Acid in the human stomach When people refer to acid they usually see it as a corrosive liquid that can dissolve metals or change the color of a substance. So they think of acid as a dangerous matter for the body and believe it can easily dissolve your skin. What I have previously listed are indeed properties of certain acids‚ such as Hydrofluoric Acid which can cause irreversible tissue damage if it comes in contact with skin‚ but not all acids are this strong. As a matter of fact what a lot of

2011 Chemistry I‚ Pd 11‚ Station K Evidence of Chemical Change Purpose To observe several chemical changes (reactions) and the evidence they exhibit for chemical change. Data See page 3 Analysis The two terms that describe possible energy change in a chemical reaction are Exothermic‚ for example when a gas is formed when Copper II Chloride and Aluminum are mixed‚ and Endothermic‚ for example when copper II Hydroxide is heated. There are many substances used in this experiment

Introduction The reaction between zinc and copper (II) sulphate is endothermic. If an excess of zinc powder is added to a measured amount of aqueous copper (II) sulphate in a calorimeter and the temperature change is recorded over a period of time‚ the enthalpy change of the reaction can be experimentally determined. Assumption 1. Mass of H2O in 100cm3 of CuSO4 solution is 100g 2. Specific heat of solution is 4.18 kJ kg-1 K-1 which is the same as the specific heat of water 3. Heat evolved

Enthalpy‚ represented by the sign ∆H in kJ/mol‚ is the heat change in a reaction. It shows whether how much heat is released or absorbed during the reaction. If the reaction is endothermic‚ the enthalpy would be positive and if the reaction is exothermic‚ the enthalpy would be negative. During a chemical reaction‚ which consists of breaking and creating bonds‚ heat is either absorbed or released. In this lab‚ the reaction uses the disassociation of an ionic compound ammonium nitrate shown in the

Calcium Hydroxide GOAL AND OVERVIEW A saturated solution of Ca(OH)2 will be made by reacting calcium metal with water‚ then filtering off the solids: Ca(s) + H2O → Ca(OH)2(s) Ca2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) The concentration of dissolved hydroxide will be determined by acid-base titration with standardized HCl solution. The Ksp for Ca(OH)2 will be calculated from the experimentally determined saturation concentration of hydroxide. Objectives of the data analysis understand solubility equilibria‚ acid-base neutralization

Reactions in Aqueous Solutions: Metathesis Reactions and Net Ionic Equations Introduction: Metathesis or double decomposition reactions are a reaction in which two compounds react to form two new compounds‚ with no changes in oxidation number. The ions of two compounds exchange partners. AX + BY AY + BX This reaction can occur between two inorganic salts when one product is insoluble in water‚ driving the reaction forward. A typical example is as followed and is considered a molecular equation

Investigating The Rate Of Reaction Between Marble Chips And Hydrochloric Acid Planning I will use marble chips and different concentrations of hydrochloric acid and water to see how it affects the rate of reaction. I will use concentrations of 50cm3 using different volumes of water and acid. Introduction I am investigating how the rate of reaction between marble chips and hydrochloric acid is altered when the concentration is changed. This is the word equation for my investigation

the Enthalpy of a Chemical Reaction All chemical reactions involve an exchange of heat energy; therefore‚ it is tempting to plan to follow a reaction by measuring the enthalpy change (∆H). However‚ it is often not possible to directly measure the heat energy change of the reactants and products (the system). We can measure the heat change that occurs in the surroundings by monitoring temperature changes. If we conduct a reaction between two substances in aqueous solution‚ then the enthalpy of

Thermodynamics – Enthalpy of Reaction and Hess’s Law I. Purpose The purpose of this lab is to verify Hess’s Law through the three reactions of NaOH and HCl‚ NH4Cl and NaOH‚ and NH3 and HCl. The sum of the enthalpies of the first two reactions should equal the enthalpy of the third reaction. II. Background Hess’s Law is used to determine the enthalpy of a reaction from adding two or more preceding reactions. To determine the enthalpies of certain chemical reactions‚ the change in must

with Sodium Salts of Carbonic Acid Introduction- This experiment is intended to help find a better understanding of chemical stoichiometry through titrations of NaHCO3 and NA2CO3 with HCl. A chemical reaction is a process that involves rearrangement of the molecular or ionic structure of a substance‚ as opposed to a change in physical form in a nuclear reaction. Titration is when a measured amount of solution of unknown volume is added to a known volume of a second solution until the reaction between
