Background The melting point of a compound is the temperature at which the solid is in equilibrium with its liquid. A solid compounds changes to a liquid when the molecules acquire enough energy to overcome the forces holding them together. A mixture melting point is useful in confirming and used to indentify an unknown compound‚ which we will be doing in this particular experiment. Purpose Measure the melting points of pure benzoic acid and pure mandelic acid. Determine the eutectic composition

Stir for 10 minutes‚ then add dropwise a solution of 0.63 g sodium acetate in 2.5 mL distilled water. Heat the resulting mixture on a hot plate to between 60 and 70oC for 15 minutes‚ with stirring‚ then cool to room temperature. Isolate the product by suction filtration and wash it with 6.0 mL of cold distilled water. Suction dry for 15 minutes‚ then dry

The purpose of the lab is to identify the compound based on a constant composition by performing a serious of tests. The hydrate is solid crystals compound and appears to be dry: since an ionic compound (salt) is crystallized from an aqueous solution (water)‚ by heating the hydrate the water is released from ionic structure; therefore it is possible to measure the weight of the ionic compound and calculate its ratio to the liquid in the hydrate. The goal of the lab is to establish the identity

faster they’re vibrating around‚ the hotter the object feels. We can sidestep this molecular picture by dealing with objects as a whole‚ and treating the energy transfer as the flow of heat‚ rather than kinetic energy transfer among particles. |Specific Heat for Various Materials | |Material |Specific Heat | | |(J/kg C°) | |Water |4186 | |Aluminum

Heat of Neutralization: Lab Report In part A of this lab I determined the heat capacity of a calorimeter made out of two Styrofoam cups nesting together with a cardboard top containing a hole in the middle. First I placed 50 mL of water in the calorimeter‚ waited five minutes for the water to reach equilibrium‚ and used the computer’s temperature instrument to record the final temperature of the system. Next I heated 50 mL of water in a 250 mL beaker until the water reached 43.1 C (approximately

This lab specifically does not require the knowledge of what each organism does when introduced to another living organism‚ like a human. Figuring out the type of bacteria could help with further experiments. The idea of the unknown bacteria lab is to show

Physics Lab Report Format General Remarks: Writing a lab report is the only way your TA will know what you have done during the lab and how well you have understood the process and the results. Part of your lab experience should be learning how to organize and present your work in a scientific way. There is no framework that can be used as a “one size fits all”‚ therefore this sample lab report should only be used as an example. Any lab report should have the following features:

Introduction Laboratory (Lab) reports are the most frequent document written by engineering student. These reports can contribute a significant amount of marks and yet little time or attention is devoted in understanding on how to write them well. The aim of this document is to provide a general guideline on writing a lab report. A lab report should not be

This lab activity will go over environmental factors that affect the folded structure of proteins. We used a raw egg and noted the changes that happen when there were changes in temperature‚ pH levels‚ and salinity. Five eggs were cracked open and placed into different bowls with different solutions placed into each bowl. What we looked at was the process of denaturing of proteins seeing how it affected the composition of the raw egg between the yoke and white portion. My hypothesis for this experiment
