Experiment: Calorimetry Laboratory Experiment – Heat of Solution Aim: The aim was to use calorimetric measurements to calculate the molar heat of solution of NaOH and NH4NO3. Method: 1. 50g of water was poured into a clean polystyrene calorimeter (Styrofoam cup) and the initial temperature was measured. 2. A teaspoon of 2g of the selected salt was measured and added into the water. 3. The solution was stirred and the final temperature was measured when the solution stabilised and the results

Chemical Reactions Lab Synthesis Reactions: Synthesis reactions occur when two elements or compounds combine to create one single compound. The general equation of synthesis reactions is: A+B→AB. The following are the complete balanced equations for the five synthesis reactions performed in the lab. Reaction 1: Reaction 2: Reaction 3: Reaction 4: Reaction 5: The reaction of CO2 and water is a prime example of a synthesis reaction. This is a synthesis reaction because it follows the general

MENDOZA DEPARTMENT OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING‚ COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES DILIMAN‚ QUEZON CITY DATE PERFORMED: JANUARY 30‚ 2015 INSTRUCTOR’S NAME: JACOB NOEL M. INGUITO INTRODUCTION Calorimetry‚ derived from the Latin calor meaning heat‚ and the Greek metry meaning to measure‚ is the science of measuring the amount of heat‚ q.1 The amount of heat is absorbed (endothermic where qrxn >0) or released (exothermic where qrxn <0) by the system with

INTRODUCTION – OBJECTIVES In this first experiment‚ we will perform 8 chemical reactions and 1 flame test in order to determine 2 things : a) firstly‚ we can know whether a reaction occurred or not. To complete our mission‚ we need to observe carefully some signs of chemical reaction’s appearance such as the change in color of solution‚ precipitate’s existence‚ the release

Answer the following questions in complete sentences‚ giving detailed explanations and support for each of your answers. 1. Explain in your own words what it means for a chemical system to be in the state of dynamic equilibrium. After a reaction has occurred for awhile at a given temperature‚ the forward and reverse reaction rate will eventually be equal. Although you may get this confused‚ the concentration may not be equal‚ but the rate will. This occurs in a closed system. In other terms

Carbohydrates Using the Phenol-Sulfuric Acid Method This lab introduced the students to analyzing carbohydrate content using a spectrophotometer and phenol-sulfuric acid methods. Virginia Smith 983976633 Lab Partner: Jeff Martz Due Date: 3-22-11 Introduction The objective of this lab was to have students use a spectrophotometer to analyze the carbohydrate content in the sample. Phenol-sulfuric acid methods were also applied to determine

we can learn to observe physical properties of varying substances as well as to use chemical reactions to observe chemical observe the chemical properties of varying substances. In experiment #1‚ we were able to detect physical properties of the aluminum and copper sulfate simply by looking at the substances. We then combined the two substances to see if they would create a chemical reaction and test the chemical properties. After being combined‚ bubbles and gas were created and the color of the

the reaction of butanols with hydrobromic acid. Before the lab began we discussed and proposed mechanisms. (see “Mechanisms”) To begin this experiment we calculated how much of each material we were going to be using‚ and the numbers we chose to use differed from our reference text slightly. We used 6.5 mL of our assigned butanol and only 4 mL of sulfuric acid. Going back to our reaction mechanisms‚ we were looking at SN1 and SN2 reactions‚ so we of course used the hydrobromic acid as our acid catalyst

Experiment 7: A Study of Chemical Changes: Types of Chemical Reaction INTRODUCTION Chemical changes are results of chemical reactions. All chemical reactions involve a change in substance and a change in energy. They are either chemical elements or compounds. A chemical reaction rearranges the constituent atoms of the reactants to create different substances as products. There are different types of chemical reaction classified into 4 general types‚ namely‚ Synthesis‚ Decomposition

Chemical reactions are a part of everyday lives. Whether it is the burning of propane at a kitchen stove‚ or washing detergent reacting with dirt stains‚ chemical reactions are useful tools that have widespread applications. With so many reactions assisting our everyday activities‚ it is important that ways to optimise reaction rates are investigated. “Reaction rate‚ the speed at which a chemical reaction proceeds… may be defined in terms of the amounts of the reactants consumed or products formed
