Victoria Wang‚ and Grace Xiong Mrs. Rhonda Smith Honors Chemistry Period 4 13 May 2012 Redox Reactions Lab Report We wished to investigate the oxidation number of a metal that would form aqueous ions when reacted with an aqueous nitrate salt. For this purpose‚ we chose to investigate the reaction of solid copper metal‚ in the form of a wire‚ with aqueous silver nitrate. Before we began the lab‚ we hypothesized that when silver nitrate‚ AgNO3‚ reacts with copper‚ Cu‚ the oxidation number

Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to determine the rate equation for the “Iodine Clock Reaction” experiment. The experiment will consider the equations 〖2I〗^-+S_2 O_8→2〖〖SO〗_4〗^(2-)+I_2 and I_2+2〖S_2 O_3〗^(2-)→2I^-+S_4 O_6 in order to determine the rate law of Rate=k[〖〖S_2 O_8〗^(2-)]〗^a 〖[I^-]〗^b by using the experimental data to calculate the values of exponents a and b as well as the rate constant k. Experimental Supplies Needed: 250 mL Erlenmeyer flask‚ 100 mL beaker‚ graduated

the limiting reactant of a chemical reaction that involves iron filings and a copper sulfate solution. Second‚ to determine the mole ratios between iron and copper and to show that a single replacement reaction occurs when iron and copper sulfate react with each other. And lastly‚ to determine/calculate the percent yield to better analyze the chemical reaction between iron and copper sulfate to produce copper and iron sulfate. The method used to perform this lab will be to combine a metal with a solution

Reactions in Aqueous Solutions: Metathesis Reactions and Net Ionic Equations Introduction: Metathesis or double decomposition reactions are a reaction in which two compounds react to form two new compounds‚ with no changes in oxidation number. The ions of two compounds exchange partners. AX + BY AY + BX This reaction can occur between two inorganic salts when one product is insoluble in water‚ driving the reaction forward. A typical example is as followed and is considered a molecular equation

Abstract The experiment is to identify the guilty suspect that is present at the crime scene by comparing with the DNA samples. Polymerase Chain Reaction(PCR) is used to amplify the small amount of Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) for forensic or genetic studies‚ which require necessary product and placed in the thermal cycle. Gel electrophoresis is being run in order to analyze and compare the DNA samples at the crime scene with the guilty suspects. Gel electrophoresis is used to separate DNA using

purpose of this lab was to find the theoretical and experimental percentage yields of the double displacement reaction between the solutions Lead (II) Nitrate (PbNO3) and Potassium Iodide (KI). It is important to obtain amounts of Lead (II) Nitrate and Potassium Iodide as close to 1.44g as possible. This reaction creates Lead (II) Iodide and Potassium Nitrate. The precipitate during this reaction is Lead (II) Iodide. The balanced equation is Pb(NO3)2 + 2KI= PbI2 + 2KNO3. In this lab the Lead (II) Iodide

Using Stoichiometry to Determine Gases Produced in a Reaction Introduction Magnesium is a metal and is the third most commonly used metal by chemists. Some would say it is the least dense structural metal. Its lightness is often alloyed with aluminum. Magnesium is also used in racing car wheels called MAG wheels. Many car-manufacturing companies will use magnesium and aluminum because of the lightness of the metal. Both of these metals are reactive with acids. The most common acid in they

The procedure was taken from “From Drosophila cDNA in E. coli plasmid to homologous human proteins” lab manual (4). - Colony Picking: Two E. coli colonies were grown on agar plates and treated with ampicillin. They contained the plasmid with genes for ampicillin resistance and Drosophila cDNA sequence. - Plasmid Isolation: We used the QuickLyse Miniprep Plasmid DNA purification systems to isolate the plasmid DNA. Indeed‚ the bacterial cells were removed from the liquid broth and were resuspended
