6.03 Calorimetry Lab
Class average for a 80 and 120 drop count was recorded to be 0.041+/- 0.005 mL/drop. If a graduated cylinder is not available there is another way of adding more of the solution. The disposable pipet can transfer 0.5mL of the solution to the chemical reaction. When comparing a 10mL graduated cylinder, a 100mL beaker, and a 50mL graduated cylinder, the most precision peace of glass wear would be the 10 mL graduated cylinder with the true volume of water (calculated), class average, and uncertainties being 9.7896 +/- 0.05mL. The 50mL graduated cylinder comes in second place with a true volume of water(calculated), class average, and uncertainties being 50.0001 +/- 0.22mL. The third peace of glassware coming in as the least accurate would be the 100 mL beaker with a true volume of water(calculated), class average, and uncertainties being 59.9999 +/- 0.82mL. …show more content…
Metal bar D(lead) has a identity of 11.36, in the experimental density +/- uncertainty bar D is 11.2+/- 0.6 g/mL. The theoretical density information was founded in General Chemistry Laboratory Manual for CSU Bakersfield, CHEM 211, 3rd ed. Buschhaus, M. 2015. Each experimental identification described was strongly supported by there experimental densities +/- uncertainty and by only being off by 0.06. Both results come out in range of what is being searched for. The bars still have a little more play room with their densities and will still be in

    Calorimetry is the measurement of the quantity of heat exchanged during chemical reactions or physical changes. For example, if the energy from an exothermic chemical reaction is absorbed in a container of water, the change in temperature of the water provides a measure of the amount of heat added.…

    In this experiment, the specific heat and the density of an unknown metal was determined in order to identify the unknown metal. The average specific heat of the unknown metal was 0.197˚C and was determined using a calorimeter. The density of the unknown metal was 6.57 g/mL and was determined using a cylinder and displacement. Using the specific heat value of the unknown metal and its density, it was determined that the unknown metal was Tin.…

    Start off by weighing two paracetamol tablets using some accurate scales. Record the mass down (1.15g). This had to be as accurate and precise as we could get it so we had the correct weight to start the experiment. Without this then the results we found at the end would not be accurate. A problem that could be faced with this is that the scales may not have been fully set to zero. Also it takes time for it to fully reach its weight on the reading so you may move them too quick before the right weight has been set.…

    Your teacher will demonstrate for the class the reaction of metallic copper with concentrated nitric acid, HNO3. This must be done in the fume hood. (Caution: Avoid breathing poisonous gases. Avoid contact of skin with nitric acid. It burns skin and clothing.) One student will be asked to feel the side of the demonstration beaker and report to the group. The products formed are copper(II) nitrate solution, Cu(NO3)2(aq), and nitrogen dioxide gas, NO2(g).…

    In this lab, we dissolved a calcium-enriched tablet and participate the calcium ion as calcium carbonate. Our purpose is to determine the masses of calcium carbonate and calcium ion, to determine the mass percent of calcium ion in the tablet and to compare the masses and the percent with the listed tablet ingredients. This time we used a 150mL beaker, analytical balance, forceps, a 50mL graduated cylinder, a glass rod, beaker tongs, a hot plate, two 16 x 125-mm test tubes, centrifuge, a medicine dropper, a filter paper, a filter funnel, a 250-mL Erlenmeyer flask, a watch glass, a drying oven, a spatula and a red litmus paper. The chemicals we need were 20mL of 2.0M HCl, a calcium-enriched tablet and 25mL of 1.0M Na2CO3 solution.…

    Using the buret to read the volume of water is a source of random error because it is marked to the nearest 0.1mL. Therefore, our data could be above or below the actual volume of water in the buret because we took our reading to the nearest 0.01mL, which increases our uncertainty level. Along with taking our volume readings to the nearest 0.01mL, a random error also arose when we took the reading of the temperature of the water. The thermometer only read to the nearest tens places, therefore our readings went to only the tenths place which could have been measured inaccurately giving rise to more uncertainty and random error within the lab. We were able to limit our uncertainty level when taking the masses of the beaker with and without water, by using the analytical balances which read to the nearest ±0.0001g.…
