by heating limestone. Before the discovery of calcium‚ a man named Antoine Lavoisier classified the lime as “earth” because it was very difficult‚ almost

Abstract: Gravimetric analysis can be used to determine the percentage of phosphorus in plant food. A precipitant of known composition is produced and weighed to find percent of phosphorus in compound. From the mass and known composition of the precipitate‚ the amount of original ion can be determined. Introduction: Gravimetric analysis is based on the measurement of mass. Gravimetric analysis involves isolation of an ion in solution by a precipitation reaction‚ filtering‚ washing the precipitate

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To learn the concept of separating organic compounds by utilizing the concept of acid/base chemistry in so that separation can be done. INTRODUCTION Using acid base chemistry in the separation of substances can be a quite useful technique in organic chemistry. A basic extraction can be carried out by applying a hot solvent such as water to a dry substance like coffee. This will allow for the extraction of caffeine and flavor from the coffee beans. Acid base chemistry can be

1. Functions of Soap Soap primarily serves as a dirt remover and a cleanser. It is used in bathing‚ cleaning‚ and also as a lubricant. Oil‚ grease‚ and other forms of dirt do not dissolve in water. Conversely‚ soap can suspend these in such a way that it can be discarded through its ability to act as an emulsifying agent. This emulsifying agent enables the dispersion of liquid into another immiscible liquid. In this manner‚ oil does not mix with water whereby able to induce dirt. 2. Raw materials

Gravimetric Analysis of a Chloride Salt CHEM 1001 Purpose: To illustrate typical techniques used in gravimetric analysis by determining quantitatively the chloride content in an unknown soluble salt. Theory: AgCl(s) is a very insoluble solid‚ yet still does have some solubility. Because of these traits‚ the following reaction is able to occur: Ag+(aq) + Cl−(aq) → AgCl(s) . This reaction is able to occur in both directions. When a soluble silver salt such as AgNO3 is added to a solution containing
