this lab). This help us view the study of Law of Conservation of Mass‚ when either side of equation is equally balanced. The calculation for formula mass helps determine if you need to convert grams to a particular substance to moles‚ from a product. Moles are numbers that are in front of formulae. E.g.‚ 6NaCl‚ 6 is the equation for this formula. A mole would help you balance a skeleton equation‚ and also allows you to calculate how many moles are needed to take part in a chemical reaction.

Acids‚ Bases‚ and Buffers Introduction: The pH scale is used to determine how acidic or basic a solution is‚ ranging from 1-14. The most acidic of all acids are at a pH level of 1 and the most basic of all bases are at 14. The neutral pH level is 7‚ which is what drinking water is. The pH level is determined by the amount of H+ ions present in a solution‚ and the more H+ ions there are the more acidic it is‚ and the lack of these ions results in more basic solutions. One distinguishing feature

Every element and compound has a distinctive melting and boiling point. When a substance reaches its melting and boiling point it will change phase. For example the molecules in a solid being heated gain energy and eventually are able to not only vibrate but

The experiment did not contain any form of reaction mechanism since no chemical identity had been changed. The lab demonstrates the use of chemical molecular behavior to isolate a particular set of molecules. Caffeine had already existed in the leaf itself but needed to be separated from the other chemicals. Caffeine’s chemical structure is relatively similar to the nucleic acid purine in that they use nitrogen and is bicyclic but lacks an alkene‚ amine and an amide. Caffeine has a solubility of

Preparation of Acetylsalicylic Acid Abstract Acetylsalicylic acid was prepared using salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. As a result‚ a white‚ powdery substance was formed (0.1931g‚ percent yield 91.30%) and was defined by melting point (124.5 – 134.5°C) and observation of color change with ferric chloride. Introduction Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) is one of the most popular analgesic drugs on the market today. It also acts as an antipyretic and anti-inflammatory drug. Salicylic acid itself

final compound which I am going to look at is 4-aminobenzenecarboxylic acid. The compound is also known as 4-Aminobenzoic acid. The molecular and structural formula of the compound is C7H7NO2 which means that the compound consists of seven carbon atoms attached to seven hydrogen atoms along with one nitrogen atom and two carbon atoms attached as a carbon-oxygen double bond. The displayed formula for the 4-aminobenzenecarboxylic acid compound is shown and it shows the formula in a ring form therefore

Ammonia and Hydrochloric Acid Lab Chemistry 1 Abstract The straw should be cut shorter to 8 cm in order to make the solid ring appear in the center of the straw. We achieved our goal‚ cutting the straw caused the gases to not have to go as far‚ and meet in the middle. Background The particles in a gas are very loose and tend to move around a lot very quickly. The particles in a solid are very compact and vibrate but don’t really move very much. The particles in a liquid however are more

Title: Studying SN1 and SN2 Reactions: Nucleophilic Substitutions at the saturated carbon Lab Partner: Jeszie Geronimo Objective and purpose: the purpose of this experiment is to convert a primary alcohol to an alkyl bromide using a Sn2 Reaction. Investigate some factors that influence the rate of Sn1 reactions. The second part of this lab will focus more on how unlike factors influence the rate of reactions in anSN1 reactions. The factors that we will be inspecting are the leaving groups‚ Cl-
