RESEARCH QUESTIONWhat is the number of moles of water of crystallization associated with one mole of copper (II) sulfate‚ in the hydrate CuSO4 * xH2O (s)? The independent variable in this experiment is sample thermal treatment ( heating and cooling) and the dependent variable is the number of moles of water of crystallization. A number of other variables can affect the final result of the

Experiment 9/5 Voltaic cells AIM How the change the concentration of the electrolyte CuSo4 (solution of ions) affect the voltage of the electrochemical cell BACKGROUND An electrochemical cell is also called a voltaic cell‚ which derives electrical energy from redox reaction taking place within the cell. It consists of two different metals that are connected by a salt bridge. Eletrons always flow from anode to cathode‚ where anode is negative (reduction) and cathode is positive (oxidation)

TITLE : The copper cycle IN TRODUCTION The purpose of the experiment is to recognize that change of state‚ change in colour‚ formation of a precipitate‚ or the evolution of heat are associated with a chemical change; to study reactions of copper. Copper is an element that can be found in nature in a variety of different compounds. The most common natural ore is the sulphide‚ known as chalcocite‚ Cu2S. This mineral is an important source of copper metal because it is about 80% copper by

One was electrochemistry using a Daniel cell and the other one was spectrometry by estimating concentration of complex solution using a calibration curve. The formation constant of cupric ammine complex Cu(NH3)42+‚ Kf‚ came out with 1.93x10^15 using electrochemical cell method and 9.79x10^12 using spectrophotometer method. Considering the literature value of Kf is around 4.8x10^12 ~ 1.7x10^13‚ spectrophotometer gives more accurate result than electrochemical

The enthalpy and entropy changes of a system undergoing such processes are interrelated by the change in free energy‚ ªG‚ according to the equation ªG = ªH - T ªS (1) This investigation focuses on the reaction Zn(S ) + CuSO4(aq) Y ZnSO4(aq) + Cu(S ) (2) ªG will be calculated from the ªH and ªS values obtained electrochemically. The validity of Equation (1) will be tested by comparing the value of ªH obtained electrochemically with the value of ªH obtained calorimetrically
