Post-Lab Questions 1. Using the information provided in the Introduction and your observations from Part 1‚ hypothesize as to the type of electrolyte the following solutions would be. Justify the hypothesis from a chemical standpoint. a. Aqueous Sodium Hydroxide—NaOH (aq) is a very strong base‚ which will completely disassociate into Na+ and OH- ions‚ which would make it a very strong electrolyte. Chemical reaction of the disassociation of Sodium Hydroxide: NaOH (aq)Na+ (aq)+ OH-(aq)

Acid Base Titration Purpose: The purpose is to calculate the molarity of a NaOH solution by titrating the base with 5mL of standard HCl solution in each trial. By adding the base with unknown molarity to the acid with 0.10M the molarity of NaOH can be calculated. The base‚ NaOH‚ helps bring the pH of the acid‚ HCl‚ closer to seven‚ which neutralizes it. When using the buret the amount of NaOH used is able to be determined. Then by writing a balanced chemical equation and using the titration

Salinity by mass resulted in a more exact manner; however‚ it is less efficient since it took longer. Contrasted to this‚ the retest used the most efficient and exact method. In the “Volatile Organics” experiment‚ methanol is interpreted as the “unknown waste.” This is displayed through Figure 2‚ where the retention rate is 1.275 minutes and its peak signal is 1.4 mV. The range for methanol due to its similar voltage and retention time‚ when comparing Figure 2a and 2b. Because these chemical mixtures

Balance Lab of a Copper Slug and Sodium Chloride (NaCl) on a Centigram and Electronic Scale PURPOSE/INTRODUCTION The purpose of this experiment is to learn how to weigh a substance on a centigram scale and an electronic scale through direct weight or by weight difference. The hypothesis is that all scales used should show the same weight for a given sample. The experiment should show precision and accuracy of the equipment being used. This will allow a better understanding on how to properly

Biochemistry is the chemistry of biological systems. The practical component of biochemistry is aimed at developing your interest in and understanding modern biochemical and molecular biological experimentation. The techniques learnt in the biochemistry lab will be applicable to all life sciences. THE OBJECTIVES OF THE BIOCHEMISTRY LABORATORY INCLUDE: (1) Learning the theory behind the techniques and biochemical pathways (2) Learning the physical skills and techniques of modern experimental biochemistry

Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to identify the presence of cations and anions in four unknown solutions by identifying whether they are copper‚ silver‚ iron‚ or chloride ions which is done by adding sodium hydroxide‚ solid copper‚ silver nitrate‚ and potassium thiocyanate to the solutions and analyzing the chemical reactions. Introduction: Chemical change‚ unlike physical change is the change in the composition of a substance rather than simply its shape‚ size‚ or state (Marie‚ 2015). Signs

Discussion The purpose of the Density Lab was to determine the identity of four unknown solids and two unknown liquids by calculating their densities and comparing them to a density chart‚ taking into account error analysis and finally classifying the substances. In order to calculate this density‚ we first found the mass of the container that was to be holding the substances. We then found the volume of the substance‚ and lastly determined the mass of the container and substance. We subtracted

soil from the site and then take several other samples from different points on the site. This ensures variety of soil to ensure that all the site is safe‚ not just a small area where you would have taken your first sample from. I will return to the lab with the samples of soil I have extracted from the site. Here I will make a solution from the samples in order to carry out the identification tests. In order to turn my soil samples

Lab Report: Scientific Method Your Name: Alyssa Melincoff Purpose of this Lab What is the goal of this lab? What question is it trying to answer‚ or what problem is it trying to explain? To find out how table salt affects the boiling temperature of water. Hypothesis After reading the lab instructions - but before starting the lab - record your best “educated guess” about what will happen in the experiment. What hypothesis can you generate about the effect of adding salt to water? Adding

EXPERIMENT 4B: THE MENDELEEV LAB OF 1869 Materials: 30 element cards‚ periodic table Aim: How can we identify elements based on their propeties? Background: Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev is generally credited as being the first chemist to observe patterns emerge when the elements are arranged according to their properties. Mendeleev’s arrangement of the elements was unique because he left blank spaces for elements that he claimed were undiscovered as of 1869. Mendeleev was so confident
