Using Freezing-Point Depression to Find Molecular Weight Formal Lab Report Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to be able to use the freezing point of a substance to find the molecular weight of it. To do this‚ we will use the Logger Pro program to obtain the freezing point of lauric acid and a solution of benzoic acid and lauric acid. Then‚ we’ll go calculate the freezing point depression of the solution and the molecular weight of benzoic acid. Procedure Summary: Obtain lab goggles

College Preparatory Academy A mole is a scientific unit developed by chemist that measures large quantities of very small things‚ such as atoms‚ molecules‚ and other particles. There are three types of molar conversions; moles to particles or particles to moles‚ moles to mass or mass to moles‚ and moles to volume or volume to moles. The number of units in a mole is 6.02 × 1023. This number is called Avogadro’s number in honour of Amedeo Avogadro. Full name‚ Lorenzo Romano Amedeo Carlo Avogadro

Angela Pierre Chem 112 Lab Due: 03/05/2015 Lab Report 14 Questions 1. Part A.3. Some of the cyclohexane solvent vaporized during the temperature versus time measurement. Will this loss of cyclohexane result in its freezing point being recorded as too high‚ too low‚ or unaffected? Explain. -The freezing point will be higher because the loss of solvent means that the molarity of solute is too high. The melting point will be lower than expected. 5. Part B.2. The solute dissociates slightly in the

Molar Volume of a Gas – 10/27/08 Alic Albright‚ Josh Coleman‚ Dan Boden‚ Zach Babin Purpose: The pupose of this lab was to make an experimental determination of a molar volume through reaction of the substance shown: Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) > MgCl(aq) + H(g) Introduction: In this lab‚ a magnesium ribbon and HCl are combined in a gas measuring tube. When they are combined they form magnesium chloride and Hydrogen gas. The molar ratio between Mg reacted and

Title: 03.09 Molar Mass of Compounds: Determining the Formula of a Hydrate Purpose: To determine the formula of a hydrate. Materials: * crucible * Bunsen burner * balance * CuSO4 hydrate Procedure: 1. Measure the mass of the clean‚ empty crucible‚ record the mass. 2. Add one or two scoops of the hydrate to the crucible‚ record the mass. 3. Heat the crucible and hydrate above a Bunsen burner for at least ten minutes to make sure that all of the water evaporates

4/9/02 Effects of Salts on the Freezing Point of Water In this experiment‚ you will study the effect that several solutes have on the Freezing Point of water. When a solute is dissolved in a liquid‚ the temperature at which that liquid freezes decreases‚ because the molecules of the solute become attached to the water molecules‚ making it more difficult for the water to form its crystaline shape and form into ice. This process is called Freezing Point Depression. In this experiment‚ you will

Practical 6 -Determining the Gas Constant Aim: To verify the gas constant as 8.31 J/mol/K ( ) and to calculate the molar mass of butane. Theory: The ideal gas law‚ PV=nRT‚ is used to model an ideal gas‚ which is a gas with no intermolecular forces other than those of collisions‚ perfectly spherical and elastic particles. Although an ideal gas is a theoretical model and so cannot exist in practice‚ most gases behave fairly similarly to an ideal gas. Gases behave more like an ideal gas when they are

Introduction Molar volume is the name given to the volume that one mole of any gas occupies at standard temperature and pressure. In chemistry‚ many of the materials worked with are gases. It is often easier to measure the volume of a sample of gas‚ rather than determine its mass. The main purpose of this lab is to determine the molar volume of hydrogen gas experimentally in order to compare it to the theoretical molar volume of ideal gases. In this experiment‚ a known mass of magnesium is reacted
