    uniquely identifying molar mass as well as individual properties. In this lab, the purpose was to use the properties that three unknown alkali metal carbonate powers have, to identify the molar mass. For the three unknown substances, they all were white powders of about the same texture, and they all reacted when added to hydrochloric acid. Based on these properties, it is impossible to distinguish which one is which due to the similarities, so it is necessary to solve for the molar mass since that is unique

    experiment was to find the molar mass of the butane using the gas produced by the lighter. The lighter produces the butane gas and the volume of gas released and the mass change of the lighter are used to calculate the mole and the molar mass of the butane. To calculate the molar mass, the Ideal gas law, PV=nRT is used. The theoretical value of the C4H10 is 58.12g/mol. However, the experimental value that I could get from the calculation was 51.46g/mol for the molar mass of butane. This indicates

    Claim: Electrons with higher energy will be positioned further away from the nucleus than electrons with lower energy. Evidence and Analysis: In this lab, eight solutions were tested to show how the energy of light given off by an atom describes the location of an electron in the atom. When certain solutions were placed in the flame from a bunsen burner, the flame turned different colours. Lithium made the flame change to a violet/teal colour, barium and copper made the flame become green, and

  • Molar Mass Of Benzoic Acid Lab Report

    As mentioned earlier, the molar mass of benzaldehyde is 106.121g/mol, and the molar mass of benzoic acid is 122.12g/mol. With that in mind, to calculate the maximum possible mass of benzoic acid, which is the product of the experiment, Equation #2 must be used. Referencing from Table 1.1, the observed benzaldehyde mass is 5.02g, thus the plugging that into Equation #2, the calculation would be, (122.12 g⁄mol C_7 H_6 O_2)/(106.121 g⁄mol C_7 H_6 O)×5.02g, equaling to, 5.78g±0.01g of benzoic acid.

    It justifies the idea that increasing the concentration of sucrose does in fact speed up the rate of osmosis, an therefore increase the mass of the Visking tube. This happens due to the water molecules moving from a high water concentration to a low water concentration. Another reason why this hypothesis is correct is because sucrose particles are too large to go through the membrane therefore

    The central purpose of this experiment was to determine the experimental empirical formula of an oxide of magnesium by performing a synthesis reaction. It was hypothesized that the formula that was derived from the recorded data would be identical to the theoretical empirical formula. After performing calculations with the data that had been collected within the duration of the experiment, it was deduced that the empirical formula of the product generated by the synthesis reaction was Mg5O6.
