    In this experiment‚ gravimetric analysis will be used to determine the unknown metal carbonate. Gravimetric analysis. Gravimetric analysis is a method where an ion being analyzed can be classified through their mass (Yoder 2018). Due to the fact that carbonates can be hygroscopic‚ which means it would be able to absorb water from water vapor‚ extra precautions have to be taken place to be able to get an accurate mass (Helmenstine 2017). This can be done by using a drying oven and a desiccator. A

    Identification and Recreation of Unknown White Compound #643p November 13‚ 2012 INTRODUCTION: The identity of the unknown solid white compound is determined and verified through a series of tests which uncover physical and chemical properties necessary for identification. A new sample of the same compound is then created to further prove the accuracy of the identification. The compound must be identified in order to be used. For example‚ KCl is used in medicine‚ scientific applications‚ and

    Flame test: AIM: To determine which part of the salt is responsible for the characteristics in the flame. HYPOTHESIS: If we introduce a metal salt in the blue flame of the Bunsen burner‚ then the colour given off by the flame is due to the metal part of the salt. METHOD: (1) With a heat proof mat under the Bunsen burner‚ turn the gas on and light up the Bunsen burner with matches. (2) Pour enough Hydrochloric acid into a beaker. (3) Using your wire‚ dip it into the beaker containing Hydrochloric

    Carlie Haeffner Qualitative Analysis March 20‚ 2015 The purpose of this lab is to identify unknown ions in a solution by using a type of chemical reaction called precipitate reactions. The key to finding which ions are present in a solution is to form a precipitate which makes the ions “come out” in a reaction (McNeil‚ 2013-2014). Water is used in these experiments to act as a solvent. Since water is a polar molecule‚ the slightly positive and negative charges will sometimes pull apart molecules

    INTRODUCTION Flame photometry‚ also referred to as ’flame atomic emission spectrometry ’ is a quick‚ economical and simple way of detecting traces of metal ions‚ primarily Sodium‚ Potassium‚ Lithium‚ Calcium‚ and Barium‚ in a concentrated solution. The process is an extension of the principles used in a flame test‚ with the main differences having more precision in the results‚ and the use of more advanced technology. This report focuses on the theory‚ applications‚ limitations and analysis of Flame Photometry

    Chemical T ests for Unknowns Chemical tests have been developed as a means of identifying what functional groups are present in an unknown compound. Since IR and NMR spectroscopy has been developed‚ they are no longer critical to unknown analysis‚ but they can still be useful for confirming what you have determined by spectroscopy. Some of them look cool too! In order for a chemical reaction to work as a chemical test‚ it must 1) create a visible result (a color change‚ a precipitate‚ etc)
