PUTTING IT TOGETHER: Classifying Chemical Reactions Purpose: To observe and differentiate between the four different types of chemical reactions. Variables: The independent variables are the sodium chloride‚ sodium carbonate‚ magnesium‚copper‚ copper (11) sulfate‚ silver nitrate‚ oxygen‚ lead(11) nitrate‚ sodium carbonate‚ copper (11) sulfate pentahydrate. The dependent variables are the chemical reactions that are being looked for. For example decomposition‚ synthesis‚ single displacement or double

Why Is Calcium Chloride Powder Used Extensively As A Bleaching Agent? In simple terms‚ calcium chloride is an inorganic compound having chemical formula CaCl2 (H2O)x where x can be 0‚1‚2‚4 and 6. All the salts produced by calcium chloride powder has a unique characteristic that they are highly soluble in water. This helps in applications where you need to remove snow‚ ice‚ or frost from any surface or even simple dust removal. It can absorb moisture from the surrounding environment‚ which is also

pH of soil.Soil that is too acidic presents two different problems for crops. First‚ the amount of necessary minerals in the soil such as potassium and calcium decreases. Second‚ aluminum and manganese levels increase to potentially toxic levels below a pH of roughly 5.5.Calcium oxide‚ addresses the problem. It reacts in water to release calcium ions and hydroxide ions‚ which raise the pH of the soil.The soil which is too acidic will be neutralised by the lime which is alkaline. H2O + CO2 -> H2CO3

How fast is your reaction? Part 1 – How temperature affect the rate of reaction Chemical equation Magnesium + hydrochloric acid → magnesium chloride + hydrogen Mg + 2HCL → MgCl2 + H2 Graph Conclusion and questions 1. What factors/variables did you keep the same in this experiment? * We kept the same volume of hydrochloric acid (10 cm3) and the magnesium ribbon (5cm) because that way we could get a fair test experiment. We also repeated

for Calcium Hydroxide GOAL AND OVERVIEW A saturated solution of Ca(OH)2 will be made by reacting calcium metal with water‚ then filtering off the solids: Ca(s) + H2O → Ca(OH)2(s) Ca2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) The concentration of dissolved hydroxide will be determined by acid-base titration with standardized HCl solution. The Ksp for Ca(OH)2 will be calculated from the experimentally determined saturation concentration of hydroxide. Objectives of the data analysis understand solubility equilibria‚ acid-base

before and after I have added calcium chloride‚ I will gradually increase the amount of calcium chloride by 1 gram to see if there is a significant change. When Calcium Chloride is mixed with water it performs an exothermic reaction which makes new bonds between the salt (Calcium Chloride) and the water. This will therefore make the solution of the reaction increase in temperature. Exothermic reactions transfer energy to the surroundings. Endothermic reactions take in energy from the surroundings

Acid rain is a rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic‚ meaning that it possesses elevated levels of hydrogen ions (low pH). It can have harmful effects on plants‚ aquatic animals and infrastructure. Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide‚ which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids. Governments have made efforts since the 1970s to reduce the release of sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere with positive results. Nitrogen

Amino Acids Glycine is the smallest of the amino acids. It is ambivalent‚ meaning that it can be inside or outside of the protein molecule. In aqueous solution at or near neutral pH‚ glycine will exist predominantly as the zwitterion. Alanine is a hydrophobic molecule. It is ambivalent‚ meaning that it can be inside or outside of the protein molecule. The α carbon of alanine is optically active; in proteins‚ only the L-isomer is found. Serine differs from alanine in that one of the methylenic
