31 Introduction- Magnesium is a silvery-white alkaline metal found represent by the atomic number of 12. This experiment involves combining Magnesium with Oxygen which is a gas represented by the chemical element 8. The word equation for the result of this experiment is Magnesium + Oxygen= Magnesium Oxide. The equation is Mg + O =MgO Definitions Word Definitions Mass Number The Mass number is the amount of Protons and Neutrons in the Nucleus. Atomic Number The amount of protons found

Title: Measuring the loss in mass of Marble chips and Hydrochloric acid Aim: We will measure the loss in mass of the marble chips (CaCO 3 ) as it reacts with Hydrochloric acid (HCl). This one method of measuring the rate of reaction. We will use a balance to measure this mass loss as the reactants are used up to form product. Safety: * As Hydrochloric acid is corrosive wear a lab coat‚ gloves and safety goggles. * Take care when using the glassware not to cut yourself. * When

Introduction We are going to do an experiment to see how surface area effects the rate of reaction when added to hydrochloric acid. I will add calcium carbonate (marble chips) to hydrochloric acid. When calcium carbonate is added to hydrochloric acid a reaction takes place. The solution fizzes and gives off the gas carbon dioxide. I will collect this gas in a gas syringe and will time how long it takes for the reaction to produce 100cm3 of carbon dioxide. CaCO3 +2HCL Co2 +CaCl2 +H2O CalciumHydrochloricCarbonCalciumWater

Aim During this experiment I will be investigating if heating limestone and changing the concentration of the acid will affect the rate of reaction. Preliminary work Before doing our main experiment‚ we will have to conduct another experiment‚ to see what concentration of acid we will have to use. We done this using 0.1M‚ 0.5M and 1M of Hydrochloric acid‚ and 0.1g of powdered limestone‚ we used powdered limestone‚ as it would be a fairer test‚ I think this as all the particles of limestone will

Diffusion of Hydrochloric Acid into Different Sizes of Agar Blocks Aim: Investigating the relationship between the diffusion and the surface area to volume ratio‚ with agar and hydrochloric acid. Research Question: How does the difference in surface area to volume ratio affect the diffusion? Hypothesis: As the area to volume ratio increases‚ the time taken for a complete diffusion will also increase. Background Information: Agar is a jelly like substance and in this experiment‚ agar

known starting mass of magnesium and the measured collection of hydrogen gas will be used to determine the reaction stoichiometry and the valency of magnesium Introduction Stoichiometry is the study of the quantitative relationship between amounts of reactants and products of a reaction. Stoichiometry can be used to calculate the amount of a product formed when given the reactants and a percentage yield. In the case of this experiment‚ a known starting mass of magnesium ribbon and the amount of collected

Magnesium‚ an abundant mineral in the body‚ is naturally present in many foods‚ added to other food products‚ available as a dietary supplement‚ and present in some medicines (such as antacids and laxatives). Magnesium is a cofactor in more than 300 enzyme systems that regulate diverse biochemical reactions in the body‚ including protein synthesis‚ muscle and nerve function‚ blood glucose control‚ and blood pressure regulation [1-3]. Magnesium is required for energy production‚ oxidative phosphorylation

Beryllium and magnesium These are just like the reactions with dilute hydrochloric acid‚ and you have probably been familiar with the reaction between magnesium and dilute sulphuric acid almost since you started doing chemistry. Bubbles of hydrogen are formed‚ together with colourless solutions of beryllium or magnesium sulphate. For example: Calcium‚ strontium and barium Calcium sulphate is sparingly soluble‚ and you can think of strontium and barium sulphates as being insoluble

The Effect of the Concentration of Sulphuric Acid on the Reaction Rate with Magnesium Sarah Cain SCH 4UB Mr. Lankin April 1‚ 2009 Introduction The nature of the problem is to design an investigation that examines a variable affecting the reaction rate. In this experiment‚ magnesium will be reacted with different concentrations of sulphuric acid. The reaction is shown by the following chemical equation: H2SO4 (l) + Mg (s) → MgSO4 (aq) + H2
