INVESTIGATION #2 DETERMINATION OF THE WATER OF CRYSTALLISATION April 4‚ 2012 OBJECTIVE: Chemical compounds that contain discrete water molecules as part of their crystalline structure are called hydrates. Hydrates occur quite commonly among chemical substances‚ especially among ionic substances. More often than not‚ such compounds are either prepared in‚ or are recrystallized from‚ aqueous solutions. Hydrates exist for ionic compounds most commonly‚ but hydrates of polar and non polar covalent molecules

Determination of Water in a Hydrate DESIGN – Aspect 1: Defining the problem & selecting variables Research Question: What percentage of Copper Sulfate Hydrate is water? Background Information: There are many ionic compounds that contain one or more waters of hydration in their formulae. They exists either in anhydrous or hydrated form. Most anhydrous compounds have a strong tendency to absorb water from the humidity in the atmosphere and shifts into a hydrated form. Because of

Bohnenberger Professor Van Doorn ENVS 150-002 2 March 2015 Water Quality Lab Report Introduction: When people are asked about how water is characterized‚ they usually will think of saltwater‚ freshwater‚ safe-to-drink freshwater‚ and tap water. Only a few people understand that water and its quality are characterized in several other ways beyond salt‚ fresh‚ and tap water. In 1967‚ the Water Quality Act‚ which was an amendment of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act‚ was passed. The Act required

Water Quality and Contamination Melody McBride SCI-207 Dependence of man on the environment Robin Glenn September 28‚ 2014 Abstract The lab was conducted at the McBride residence. For this experiment vegetable oil‚ vinegar and liquid detergent was use to contaminate the water. Testing of how ground water is affected by different contaminants was the bases of the experiment. The results were interesting in that when vinegar is filtered through dirt it came out fairly clean‚ it also

The intention of the “Foul Water” lab was to purify a sample of sewage water and conserve as much as possible. The water should be clean enough to wash your hands with. My hypothesis is that the water will be cleaner than the initial water sample‚ but not to the standard that I would wash my hands with. Significant terms to know include purification‚ filtration‚ adsorption‚ volume‚ clarity‚ dissolved‚ filtrate‚ impurities‚ pipette‚ clay triangle‚ funnel cone‚ iron ring‚ beaker‚ and Erlenmeyer flask

Neutralization Titrations: The Determination of Sodium Carbonate from Unknown Soda Ash Unknown # I. Purpose: The goal of this experiment is to determine the weight % of Na2CO3 through the preparation of NaOH and HCl standards. The molarity of the standards will be found through titration of KHP for NaOH‚ HCl vs the known NaOH‚ and the unknown Soda Ash sample vs the known HCl. II. Equations and Sample Calculations: Titration of HCl with NaOH: Complete Equation: HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq)

purpose of this lab was to practice measuring the mass and volume of different samples and to calculate the density and specific gravity of those samples using the measurements. B. Equipment 1. Electronic balance- The electronic balance is a device used to measure the exact mass of an object 2. Graduated cylinder- The graduated cylinder is a tool used to measure the volume of a liquid 3. Pipets- Pipets are small tubes that suck up and contain liquids C. Technique 1. The water displacement technique

Steel Wool Scissors Ruler Lemon Juice Orange Juice Vinegar Distilled Water Four Small Bowls Thin Towel Tall plastic cup Graph Paper Procedure: Before beginning your experiment‚ make sure that the distilled water has been opened and exposed to the air for at least a few hours. This will allow it to absorb some carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and lower its pH from a level of about 7 to about 5.8. The distilled water will act as a model for "normal" rainwater‚ which has a pH of about

We will also be practicing how to prepare the solution. Using the titration data‚ we can practice our stoichiometric skills and also become more familiar with using lab equipment. Titration is the process of measuring the exact volume of a solution of known concentration that is
