Timothy Johns Christian Howard Wan Huang 10/18/12 Flame Test Lab Introduction Spectroscopy is the study of the electromagnetic radiation emitted or absorbed by atoms and molecules. These studies are very helpful in determining an unknown element‚ given the fact that all elements burn a different color. The flame colors vary because of the different amounts of energy the elements give off. This lab is made for the learner to determine the identity of two unknown elements. Hypothesis If

electrolysis is carried out then write balanced half reactions and compare to observations. Part A/B- Aquire a U-tube with flexible tubing at bottom‚ and close tightly with a clamp to add different cells before mixing. Prepare metal strips of lead‚ copper‚ zinc‚ and iron as electrodes by cleaning them with steel wool. Fill each side of you tube with proper cell and electrode for each test and record cell potential with a voltmeter. Part C – Use an all glass U tube and various cell solutions to be

comparing the density of Zn(zinc) and Cu(copper)‚ you will find that Copper is more dense than Zinc. You can test this out by using the density formula D=m/v. Materials: * 2 metals (options: zn‚ al‚ or cu) * 3 samples of each metal (small‚ medium‚ and large) * Scale/Balance * Calculator * Water * Graduated Cylinder Safety: * Be prepared for your work in the laboratory. * Read all procedures thoroughly before entering the lab and/or starting experiment. * Be alert

Reactions Drew Selfridge Dave Allen‚ Lab partner Instructor Yang February 11‚ 1997 INTRODUCTION This experiment was to recover the most amount of copper after it is subjected to a sequence of reactions. The copper is originally in solid form‚ but the reactions will turn it into free Cu+2 ions floating in solution. The ions will then be regrouped to form solid copper once again. During this process‚ however‚ some of the Cu+2 ions may be lost. The copper will subjected to changes in pH and heat

2010 STATE OF THE WORLD: TRANSFORMING CULTURES FROM CONSUMERISM TO SUSTAINABILITY Student Name: Pilate Songsi | ID Number: U26884SEL35386 | Consumerism can be defined as the “buying and using of goods and services; the belief that it is good for a society or an individual person to buy and use a large quantity of goods and services” (Oxford advanced learners dictionary). Most of the environmental and social problems the world faces today can be considered as symptoms of a deeper general

The purpose of lab number thirteen was to examine the response of the daphnia to a chemical stimulant. Also examined was how human resting heart rates differed from the daphnia’s. Stimulants are any substances that raise the levels of activity in the body. Stimulants could be a number of things such as physical or chemical. Physical stimulus usually deal with something that affects the five senses such as sight‚ hearing these could be attributed to loud noises or too much light going into your eye
