How Much Gas CHM 151 LL Wednesday: 11:15-2:00 Instructor: Dr. Leary May 1‚ 2013 Introduction In this project we will choose a solid reagent‚ Mg‚ CaCO3‚ or Na2CO3‚ to react with a hydrochloric acid solution‚ HCl. We are going to measure the amount of gaseous product obtained from the amount of gaseous product obtained from reaction. Then compare to theoretical yield‚ Percent Yield=Actual Yield of Gas/ Theoretical Yield of Gas×100‚ based on stoichiometric prediction. The Ideal Gas Law‚ PV=nRT

embargo was skyrocketing energy prices as a result of limited supply and heavy demand. Rationing went into effect‚ with supplies of petroleum products being carefully doled out with ration cards and flag systems‚ in which people could take turns buying gas and other fuels on the basis of license plate numbers. At the same time‚ the stock market contracted radically‚ an event that foreshadowed future stock market instabilities linked to the price of oil. The 1970s was also an era in which environmentalism
