Double Displacement

Decent Essays
The different types of chemical reactions were ideally performed in the lab, such as synthesis, combustion, single and double displacement. To distinguish the difference between the reactions, the chemical formulas indicated how the chemical substances were bonded. It is supported by the fact that Iron (III) Nitrate and aluminum formed an aqueous solution and a precipitate. By looking at the reactivity series, aluminum is higher up at the list, and it replaced iron to bond with nitrate. The lab of Iron (III) Nitrate and aluminum was an example of single displacement. However, the lip splint test did not perform as predicted, possible errors that were made were the gas that was formed inside the test tube were not enough to form the squeaky

    Goals The goal of the lab was to investigate the properties and structure of an unidentified compound that was discovered in a local landfill. The group was called in to help determine the chemical and physical properties of the compound so we can let the people of the town know so it can be taken care of properly with or without further precautions to be taken. Another goal of this project was to devise the synthesis of the unknown compound. Experimental Design In order to determine the correct identity of our unknown compound, we first started with a couple preliminary tests, which include physical state and smell.…

    When hydrochloric acid was added to the unknown and known solutions, both resulted in no reaction. This also occurred when potassium hydroxide was added to both of the solutions. Barium chloride was then added to the two solutions, which resulted in a cloudy white precipitate from both of the solutions. A cloudy white precipitate also formed when calcium nitrate and ammonium nitrate were added to both the unknown and known solutions. These reactivity tests were conducted in order to establish how the unknown compound would react with acids, bases, and salts.…

    The NASA Antares Rocket exploded out of the air, after it was clearly safe to launch. 5,000 pounds of supplies and more than 200 million dollars were wasted. Heading to the space station on the rocket were several experiments given by the Chinese, Russians, Americans, and Australians. They were supposed to be tested in space to examine their effects in space however, after the explosion, the experiments need to be returned back to each country accordingly. The Chinese will get LB (mineral oil), MD (aluminum), WC (oak), and PA (corn starch); the Russian people shall receive LC ( isopropyl alcohol), MC (brass), WA (poplar), and PC (salt); the people of the U.S. will receive LE (corn syrup), MF (lead), WB (balsa), and PF (sucrose); the Australian…

    The study of microbiology requires not only understanding the microscopic organisms, but also the understanding of lab techniques and procedures used to identify, control, and manipulate microorganisms. The identification of microorganisms is not only important in microbiology lab, but also in the medical field to identify an agent of a disease that will help treat the patient by using the correct antibiotics to kill off the host. In this unknown lab report, techniques and procedures learned in the microbiology laboratory during the semester that was performed to test ones practical understanding of microbiology. The sole purpose of the unknown lab is to demonstrate understanding of the experimental methods and lab techniques learned during…

    Given an unknown compound in container 3, solubility tests, cation tests, anion tests, and conductivity tests can be used to determine the various properties of the unknown to then make a positive identification of the unknown. These results will not only show chemical and physical properties but also what the unknown compound might react with to form other compounds. After performing the four anion tests, a positive identification was able to be made showing that the unknown compound contained a chloride ion since a white precipitate was formed from the reaction (Table 1). The sulfate, nitrate, and carbonate tests all yielded negative results when no precipitate was formed. The reaction of the chloride anion is as follows: Cl-…

    Nitric acid and brass pellets (copper) were set to react under a fume hood. The scientist observed the once liquid acid turning a green color, and the release of an orange gas due to violent fizzing/bubbling on the surface of the copper pellets: a chemical reaction. Because nitric acid is a very strong acid that is weakly bonded, it violently reacts with the metal. After about 30 minutes, the scientist noted the once clear liquid was now a dark, rich, blue aqueous Copper (II) Nitrate solution. While the solution at first appeared homogenous, the scientist noted the presence of 4 - 1mm small dark lumps, unreacted brass.…

    Almost all chemical reactions involve a loss or gain of heat. This change in heat is called enthalpy. The goal of this experiment is to calculate enthalpy for three different reactions. To calculate the enthalpy of a reaction, a calorimeter is used to measure the change in heat energy from mixing different substances. The change of temperature is found by comparing the change in temperature of the system to the temperature of the surroundings.…

    For example at station one, barium chloride reacted with silver nitrate yielding to barium nitrate and silver chloride. Barium nitrate is aqueous because all nitrates are soluble. Silver chloride is the precipitate because all chlorides expect silver and a few others are soluble, since silver is an exception silver chloride is insoluble. To determine which reactant out of the chemical reactions the solubility rules provided the guideline necessary to figure out which reactant is the precipitate. The reactions in this equation were all of the same type of chemical reaction.…
