Observing the and determining the reaction rate of photosynthesis in Ivy disks Background: All plants are autotrophs meaning they create their own food from inorganic chemicals in their surrounding. In the case of food‚ plants use CO2 to create glucose. In addition to the inorganic chemicals‚ plants use sunlight to create their glucose because the photosynthesis reaction is endothermic. The rate of this reaction‚ in turn‚ can be measures. And this lab uses oxygen which is created

Lab #5 Chemical Reactions & Balancing Equations Objectives Observe and classify several chemical and physical changes. Give evidence for the occurrence of a chemical reaction. Write a balanced equation for a chemical reaction. Identify a reaction as a combination‚ decomposition‚ replacement‚ or combustion reaction. Background Physical properties can be observed without changing the chemical composition of the substance. Common physical properties that can be measured without changing the chemical

The purpose of this lab was to use a calorimeter to learn when energy is being released or absorbed in a chemical reaction. My lab partner and I had to determine the heat exchanged when solid magnesium hydroxide is mixed with solid citric acid‚ using a coffee cup calorimeter. Given that citric acid is soluble in water is the property that makes this reaction possible. The first law of thermodynamics and Hess’s law are also present within this experiment. Knowing the difference between endothermic

Analysis of a Chemical Reaction Purpose: To observe a chemical reaction and to use qualitative and quantitative evidence to identify this reaction from among four possibilities. Hypothesis: I think the result is going to produce water. I think this is going to happen because there is hydrogen and oxygen inNaHCO3. Materials: -Test tube clamp - 150 mm test tubes (2) - burner - retort stand - clay triangle - iron ring - crucible Procedure: Part A: 1. Add 0.5 g of NaHCO3

Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to separate and purify a compound. This was achieved using techniques that allowed the extraction of the acid‚ the isolation of the neutral compound and the melting point classification of the neutral compound to test the purity of the sample. Chemical Reactions: HA + OH- A- + H2O R-COOH + OH- R-COO- + H2O Organic Acid Insoluble in H2O Conjugate base Soluble in H2O Procedure: A 0.170g sample consisting of a mixture of 0.110g

Bags of Reactions * Problem/Purpose * Background Information: The Law of Conservation of Mass was created by Antoine Lavoisier in the 18th century. This law stated that mass could matter could neither be created nor destroyed. During a reaction the bonds of the reactants are broken and form new substances. As stated in the Law of Conservation‚ matter can neither be created nor destroyed; because of this the products should have the same number and type of atoms as seen in the reactants

Since the Grignard reagent can easily react with water‚ all glassware including the 25 ml round bottom flask‚ magnetic stir bar‚ 3 and 5 ml conical vial‚ 50 mL Erlenmeyer flask‚ claisen adapter‚ drying tube and 5 glass pasteur pipets were first added to a 250mL beaker and placed in the oven for 30 minutes. After the completion of the thirty minutes‚ 0.150 g of shiny magnesium turnings and a stir bar was first added to the round bottom flask and the claisen adapter along with the drying tube packed

In the lab testing the heat of a reaction to understand changes in enthalpy in an exothermic reaction‚ the group hypothesized that if the amount of reactant is changed then the amount of heat produced (exothermic) will increase. This hypothesis was supported through the data as each of the six trials produced heat and the larger the piece of magnesium the larger the change in heat was. In the first trial the group had .085 grams of Mg and after being placed in 3 ml of 21.8℃ HCl the temperature of

The Sequence of Chemical Reactions Drew Selfridge Dave Allen‚ Lab partner Instructor Yang February 11‚ 1997 INTRODUCTION This experiment was to recover the most amount of copper after it is subjected to a sequence of reactions. The copper is originally in solid form‚ but the reactions will turn it into free Cu+2 ions floating in solution. The ions will then be regrouped to form solid copper once again. During this process‚ however‚ some of the Cu+2 ions may be lost. The copper will subjected
