For experience 4c we were supposed to determine which one is the organic layer in three different tubes that has two layers. To determine which is aqueous (water) or organic, I used the technique of adding droplets of water to each tube. If the layer is water, then the drops of added water will dissolve in the aqueous layer and increase it's volume. If the added water form droplets or a new layer, then it is the organic layer. Tube 1 (water and n-butyl chloride), after adding couple droplets of water, the water seems to dissolved at the bottom layer. This make sense because the density of water is 1000 kg/m3 is more dense than n-butyl chloride (880 kg/m3) and so we can say that water would be the bottom layer that's why when water droplets was added in, the water dissolved at the bottom layer. Tube number 2 (water and n-butyl bromide), after adding few drops of water, the bottom layer form a droplet. This make sense because again, density of water is 1000 kg/m3 while density for n-butyl bromide is 1276 kg/m3 so n-butyl got to be at the bottom, and this result in the forming water droplet at the bottom layer. And tube number 3 (water and saturated aqueous sodium bromide), this tube again the same as second tube, water is the top layer, NaBr is the bottom layer because NaBr has a density of 3210 kg/m3.
For experience 4d:
Question 1. Presumably I have an acidic compound and a neutral compound in the mixture. The acid is represent by RCOOH. So with the NaOH added, it form the sodium salt (which is soluble in water and the neutral compound is not). RCOOH goes to RCOONa. Then I separate the layers, add HCl to the RCOONa which forms the original acid and that is what is precipitating. If I have all of the acid removed from the mixture, then the second extract contains no RCOONa and no precipitate is formed when HCl is added.
Question 2: The melting point of the neutral compound is 75 to 85C.
Question 3: Based on the melting point, the identity

    The overall goal of experiment four was to determine the identity of unknown cations presented to the student. But in order to know the identity of these unknowns, in part 1, Ag+, Pb+, and Hg22+ were presented to the student in aqueous solutions and then precipitated through experimentation. In part 2, the same procedure was enacted to determine which substances precipitated through qualitative analysis. Solubility rules were also a major theme as solubility is important in determining whether a reaction will produce a precipitate.…

    I would predict that the pure water and sodium chloride solutions would not have a very strong buffering capacity and therefore would almost immediately drop or raise the pH level depending on whether a base or acid was added. As far as the mixture of sodium acetate and acetic acid, I would predict that they would be a better buffer than the previous solutions. There are varying amounts of sodium acetate, but I don’t predict that they will have much different results as far as buffering solutions goes. This is because they all have the same amount of acetic acid, which will act as the main buffer. I predict that this will be the…

    2. Three of the reactant combinations made a precipitate. The first precipitate was ammonium hydroxide because the solution became cloudy as soon as the ammonium hydroxide came into contact with the cupric chloride. Second was the sodium carbonate because it did not mix with the cupric chloride at all. The sodium carbonate left what looked like white ribbons in the original solution. Last was the silver nitrate because part of the compound was left on the surface of the cupric chloride, creating a white top layer, but the rest mixed.…

    After I filtered and transferred the remaining substance containing the yellow precipitate into the 50ml test tube, I used the scale in order to determine the weight, which resulted with a weight of 16.160 g. The results were clearly that mixing the two soluble solutions together created a chemical reaction and formed a yellow precipitate. This indicates that one of cations and one of the anions produce a compound that is not soluble in water since it left behind a solid…

    The seven liquids I have chosen for the experiment have different weights and textures. My hypothesis is that the liquids that have more density, even though I am using the same amount of liquid, will be on the bottom of the column. The liquids that are less dense will then layer on top of the more dense liquid. They will create a layer of seven different liquids one on top of the other.…
