INTRODUCTION For this experiment we studied an oxidation-reduction reaction of magnesium and hydrochloric acid solution. We compared the experimental measured amount of a product and the amount predicted by the theoretical calculation of a balanced equation: Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) → MgCl2 (aq) + H2 (g) PROCEDURE First we obtained a strip of pre-cut magnesium ribbon‚ cleaned it with steel wool to remove any signs of oxidation from the strip (which would alter our results)‚ and then weighed it (individual

Examples of synthesis reactions: 1. Metal + oxygen → metal oxide EX. 2Mg(s) + O2(g) → 2MgO(s) 2. Nonmetal + oxygen → nonmetallic oxide EX. C(s) + O2(g) → CO2(g) 3. Metal oxide + water → metallic hydroxide EX. MgO(s) + H2O(l) → Mg(OH)2(s) 4. Nonmetallic oxide + water → acid EX. CO2(g) + H2O(l) → ; H2CO3(aq) 5. Metal + nonmetal → salt EX. 2 Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2NaCl(s) 6. A few nonmetals combine with each other. EX. 2P(s) + 3Cl2(g) →

three reactions that occurred in the test tubes where you combined potassium iodide‚ KI‚ and hydrogen peroxide‚ H2O2 (in part 1) of the experiment? (Give a detailed explanation of any observations that you made‚ i.e.‚ what made the colour change‚ what reactions happened?) ANSWER: 2. Use the information below to develop the necessary calculations for the rate of reaction from the solutions in part B of the experiment • Calculate the initial molarity
Premium Chemistry Experiment Chemical reaction
A double displacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which two compounds react in order to create two new chemicals. The two cations and anions switch places with each other which forms two new compounds. As an example AB+CC can switch to AD+CB. Both sides of these equations must balance out in order to be neutral. So any pairs of compounds (such as A+B) must have a total balanced charge. In this example A could have a charge of positive 2 (+2) and B could have a charge of negative

concentration can affect the initial rate of reaction. I will measure the effect of the enzyme in 5 different concentrations against the controlled variable of the reactant. The enzyme which will be used is different concentrations of potato and the reactant used will be Hydrogen Peroxide. Hydrogen Peroxide which will be the buffer solution is a PH of 7.2. My hypothesis for the experiment is that as the concentration of the enzyme is increased the rate of reaction will be increased‚ producing oxygen at

The purpose of this lab is to determine the rate of reaction under different circumstances. Different variables will be manipulated to discover their effects on a particular reaction. Changes in temperature‚ pH‚ and enzyme concentration are examples of factors that have the potential to affect the initial rate of an enzyme catalyzed reaction in a controlled experiment‚ whether it be speeding the reaction up or slowing it down. Part I of the experiment establishes a baseline that can be used to compare

Cations and Anions Reaction Introduction: This experiment seeks to explore different chemical reactions conducted in the lab. A cation is defined as positively charged ions‚ which are K+ and Pb2+ in this experiment‚ and an anion is termed as negatively charged ions‚ which are CrO4 2- and NO3 2-. The major objective of this lab experiment was to examine the reaction between cations and anions‚ as well as observing‚ and documenting the chemical reactions. We will be demonstrating the reaction between a solution
Premium Chemistry Chemical reaction Titration
The purpose of the lab was to find out the chemical elements based on the color of the flame that elements make by their reaction. The work we completed in the lab was testing the chemical effects of the flame from the chemicals. We tested different elements and wrote down our observations. I accomplished the knowledge of testing chemicals and making responses based on our observations.Electrons are the particles found in the chemicals that may be responsible for the production of colored light.

In this experiment‚ we used 1-chloro-1-phenylethane in acetone in one reaction with 50% ethanol-50% water and in another reaction with 40% ethanol-60% water. To monitor he rate of reaction‚ we would need the concentration of the alkyl chloride at the beginning of the reaction and at a time t‚ but since we did not determine the concentrations‚ we monitored the rate of formation of
