10/19/2011 Akruti Patel Lab Report #4: Determination of a chemical formula: the empirical formula of Magnesium Oxide 1. Purpose: Determine the empirical formula of magnesium oxide from the percent composition (this can found using the Analytical Method and the Synthesis Method). 2. Introduction: In the late eighteenth century‚ combustion has been studied extensively. In fact‚ according to Steven and Susan Zumdahl‚ Antoine Lavoisier‚ a French Chemist‚ performed thousands of combustion experiments

CHEM 1105 Experiment 4: Determination of a Chemical Formula Introduction When atoms of one element combine with those of another‚ the combining ratio is typically an integer or a simple fraction. The simplest formula of a compound expresses that atom ratio. When two or more elements are present in a compound‚ the formula still indicates the atom ratio. To find the formula of a compound we need to find the mass of each of the elements in a weighed sample of that compound. For example‚

Computer The Determination of a Chemical Formula 1 Second‚ you will conduct a chemical reaction with the dried sample‚ which will produce elemental copper. By measuring the mass of copper that forms‚ you will have the necessary information to determine the moles of copper and chlorine in your sample‚ and you will be able to establish the proper chemical formula. OBJECTIVES • • • In this experiment‚ you will Ev al Determine the water of hydration in a copper chloride hydrate

FORMAL LAB REPORT INTRODUCTION John Dalton’s atomic theory states that elements combine in simple numerical ratios to form compounds. A compound‚ no matter how it is formed‚ always contains the same elements in the same proportion by weight. The law of mass conservation states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed. In this experiment‚ the mass of the metal was not destroyed or created; the metal’s mass was simply changed into a compound form once the gas

* Chemical Formulas and Reactions . . . Midterm Objectives: * To balance chemical equations. * To interpret chemical reactions. * To understand equilibrium reactions and the factors that can affect them. * Molecular Mass / Formula Mass * Is the sum of the atomic masses of all the atoms present in one molecule of that compound. Example: the molecular mass of sodium bromide‚ NaBr‚ is 103‚ which represents the sum of the atomic mass of sodium (23) plus that of bromide (80)

Title of the Experiment: determination of densities Introduction The density of a sample of matter represents the mass contained within a unit volume of space in the sample. For most samples‚ a unit volume means 1.0 ml. The units of density‚ therefore‚ are quoted in terms of grams per milliliter (g/ml) or grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm3) for most solid and liquid samples of matter. Density is often used as a point of identification in the determination of an unknown substance. The density

Naming Chemical Formulas Chemical Nomenclature There are over 19 million known chemical substances. Without some type of system‚ naming these substances would be hopelessly complicated. The system used in naming substances is called chemical nomenclature. There are two major divisions to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) system: inorganic nomenclature organic nomenclature Organic compounds contain carbon‚ usually in combination with hydrogen‚ oxygen‚ nitrogen
