Date Due: 18 January 2013 Date Submitted: 18 January 2013 Experiment No. 3: GRAVIMETRIC DETERMINATION OF PHOSPHORUS IN FERTILIZER SAMPLES I. Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to determinethe Phophorus content of fertilizer samples using Gravimetric Analysis. It involves dissolution of the fertilizer sample‚ precipitation and heating and cooling of the sample. Pooled standard deviations of the two data sets for

GRAVIMETRIC DETERMINATION OF MOISTURE IN FERTILIZER SAMPLES J.P. FERRERIA DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE‚ COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING DATE PERFORMED: DECEMBER 6‚ 2012 ------------------------------------------------- RESULTS AND DISCUSSION In this experiment‚ we demonstrated the process called gravimetric analysis‚ where we‚ specifically‚ measured the amount of moisture in a fertilizer sample. Here‚ the weights of the crucibles with the fertilizer samples are measured before and after placing

Gravimetric Determination of Phosphorus in Fertilizer Samples ------------------------------------------------- Results and Discussion More than 50% of fertilizers are composed of nitrogen‚ phosphorus and potassium because these three nutrients are essential but are deficient in soils. To ensure good quality of fertilizers‚ it is significant that the amounts of these nutrients are quantified. In this light‚ gravimetric principles are of much use. The objective of the experiment is to determine

Synthesis and Decomposition of Zinc Iodide Partners: Sonya Pasia and Kristen Kobayashi CH 085-01 20 September 2011 Zinc Iodide (ZnI2) was an interesting binary compound to experiment with. In this experiment‚ weakly acidified water (25mL distilled water with 18 drops 5M acetic acid solution) was used as an aid to bring molecules of the zinc and iodide atoms together‚ by dissolving iodine molecules‚ so that bonding would transpire to produce a reaction. Deprived of water‚ the Zn and I2

DETERMINATION OF ZINC AND NICKEL CONCENTRATION BY (1) ION-EXCHANGE CHROMATOGRAPHY FOLLOWED BY CHELOMETRIC TITRATION‚ AND BY (2) ATOMIC ABSORPTION SPECTROSCOPY OF THE MIXTURE Experiment 4 Dates of Experiment: 10/14/08 through 10/30/08 Date of Report: 11/7/08 Chem 2262L � I. Introduction In this experiment‚ the zinc and nickel contents of unknowns were tested using two methods. In the first method‚ nickel and zinc were separated through ion-exchange chromatography and analyzed through chelometric

Experiment 9 Empirical Formula of Zinc Iodide Objectives Upon completion of this experiment‚ students should have learned: 1. The law of conservation of mass. 2. How to calculate an empirical formula. 3. The concept of limiting reagents. Introduction Synthesis and the determination of empirical formulas are two extremely important parts of chemistry. In this experiment‚ you will synthesize zinc iodide and determine its empirical formula. The molecular formula gives the actual

Zinc is one of the longest-studied nutrients that correlates with statistically significantly less acne. Some months ago‚ I discovered that around 200mg/day of zinc picolinate could‚ under some circumstances‚ make me dramatically acne-free for the first time ever. That led to a very long course of study‚ research and experiments. For a megadose of zinc to affect acne dramatically‚ a good bet was that zinc is a cofactor in a reaction that affects acne. If you have a chemical reaction in the body

Divya Nagendran Professor Patrick Crawford CHEM 122-04 27 January The Role of Zinc in My Life Chemistry plays a vital role in our daily life. We find chemistry in every object we see or touch. We could find chemistry in the food we eat‚ the air we breathe‚ our acne treatment cream and the list goes on. There is one chemistry element that is important in my daily life and its Zinc or Zn 2+. During my high school year‚ I’ve had problems with hair loss. Each day I would lose 100 to 125 strands

emulsified grease or oil amount in the water samples by utilizing from the partition-gravimetric method. Introduction: Oil and grease is an important parameter for water quality and safety. Regulatory bodies worldwide set limits in order to control the amount oil and grease entering thewater reservoirs or the sea through industrial discharges and also limit the amount present in drinking water. The partition – gravimetric method involves extraction of dissolved or emulsified oiland grease from water
