EXPERIMENT 8 QUANTITATIVE DETERMINATION IODOMETRIC TITRATION OF COPPER CONCENTRATION IN AQUEOUS SOLUTION B Y RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Considered as moderately weak oxidizing agent‚ Iodine was used for the determination of strong reductants. Standard iodine solutions were found to have smaller electrode potentials as compared with the other oxidants‚ gaining them the advantage of imparting a degree of selectivity essential in the determination of strong reducing agents amid the presence

Rocks containing copper compounds (such as copper carbonate) are called ‘copper ore’. Copper is extracted from copper ore by a series of chemical‚ physical‚ and electrochemical processes. Ores can be classed as ‘high grade’ or ‘low grade’ depending on the percentage of copper compounds (e.g. copper carbonate) they contain. After mining‚ the ore is crushed‚ roasted‚ smelted and then electrolysed to extract the copper. Suggested Equipment Boiling tube Samples of different carbonate ores‚ containing

Environmental effects of copper Copper can be released into the environment by both natural sources and human actions. Examples of natural sources are wind-blown dust‚ decaying vegetation‚ forest fires and sea spray. Other examples are mining‚ metal production‚ wood production and phosphate fertilizer production. Because copper is released both naturally and through human activity it is very widespread in the environment. Copper is often found near mines‚ industrial settings‚ landfills and waste

3rd‚ 2009 Lab Report #3: Copper Cycle Abstract: The purpose of the experiment is to cycle solid copper through a series of five reactions. At different stages of the cycle‚ copper was present in different forms. First reaction involves reaction between the copper and nitric acid‚ and copper changed from elemental state to an aqueous. The second reaction converted the aqueous Cu2+ into the solid copper (2) hydroxide. In the third reaction Cu(OH)2 decomposed into copper 2 oxide and water when heated

to be relatively stable and has greater available chlorine than sodium hypochlorite (liquid bleach). Preparation It is manufactured by the calcium process: ~\mathrm{2Cl_2 + 2Ca(OH)_2\longrightarrow \ Ca(OCl)_2 + CaCl_2 + 2H_2O}. "Bleaching powder" is a mixture of calcium hypochlorite (Ca(OCl)2) and the basic chloride CaCl2‚ H2O with some slaked lime‚ Ca(OH)2. Properties Calcium hypochlorite is a yellow white solid which has a strong smell of chlorine. It is not highly soluble in water

An experiment to investigate the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction of the Enzyme Trypsin. Aim: This investigation was on the effect temperature has on the rate that the enzyme trypsin hydrolyses its substrate‚ a protein found in milk (casein). This investigation was conducted under controlled conditions‚ the temperature being the changeable variable. Trypsin and its substrate (powdered milk which is a source of the protein casein) were heated in a water bath. The contents of the two
