Develop hypotheses predicting the effect of pyrite and coal on the acidity of water? a. Pyrite hypothesis = If pyrite is added to a beaker with 100mL of water‚ then it will reduce the pH over 48 hours. b. Coal hypothesis = It activated carbon is added

Another important concept when dealing with measurements is accuracy‚ which refers to the agreement between experimental data and a known value. These two concepts are important when relating to any experimental measurement that we would make. In this experiment‚ we focus on precision and determine how it varies with different measurements. We need to keep in mind that data can be very precise such that each data point is close to the others‚ yet contain a high degree of experimental error. There are quantitative

Analysis of Alum The objective of this lab is to run tests on a compound and analyze the substance itself‚ and then determine whether or not the compound is actually alum. Jill Cline Period 3 November 19‚ 2013 Laurel Hergenroeder and Sarinah Martelli Introduction/Purpose The purpose of this experiment is to run various tests on the substance called alum. (AlK(SO4)2 ∙ 12H2O). These tests like the process of filtration heating the solution will reveal things

D_____ J_____ CARBOHYDRATES LAB May 22‚ 2013 Pre-lab Questions 1. The water in test tube No. 1 is a negative control. No reaction is expected to occur because water is not a carbohydrate. Reaction by a negative control is evidence of contamination. 2. The color changes expected for positive test results are Benedict’s test: orange to brick red Tollen’s test: metallic silver Starch iodine test: blue-black 3. Identify each of the samples in Part 1 as monosaccharide

Title: Liquids and Solids Purpose: The experiment will help determine two important physical properties‚ boiling and melting point‚ of liquids and solids. Procedure: Before starting the experiment I gathered all materials appropriate for the experiment and prepare a safe environment for my experiment. I record the boiling point of the Isopropyl Alcohol and the melting point of powdered Acetamide with lab equipment such as the thermometer‚ capillary tube‚ beaker‚ test tube‚ and burner fuel

Pos t-Lab Data Summary Note : some questions will display a variable like "nCount" or "SyInput" instead of an actual number in the data summary. Q# Question Text 5) Data Entry - No Scoring Enter the precise mass in GRAMS of the potassium iodate used to prepare your primary standard solution. Your mass precision should be reported to a thousandth of a gram‚ i.e. 0.302. (Use 3 significant figures.) Your Answer: 0.536 No Points Possible 6) Scoring Scheme: 3-3-2-1 If one had weighed out precisely
