Maria Reyes iLab‚ Week #3 ATOMIC WEIGHT OF MAGNESIUM LAB Introduction The purpose of this lab was to determine the atomic weight of magnesium by measuring the amount of hydrogen gas evolved when hydrochloric acid reacted with magnesium. In order to measure the atomic weight I needed to measure the amount of the hydrogen gas that was evolved in reaction to the acid of the magnesium. The reaction used was: Mg + 2HCl --> H2 + Mg2+ (aq) + 2Cl- (aq). The major findings of this experiment were that

Honors Chemistry Period 2 September 22‚ 2013 PRE-LAB Title: Density of Metals – Shot Lab Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to find out the density of different metals using their mass and volume. If the volume and mass for the metals Nickel and Copper are found‚ then we can figure out the density. Materials: Metal shot Plastic rinse bin Electric Balances Calculator Graduated Cylinders Water Wire Gauze Weigh Boats Pre-lab Questions: 1) The volume of the water is 43.0 mL

They are usually made of glass or plastic‚ and while most are scored for measurement‚ some can measure changes digitally. The single-tube manometer measures only the pressure of a liquid‚ since there is no alternate place to compare gases. A U-shaped manometer essentially pits two different gas pressures against one another‚ and measures the strength of the captured gas. The free-flowing gas is usually air at the

Conclusion The purpose of this experiment was to discover the chemical properties that copper has when reacting with other chemicals and how it changes physically during these processes. (Department of Chemistry‚ 2013) This was achieved through many types of reactions‚ such as a redox reaction‚ double displacement‚ decomposition reaction and single displacement depending on the chemical properties in relation to copper of the other substances when it was added with copper. Copper was either in an

CHEM 1211 L Principles of Chemistry Lab 16 February 2004 Lab Report 1 Introduction The purpose of this project is to identify an unknown organic acid (X) by conducting various experiments to determine the acid’s unique properties. By determining selected constant properties of the unknown and then comparing these properties to the constant properties of known substances‚ it is possible to identify an unknown substance. The properties used to identify the unknown must be intensive‚ or independent

Lab for Chemistry 221 Lab: How much sugar is in a Can of Coke? Abstract: A 50mL (we used 100mL) volumetric flask was used to determine the amount of sugar in a can of Coke per mL in 5 different solutions. Using the calibration curve we determine the amount of sugar per mL in a can of coke. This experiment concluded that there is 43.83g of sugar in a 12oz can of Coke. Introduction: This experiment was conducted to determine the amount of sugar in a can of Coke and to and use a calibration
