Title: Redox Reaction Introduction: Some of the most important chemical reactions are Redox reactions. They are also known as oxidation-reduction reactions. This reaction passes one or more electrons from one species to another. The species that loses electrons are being oxidized while the species that gains electrons are reduced. The reaction occurs simultaneously. Numbers are given to each element in a chemical reaction to help us find out which element is oxidized and which is

Zinc oxide in a mixture with a about 0.5% iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3) is called calamine and is used in calamine lotion. There are also two minerals‚ smithsonite and hemimorphite‚ which have been called calamine historically (see: calamine (mineral). Zinc peroxide‚ ZnO2 .½ H2O‚ is a white to yellow powder that is used in antiseptic ointments. Zinc white is used as a pigment in paints and is more opaque than lithopone‚ but less opaque than titanium dioxide. It is also used in coatings for paper

Aim: to perform a firsthand investigation to compare the physical and chemical properties of magnesium and oxygen when they are experimented to form magnesium oxide Theory: The empirical formula of a compound is the formula that tells us the ratio in which the atoms are present in the compound. To calculate an empirical formula: - Write down the masses of all of the elements present - Convert masses to moles (by dividing by atomic weights in grams) - Divide through by the smallest number of

Experiment 4: Analyze a solution of potassium hydroxide using standard hydrochloric acid Theory . Introduction: Titration is a procedure used in chemistry in order to determines the molarity of an acid or a base. In the other words‚ it is also consider as acid-base neutralization reaction (Darrell D. Ebbing 1976). A chemical reaction is set up between a know volume of a solution of unknown concentration and a known volume of a solution with a known concentration. The relative acidity or

Nitrous oxide Nitrous oxide Description Nitrous oxide — an odorless‚ tasteless gas — is an inhalation analgesia that can be used during labor. You administer the anesthetic gas using a hand-held face mask. Nitrous oxide takes effect within a minute. While common in the United Kingdom and Canada‚ this technique is rarely used in the United States. Pros Nitrous oxide alters pain perception. It can be used intermittently or continuously during labor. If you need to have a tear repaired after delivery
