Chemical Reactions Lab Report Introduction: Chemical reactions is a process that involves rearrangement of the molecular or ionic structure of a substance. There are different types of reaction such synthesis‚ decomposition‚ single replacement‚ double replacement‚ and combustion. Synthesis is where two or more reactants combine to create a product. For Decomposition‚ it is the opposite where a product breaks down into reactants. In Single Replacement‚ reactants switches an element with another element

TWO-BASE EXTRACTION OF BENZOIC ACID‚ 2-NAPHTHOL‚ AND NAPHTHALENE FROM UNKNOWN SAMPLE # 131 Douglas G. Balmer (T.A. Mike Hall) Dr. Dailey Submitted 11 July 2007 Introduction: The purpose of this experiment was to separate a sample of benzoic acid‚ 2- naphthol‚ and naphthalene of unknown proportions using a two-base extraction method. The three components of the mixture will react differently to sodium bicarbonate and sodium hydroxide because each of the bases’ conjugate acids has a different pKa

Acid Rain Introduction: Titrations are often recorded on graphs called titration curves‚ which generally contain the volume of the titrant as the independent variable and the pH of the solution as the dependent variable (because it changes depending on the composition of the two solutions). The equivalence point on the graph is where all of the starting solution (usually an acid) has been neutralized by the titrant (usually a base). One can easily find the pKa of the monoprotic acid by finding

this lab). This help us view the study of Law of Conservation of Mass‚ when either side of equation is equally balanced. The calculation for formula mass helps determine if you need to convert grams to a particular substance to moles‚ from a product. Moles are numbers that are in front of formulae. E.g.‚ 6NaCl‚ 6 is the equation for this formula. A mole would help you balance a skeleton equation‚ and also allows you to calculate how many moles are needed to take part in a chemical reaction.

Lloyd Term 2‚ 2014 Lauric Acid Experiment Teacher: Mr Oliver Contents 1.0 Introduction Elements and the compounds can exist in distinctive physical states. Liquid‚ solid‚ gas and plasma. Every element and compound has a distinctive melting and boiling point. When a substance reaches its melting and boiling point it will change phase. For example the molecules in a solid being heated gain energy and eventually are able to not only vibrate but

Preparation of Acetylsalicylic Acid Abstract Acetylsalicylic acid was prepared using salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. As a result‚ a white‚ powdery substance was formed (0.1931g‚ percent yield 91.30%) and was defined by melting point (124.5 – 134.5°C) and observation of color change with ferric chloride. Introduction Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) is one of the most popular analgesic drugs on the market today. It also acts as an antipyretic and anti-inflammatory drug. Salicylic acid itself

Acids‚ Bases‚ and Buffers Introduction: The pH scale is used to determine how acidic or basic a solution is‚ ranging from 1-14. The most acidic of all acids are at a pH level of 1 and the most basic of all bases are at 14. The neutral pH level is 7‚ which is what drinking water is. The pH level is determined by the amount of H+ ions present in a solution‚ and the more H+ ions there are the more acidic it is‚ and the lack of these ions results in more basic solutions. One distinguishing feature

Experiment three was divided into three parts; the preparation of the solutions‚ the reaction between Hydrochloric Acid and Ammonium Hydroxide (part b)‚ and the formation of Magnesium Oxide (part c). 200 mL of deionized water were added to a beaker followed by the addition of 100 mL 6 M HCl‚ which reacted to make 300 mL of a 2 M HCl solution used for Part B. Next‚ 50 mL of deionized water were added to a separate beaker and then 100 mL 3 M NaOH were added to the beaker to form 150 mL of a 2 M NaOH
