    In the Types of Chemical Reactions lab one of the skills used is the skill of balancing equations. Chemical equations are the quantitative way of showing a reaction. In order to respect the law of conservation of mass which states that mass is neither created nor destroyed. In order to observe this law equations must be balanced using coefficients.…

    If [-OH] > [H+], basic pH scale = how acidic or basic a solution is – Ie: NaCl in H2O splits into Na+ and Cl– Needed in precise amounts for many processes, like muscle contraction and nerve impulses. pH Scale • In pure water only 1 water molecule in every 554 million is dissociated. – very small amount of ions – [H+] or [OH-] is 10-7M [H+] [OH-] = 10-14 • pH scale is based on this equation 6 9/22/2011 pH Scale • In neutral solution [H+] = 10-7 → pH = 7 • Values for pH decline as [H+] increases • Acids – adding acid increases [H+] • Bases – adding base increases [OH-] pH & Biology • pH of a neutral solution = 7 • Acidic solutions =…

    Chemical reactions are the basis of how all molecular compounds are formed. During the different types of chemical reactions the reactants chemically change, attach, or break off to form a whole new chemical identity as a product. There are five types of reactions: synthesis, decomposition, single replacement, double replacement, and combustion.…

    The objective of this experiment was to observe evidence of a reaction and to determine the chemical equation, if there is a reaction. In order for a reaction to occur, a metal strip must have evidence of black or grey deposits on the surface of the metal once dipped into the solution. The reactivity of an element is related to its tendency to lose or gain electrons. Three metal strips that were used are copper, lead and zinc as well as the solutions of silver nitrate, copper(II) nitrate, lead(II) nitrate, magnesium sulfate and dilute(3M) sulfuric acid. The copper metal strip was placed in the silver nitrate and dilute(3M) sulfuric acid, the lead metal strip was placed in the copper(II) nitrate and the zinc metal strip was placed in the lead(II) nitrate, magnesium sulfate and dilute(3M) sulfuric acid. Overall, putting these different strips of metal into different solutions will help determine the reactivity of copper, lead, zinc, magnesium, silver and hydrogen.…

    A chemical reaction is a change where two or more substances are changed into a new substance. You can identify a chemical reaction by colour change, effervescence (bubbles), when light or heat given off, and the change is usually irreversible. There are 6 main types of chemical reactions- combustion (often called burning), synthesis, decomposition, neutralization, single replacement and double replacement. A combustion reaction is a reaction with oxygen, and heat is evolved (given off). A common example of combustion is…

    Life is defined as a characteristic that distinguishes that have signaling and self sustaining processes from those that don’t. If an organism can perform certain functions such as movement, respiration, sensitivity, growth, reproduction, excretion, and nutrition, it is classified as a living organism. Life began from the basic building block of all living things, called cells. All organisms derived from single celled organisms. Cells are the basic building blocks of life and are found in all living things. For example, a group of cells would form a tissue, a group of tissues would form an organ, a group of organs would form an organ system an a group of organ systems would form an organism.…

    The generation of heat in a conductor is an inevitable consequence of electric current. In many cases, it is undesirable as it converts useful electrical energy into heat. In electric circuits, the unavoidable heating can increase the temperature of the components and alter their properties. However, heating effect of electric current has many useful applications. The electric laundry iron, electric toaster, electric oven, electric kettle and electric heater are some of the familiar devices based on Joule’s heating.…

    Electrical phenomena have been studied since antiquity, though advances in the science were not made until the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Practical applications for electricity however remained few, and it would not be until the late nineteenth century that engineers were able to put it to industrial and residential use. The rapid expansion in electrical technology at this time transformed industry and society. Electricity 's extraordinary versatility as a means of providing energy means it can be put to an almost limitless set of applications which include…
