Aim: To Find and test the Iron content in different food sources INTRODUCTION: A Redox titration was used in order to perform this experiment. Reduction/oxidation (redox) process occurs when electrons are transferred from a donor species (the reducing agent) to another acceptor species (the oxidizing agent). It happens between an analyte and a titrant. A redox titration is done just as a normal titration is done‚ however instead of titrating an acid against a base‚ an oxidizing agent is titrated

Brooke Thomas September 13‚ 2012 Separating Salt and Sand Lab Report Separating components of a mixture of salt and sand and calculate the mass of each. Salt is soluble and sand will sink to the bottom‚ you can separate the rest with filtering and distillation (boiling). If salt and sand are a mixture‚ then we can separate them by physical processes. Materials Ring with ring stand Funnel Wire triangle Stirring rod Filtering paper Beakers (400mL and 250mL) Rinse bottle Evaporation

In this lab‚ we used Bunsen burners to heat up a hydrated salt in order to determine the percentage of water inside of this hydrated salt. We heated up the salt in order to boil off the water‚ which allowed us to find the weight of the CuSO4 by itself. By comparing this final weight with the original weight and subtracting the difference‚ we were able to compile data about how much the weight of the hydrated salt decreased as the water gradually boiled away. In doing so‚ we were able to find the

In our lab‚ we were given the task of burning seven different salts and taking notes of what we observed. The different salts included Potassium chloride‚ Calcium chloride‚ Strontium chloride‚ Lithium chloride‚ Copper II chloride‚ Sodium Chloride‚ and Barium Chloride. Burning a pinch of each salt separately by holding a nichrome wire over a Bunsen burner‚ we found that each salt emitted a different color of light. For example‚ Potassium Chloride burnt a bright pink flame when burned‚ while Calcium

Aim: The aim of this experiment was to develop a technique to separate a mixture of sand‚ salt‚ iron filings‚ kerosene and water. Hypothesis: It was hypothesized that the heterogeneous mixture of salt‚ sand kerosene‚ iron fillings and water will be effectively separated. It is also predicted that there will be a decrease in each of the substances as a results of sources of error. Risk assessment: Risk | Control Measure | Glass- Fragile‚ lacerations could occur | Extra care

The litmus paper and the pH probe determined the salt solutions’ pH levels. When the blue litmus paper was dipped into ammonium chloride‚ the paper was changed to red whereas the red litmus paper stayed the same indicating that the solution was acidic. PH levels shown through pH probe also ranged between 5.5 to 6.0. Yet when in the presence of sodium acetate blue litmus stayed blue whereas red litmus turned blue‚ indicating its basicity. pH probe also showed the solution’s pH varied between the

Epsom salt have many uses‚ including use as bath salts‚ as a laxative and as a plant nutrient. Epsom salt contains hydrated magnesium sulphate which has the formula MgSO4.xH2O. Experiment to find the value of x in a pure sample of hydrated magnesium sulphate. The method i will use is heating a known mass of magnesium sulphate to remove the water of crystallisation. x is found by weighing before and after heating to find the mass of the water then using the moles calculations to find x.

Procedure: Day 1: Buffer preparation First‚ the buffer was prepared by using the formula as follows: Figure 1: Calculation for prepare 0.5 M Tris buffer at pH 6.8 3.033 g of Tris was weighed and placed in 400 mL beaker. Then‚ 25 mL of distilled water was added into the beaker that contained Tris. The mixture was dissolved using the stirring rod‚ and then the magnetic stirring bar was placed in the beaker for further dissolve when measuring the pH. The pH meter was used to measure the solution
