The Composition of Potassium Chlorate Objectives The objectives of this laboratory are: a) To experimentally determine the mass percent of oxygen in the compound potassium chlorate (KClO3) via the thermal decomposition of a sample of potassium chlorate. b) To qualitatively demonstrate that the residue resulting from the decomposition of potassium chlorate is potassium chloride. Background All compounds consist of elements chemically combined in fixed proportions – they obey the Law of Constant

Determining the enthalpy of neutralization by calorimetry Anam Iqbal Partner’s name: Danielle Hodgson TA’s name: Karinna Section # 003 Due date: November 24‚ 2009 Introduction The purpose of the experiment is to determine the enthalpy of neutralization reactions by calorimetry. Calorimetry‚ is the science of measuring the amount of heat. All calorimetric techniques are therefore based on the measurement of heat that may be generated (exothermic process) or consumed (endothermic process). The

This lab is performed in order to determine the total energy in a reaction between zinc and hydrochloric acid. The reaction is done twice‚ once to measure the heat of the reaction and again to determine the work done in the system. This is because Enthalpy equals heat plus work (∆H= ∆E+W). Heat and work can be broken down further into separate components so the equation used in lab is ∆H=mc∆T + PV. Many calculations are used in the lab to find out what cannot be measured directly (ex: volume). After

This experiment will test the suggestion that the enthalpy change between a metal and a solution of a salt is related to the relative position of the two metals in the reactivity. Presumably the further apart in the series the bigger the enthalpy change will be. The experiment is as follows‚ 1) Zn(s) + CuSO4(aq) ZnSO4(aq) + Cu(s) 2) Zn(s) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) Zn(NO3)2 (aq) + Pb(s) Both of the solutions will be in 1mol.dm-3 Apparatus: Distilled Water Polystyrene Cup

To carry out a lab experiment to decompose a carbonate using heat‚ also to carry out appropriate tests for the formation of products as a result of this decomposition. DISSCUSION: Carbonates are decomposed by heat into the corresponding oxides and carbon dioxide. The temperature of decomposition depends upon the activity of the metal; that is to say‚ the more active the metal‚ the more stable is the carbonate. Thus‚ the carbonates of sodium and potassium are stable at the highest temperature of a
