Percent Copper in Brass Background The scientific concepts involved in this lab include Spectroscopy‚ Beer’s law‚ Calibration curve‚ concentration‚ and electronic transitions. The main objective of this experiment is to see how the percent composition of brass can be determined to verify the properties influenced by copper and zinc. Brass is a generic term for alloys of copper and zinc. The main technique used in this experiment is Spectroscopy. The three equations used in this lab are: Y = mx

Copper Chloride Lab Report Procedure Part A: 1. Pick up the container of copper chloride dehydrate‚ and observe material. Describe crystals in detail‚ and write down all of the observations. Part B: 1. Take a 100 ml beaker and fill ¼ of it with water. Use a spatula to add some copper chloride dehydrate to the beaker filled with water. Record the observations. Be sure to observe the water and the copper chloride dehydrate. 2. Stir the contents in the beaker with

The primary objective in the lab is to determine the molecular formula of Copper Oxide through synthesis of copper oxide. In the first procedure‚ an empty crucible‚ Bunsen Burner‚ and electronic scale were placed onto the workbench. The electronic scale was zeroed before the crucible was placed on it. The total mass of the empty crucible was 88.000g. Afterwards‚ 10 grams of copper powder was placed into the crucible and weighed to be 98.000 g. The crucible with the copper was placed onto the Bunsen

experiment‚ synthesis of copper compounds‚ the purpose was to recover the original amount of copper after series of chemical reactions. Then returning the copper back to its original form. The copper wire originally weighted 1.0099 g‚ but after the copper was transformed into Cu(OH)2 to CuO to CuSO4 and finally into Cu‚ the mass of the recovered copper was 1.1023g; the percent yield was 109%. Since the percent yield is more than 100%‚ an error must have occurred somewhere in the lab. A possible error could

Penny-Ante Equilibrium Introduction What is equilibrium? What happens to the amount of reactants and products when equilibrium is reached? What if more reactants or products are added to a system already at equilibrium? In this activity‚ pennies will be used as reactants and products in a reversible reaction to answer these questions and learn more about the fundamental nature of equilibrium. Concepts • Reversible reactions • Equilibrium • Equilibrium constant • LeChatelier’s principle Materials

may affected the mass of the copper was recovered and also the percentage of yield. According to the law of conservation of matter‚ the mass of the copper will not change even though there are many chemical reactions happened which also mean that the mass of copper contained in solutions or precipitates remain the same as the copper in the beginning. And it is necessary to synthesize the various copper compounds in order to recover metal because the amount of copper might be left due to some errors

A Penny Saved Is Two Pennies Wasted The United States of America‚ despite its relatively short life‚ is immersed in tradition. While some of these traditions are well-known and apparent‚ others are less obvious. The penny‚ our little copper one-cent piece littering change jars from coast to coast‚ is a tradition that‚ while seemingly harmless‚ is a great burden to our country. Due to the lost profits in the creation of today’s one-cent piece and using the models of previous successful countries

experiment is to convert copper metal through a series of intermediate copper compounds back into copper metal. By weighing the copper at the beginning and at the end of the experiment the percentage yield can be determined. Method: The experiment was carried out as outlined in the practical manual.
