Chemistry of Bath Bombs Date: 16th May 2014 Introduction – When sodium bicarbonate and citric acid mix in water they dissolve‚ the sodium bicarbonate reacts with the citric acid to form sodium citrate and carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide then bubbles out as a gas‚ which makes the bath bomb break up‚ in this experiment 3 tests will be conducted in order to find the correct ratio of bicarbonate soda and citric acid to create the

The focus of this report is alchemy as a pre-chemistry‚ which gave a new impulse towards the preparation of medicinal remedies and also was a major influence on today’s scientific investigations.<br><br>Alchemy is an ancient art‚ practiced in the Middle Ages. The fundamental concept of alchemy stemmed from Aristotle’s doctrine that

Four elements‚ hydrogen‚ carbon‚ oxygen and nitrogen‚ are the major components of most organic compounds. Consequently‚ our understanding of organic chemistry must have‚ as a foundation‚ an appreciation of the electronic structure and properties of these elements. The truncated periodic table shown above provides the orbital electronic structure for the first eighteen elements (hydrogen through argon). According to the Aufbau principle‚ the electrons of an atom occupy quantum levels or orbitals starting

Conclusion The purpose of this experiment was to discover the chemical properties that copper has when reacting with other chemicals and how it changes physically during these processes. (Department of Chemistry‚ 2013) This was achieved through many types of reactions‚ such as a redox reaction‚ double displacement‚ decomposition reaction and single displacement depending on the chemical properties in relation to copper of the other substances when it was added with copper. Copper was either in an

SYNTHESIS AND CHEMISTRY OF K2S2O8 ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ a sample of K2S2O8 was prepared by the electrolysis of an aqueous solution of H2SO4 and K2SO4. The peroxodisulfate anion‚ S2O82-‚ was also observed for its ability to serve as a counterion for precipitation by preparing a copper (II) complex by reacting hydrated copper (II) sulfate with ammonium peroxodisulfate in the presence of pyridine. This same ability‚ coupled with its strong oxidizing ability allowed for stabilization of
