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

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.

Separation Challenge Problem: Salt‚ sand‚ wood chips‚ iron filings Materials Needed: a magnet‚ water‚ a pot‚ clean flat surfaces‚ a burner‚ filter paper‚ a stirrer‚ and four beakers for each item in the mixture Plan Brainstorm: Separate the items one by one using their different properties. Final Plan: To separate sand‚ salt‚ wood chips and iron filings First‚ use a magnet to remove the iron. Since some sand/salt will get caught with the iron filings‚ you may have to spread out the separated

Salt River Labs Q- What is the major problem at SRL? Who are the people involved and how do they contribute to the problem? 1. There are many problems that are apparent at Salt River Labs. The first major problem is the purchasing process. There are way too many people involved in this process. The current process involves series of five different people‚ or groups of people. This starts with the Chemists who send requisitions to supervisors‚ who send the requisition to Suzie Martinez‚ who

LAB#: 20 SKILL: Planning and Designing OBSERVATIONS: A student is given a small beaker containing an unknown salt‚ x. The salt is crystalline‚ deliquescent and colorless. The student is asked to perform test and observation on the salt to determine the cation and anion present. HYPOTHESIS: Perhaps by using the flame test or reacting salt x with NaOH‚ or NH4OH the cation could be distinguished by observing the color changes or solubility while reacting salt x with H2SO4 or a mixture of copper

Lab one is designed to determine fifteen sediment samples average grain size‚ sorting by size and mineralogy‚ rounding‚ sphericity‚ and Quartz/Feldspar/Lithic content as well as minerals present in each sample. In order to view the sample a stereoscope and light source is required. On the base of the stereoscope there is an insert that can either be black on one side and white when flipped to the other side. This insert can make viewing light or dark color samples easier due to the inserts backdrop
