GRAVIMETRIC DETERMINATION OF MOISTURE IN FERTILIZER SAMPLES J.P. FERRERIA DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE‚ COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING DATE PERFORMED: DECEMBER 6‚ 2012 ------------------------------------------------- RESULTS AND DISCUSSION In this experiment‚ we demonstrated the process called gravimetric analysis‚ where we‚ specifically‚ measured the amount of moisture in a fertilizer sample. Here‚ the weights of the crucibles with the fertilizer samples are measured before and after placing

Gravimetric Analysis Report Aim: Determine the % by mass composition of a sand-salt mixture. Background: Gravimetric analysis is a method which is based on the isolation of the desired sample in pure forms or in some combined form from a sample‚ and weighing the isolated constituent. Then from the weights of the sample or precipitate‚ a percentage can be calculated out of the constituent. Solubility is the amount of a substance which is called the solute‚ dissolves in a volume of liquid substance

GRAVIMETRIC ANALYSIS Methods in GA Precipitation Method - involves isolation of an ion in solution by a precipitation reaction‚ filtering‚ washing the precipitate free of contaminants‚ conversion of the precipitate to a product of known composition‚ and finally weighing the precipitate and determining its mass by difference. From the mass and known composition of the precipitate‚ the amount of the original ion can be determined. Volatilization Method -the analyte or its decomposition products

Gravimetric determination of sulphate in fertiliser Question: The proportion of sulphate present in a brand of commercial fertiliser under a range of temperatures. Fertilisers provide plants with a number of sources necessary for them to grow‚ as follows‚ nitrogen‚ phosphorus‚ potassium and finally the one I will be concentrating on Sulfur. To cater for the varying plants‚ you wouldn’t require all these elements to the same extent as the necessities for each plant differ. The composition of different

and weighed. The percentage of chloride present was found to be 24.73695223 (±0.00000006) %. Introduction The purpose of this lab was to determine the percentage of chloride in an unknown soluble salt sample through a gravimetric method known as precipitation gravimetry. The objective was to accurately and precisely convert the unknown sample containing the chloride analyte to another known solid‚ silver chloride. Once the mass of the known solid is measured‚ the percentage

SynopsisThe objective is to determine the amount of Sulphate in anhydrous Barium Sulphate precipitate by gravimetric method. Gravimetric method is by the quantitative determination of the mass of anhydrous Barium Sulphate precipitate. Barium sulphate precipitate is form when Barium Chloride is added excessively to a hot given Sulphate solution slightly acidified with concentrated Hydrochloride acid. The white precipitate of hydrate Barium Sulphate formed is than digest‚ filtered out‚ washed and dried

Principle Titration is a laboratory method that is the slow addition of one solution to another until the reaction reaches neutralization‚ which is often indicated by color change. Acid-base titration is the most frequently used procedure to determine the concentration of an acid or basic solution. This titration is also called as neutralization reaction. By adding an indicator to the solution‚ we will

Experiment V02 An analysis of aspirin tablets Procedure a. Weigh accurately a definite number of aspirin tablets (two or three tablets weighing no more than 1.5 g) into a 250 cm3 conical flask. Initiate the hydrolysis of the aspirin by adding 25 cm3 of 1.0 M sodium hydroxide by pipette‚ diluting with approximately the same volume of distilled water. Warm the flask over a tripod and gauze for ten minutes to complete the hydrolysis. b. Cool the reaction mixture and transfer with washings to
