Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to study a set of metals and their reactions reactions using different metals in an ordered activity series‚ the goal is to find the relative reactivity of them.Discovering why metals react with certain cations and solutions is the main point of this lab. This has many real life applications. When creating buildings‚ or bridges it is important to understand and counter-act the rusting of iron. You can do that by using the activity series. For any industry

Determination of Trace Amount of Copper and Zinc in an Aqueous Solution by Atomic Absorbance Spectroscopy Abstract: The purpose of this experiment is to analyze a sample containing copper and zinc in trace amounts‚ where standard addition method was used and the instrument used is the atomic absorbance spectroscopy. The amount of copper obtained was 0.569 ppm ± 0.015 and for zinc we obtained 0.42 ppm ± 0.0027. Introduction: This method implies the excitation of particles in the solution sample

interactions have been captured through a group of correspondence called the Amarna Letters. Found in the ancient city Akhetaten‚ the Amarna Letters feature direct contact between Pharaoh Akhenaten and other leaders. According to archeologists‚ Alashiya‚ a copper rich civilization found in the letters‚ likely refers to an elite urban center in Cyprus (Priscila). At the time‚ Cyprus‚ divided into multiple elite sites‚ heavily imported exotic artifacts by exporting the resources procured by other secondary

Otzi the Iceman Otzi the Iceman is a nickname given to a very well preserved natural mummy of a man from Europe during the European Copper Age. He is the oldest natural human mummy preserved by freezing and he gives an extraordinary view of the European Copper Age. Otzi the Iceman aided us with an exceptional understanding of the European Copper Age from the equipment he was carrying‚ the cloth he was wearing‚ and the physical remains of his body. A set of well preserved equipments were discovered

Essay On Metals Iraj Malik 12/10/2012 MYP-5 The International School A metal is defined as a chemical element that is malleable and ductile‚ usually solid‚ has a characteristic luster‚ and is a good conductor of heat and electricity‚ e.g. copper or iron. Metals form oxides that are basic‚ they are good reducing agents and metals have lower electro negatives.There are many properties of metals. The chemical properties are that they can combine together with other metals to form am alloy.

electrical energy. In the potato battery‚ there is a transfer of electrons between the zinc coating the galvanized nail that will be inserted into the potato and the copper wire that will be inserted another part of the potato. The potato conducts electricity‚ yet keeps the zinc ions and copper ions separate‚ so that the electrons in the copper wire are forced to move (generate current). It’s not enough power to shock you‚ but the potato can run a small digital clock. Materials for a Potato Clock You

Copper-Silver Nitrate Reaction Introduction In this experiment copper wire will be placed in a solution of silver nitrate. This single replacement reaction will produce a blue solution of copper II nitrate and solid silver. By weighing the reactants before the reaction‚ the mass of silver produced can be predicted. This theoretical yield can be compared to the actual yield of silver. Purpose Students will compare the theoretical mass of silver with the actual mass of silver from the single
