Lab Report Ionic and Covalent Bonds Lab: Ionic and Covalent Bonds Introduction: The purpose of this experiment was to explore the properties of chemical substances that can be used to identify the types of bonds in a chemical substance using a laboratory procedure. The two types of bonds being identified were ionic and covalent. Based on a substance’s properties‚ how can you determine whether its bonds are ionic or covalent? This is the question I posed before starting the experiment.

How do ionic bonds form? Transferring the electron forms an ionic bond. After transferring the electron‚ the two atoms become ion n will attract together because they have the opposite charges. Then an ionic bond is formed. How do covalent bonds form? A covalent bond is for sharing of electrons. I remember it like co-existing electrons to share (Eg H20). It is usually between two non-metals. Which compound‚ sugar or salt‚ is a better conductor of electricity? Explain your answer. Salt

Writing ionic equations for redox reactions You can split the ionic equation into two parts‚ and look at it from the point of view of the magnesium and of the copper(II) ions separately. This shows clearly that the magnesium has lost two electrons‚ and the copper(II) ions have gained them. These two equations are described as "electron-half-equations" or "half-equations" or "ionic-half-equations" or "half-reactions" - lots of variations all meaning exactly the same thing! Any redox reaction

2. I noticed that all of the ionic compounds are soluble in water. This is due to the fact that water molecules are polar. Meaning that they have dipole bonds‚ which have a slightly positive and slightly negative end due to electronegativity differences between atoms. When ionic bonds are placed in water‚ they dissociate into their ions (positive and negative) due to the process of dissociation. These ions are then attracted to different dipoles present in the water molecule‚ in other words the negative

The Physical Properties of Eleven Chemical Compounds Problem: Discover whether various chemical compounds are molecular or ionic and if they are acidic or basic. Hypothesis: If the compound is ionic‚ then it will be soluble because the energy given off water molecules compensates for the energy needed to break ionic bonds‚ also‚ if the compound is Ionic‚ it will be an electrolyte‚ because they mostly break up into ions when in water. If the compound is molecular‚ then it will be soluble‚ it cannot

Writing Half Reaction and Net Ionic Equation Going back to our first concept or topic‚ we’ve learn how to identify the Oxidizing and Reducing agent and the Oxidation as well as the Reduction. In this part of the Redox reaction or in this step‚ it is very important that you already know the Oxidizing and Reducing agent for us to find the half reaction. In this step or part‚ we will also learn how to balance using the addition of electrons in both sides if necessary. After this step we can now write

Define and describe ionic and covalent bonds. An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions. A covalent bond is the chemical bond that involves the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms. A compound is made when two or more atoms form a chemical bond‚ linking them together. The two types of bonds are ionic bonds and covalent bonds. In an ionic bond‚ the atoms are bound together by the attraction between oppositely charged

Chemical Reactions Lab Objectives: 1. To examine a variety of reactions including precipitation‚ acid-base‚ gas forming‚ and oxidation-reduction reactions. 2. To identify the products formed in these reactions and summarize the chemical changes in terms of balanced chemical equations and net ionic equations. 3. To identify the species being oxidized and reduced in oxidation-reduction reactions and determine which species is the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent. Chemical equations represent

Experimental Prep and Optimum wavelength Selection An ionic Iron solution with a known concentration of 4.047x10-3 M was obtained. A 250-mL sample of a 10-fold dilution of this ionic iron solution and 5 drops of concentrated HNO3 was made. This solution served as the source of ionic Iron for the remainder of the lab and was labeled “stock ionic Iron solution.” Next‚ a 50-mL aqueous ionic Iron and FerroZine® complex solution was prepared by adding 5.00mL stock ionic Iron‚ 3-mL of acetic acid buffer‚ 2-mL of 5%
