Analysis Of The Seven Numbered Solutions Through Chemical Reactions Lab Report

The objective of the Unknown White Compound experiment was to investigate the compound’s physical and chemical properties to correctly identify and then synthesize the compound. The first step was to test the compounds solubility and create a solution with distilled water. Next, a pH test was conducted by testing the unknown compound using pH paper. Following, the flame test was used to determine the cation and the ion test was used to determine the anion, which concluded the compound to mostly be potassium nitrate. Next, a conductivity probe and pH probe were used to confirm the unknown compound to be potassium nitrate. The final step was to synthesize potassium nitrate using silver nitrate and potassium chloride. The experiments listed above concluded the unknown white compound to be potassium nitrate.

If I had a household product labeled sodium bicarbonate, I would add an acidic substance and expect bubble to be created. As we know acid reacts with bubbles when combined with sodium bicarbonate.

As seen in table 1, the theoretical yield was .712 g of C_17 H_19 NO_3. The % yield of this experiment was 7.51 % of C_17 H_19 NO_3. . This low yield can be explained from a poor recrystallization technique combined with potential contamination. Throughout the experiment, the mixture changed color from green, orange, to yellowish lime, and eventually clear. These color changes indicate a chemical change, which show that a reaction had occurred. In the first step when o-vanillin and p-toludine, imine was formed. The color change from green to orange suggests that imine appears as orange colored. In the second step, the addition of sodium borohydride reduced the imine into another derivative, which was yellowish lime color. The solution turned clear when acids and anhydrides was added, which indicated the precipitate were dissolved. However, after refluxing for a while, yellow precipitates begin to form near the top of the flask. It was assumed that the remaining starting material was concentrated from a decrease volume to reappeared in solution. Nevertheless, this may have been a sign of contamination that will negatively affect the entire reaction. This observation later resulted in a yellowish

Throughout the experiment, copper was altered a total of 5 times, but after the final chemical reaction, solid, elemental copper returned. Each time the solution changed color, a precipitate formed, or when gas appeared, indicated that a chemical reaction was occurring. For the first reaction, copper was added to nitric acid, forming the aqueous copper (II) nitrate (where the copper went), along with liquid water, and

The purpose of this experiment was to identify given Unknown White Compound by conducting various test and learning how to use lab techniques. Tests that are used during this experiment were a flame test, ion test, pH test, and conductivity test. The results drawn from these tests confirmed the identity of the Unknown White Compound to be sodium acetate (NaC2H3O2) because there were no presence of ions and sodium has a strong persistent orange color. The compound then will be synthesized with the compounds Na2CO3 and HC2H3O2 to find percent yield. Weighed 1 gram of NaC2H3O2 and mixed it with ionized water. Boiled 12 mL of 1.0M Acetic Acid added into a beaker containing the sodium carbonate on a hot plate until all the liquid is evaporated

The objective of this experiment was to identify an unknown compound through quantitative and qualitative analysis. In order to find the identity of the unknown compound, an initial qualitative test for solubility was performed. To begin, the solubility of the unknown compound in water was tested. If the compound is soluble in water, it can be inferred that it is either a polar covalent or ionic compound.

When the two solutions, sodium chloride (NaCl) and silver nitrate (AgNO3) react, a soluble sodium nitrate (NaNO3) and a precipitate silver chloride (AgCl) form. While this reaction is not a common occurrence for most of us in our daily life and work, it is in a forensic science lab. This chemical reaction is just one of the many techniques used to unveil fingerprints in a crime scene. Unfortunately, fingerprints are not always left or able to be found. In that case, new chemical procedures must take place.

When the students placed the wire containing the sample in the flame it burned a orange/ red color. when this result was compared with the previous flame tests it could have resulted from either CaCl2 or NaCl. Both of these compounds produced an orange flame. After the flame test was conducted, the students performed a litmus test to identify whether the unknown was neutral or a base. When exposed to the red and blue litmus paper, no reaction occurred. each paper remained it's original color, thus concluding that the unknown was neutral. These results also led the students to believe the unknown was CaCl2 since it was listed in the neutral column. After the litmus test was conducted the students added a few drops of Na3PO4 to the unknown. When these two were combined a precipitate was formed. This final test on unknown F verified that it was CaCl2. If it was NaCl there would have been no precipitate formed during this final

In Station 1- reaction 2, Station 3- reaction 1, Station 4-reaction 1, Station 5 reaction 1, Station 6-reaction 1 and 2, and Station 7- 1 and 2 there was chemical reaction because all of those mixed ionic compounds created a precipitate. However some solutions did not become insoluble and produce precipitates such as: Station 1- BaCl2 (aq) + KNO3 (aq) , Station 2- KNO3(aq) + AgNO3(aq) and KNO3(aq) + CaSO4(aq), Station 3- Na2CO3(aq) + KNO3(aq) , Station 4- NaPO4(aq) + KNO3(aq), and Station 5- 2Na3PO4(aq) + KNO3(aq). The lab demonstrated the Solubility Rules when the equations that included Nitrates and Group 1 salts resulted in soluble compounds, and the ionic compounds that included Carbonates, Phosphates, Hydroxides,

In the lab, the theoretical yield of CO2 was calculated by using the mass of the Alka-Seltzer (in Part A) and the mass of the anti-acid (Part B) were multiplied by the mole ratios that were involved in the reaction equation for each reaction and they were also divided by the molar mass of each substance. From the balanced chemical equations that were included in the calculation portion, the limiting reactant in part A was determined to be citric acid. The limiting reactant in part B was determined to be HCl because in the reaction, the HCl would ran out before the calcium carbonate. The stoichiometry would not have been different when converting between the different states of matter because the state is a measure of kinetic energy, and not

The guiding question of this ADI lab was, “Which balanced equation best represents the thermal decomposition of sodium bicarbonate?” The goal of this lab was to use our knowledge of stoichiometry with the mole ratio to identify the correct chemical equation for the decomposition of sodium bicarbonate. Information that was given going into this investigation was the definition of the law of conservation of mass and the atomic theory which states that no atoms can be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction. Also the mole ratio which is used to determine how much of a product will be produced in a chemical reaction using the given chemical equation. To conduct the lab, information regarding

In the Bubbles experiments, the gas carbon dioxide will be blown into the water. When carbon dioxide is blown into water, it dissolves within the water to form carbonic acid. In this lab

After that, we take 0.80 g sodium carbonate and mix with 25 ml of distilled water to make a solution of sodium carbonate. The two solutions are mixed together in the 100 ml beaker, forming a milky white precipitate. The solution is

(The carbon dioxide comes from the lungs during exhalation. Carbonic acid is a weak acid and is therefore in equilibrium with bicarbonate in solution. When sig- nificant amounts of both carbonic acid and bicarbonate are present, a buffer is formed, because they neutralize each other.)

It is produced also by the reaction of ammonium nitrate and sodium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate or sodium carbonate.
