What is the atmosphere made up as
|
21% oxygen 78% nitrogen 1% other
|
|
What is the atmosphere made up of
|
Nitrogen
Oxygen Carbon dioxide Water vapor Other stuff |
|
Air is a=
|
Mixture of gases
|
|
What is the other made up as?
|
Argon,water vapor and Carbon dioxide
|
|
What are the traces in the atmosphere
|
Helium, neon ,methane ,nitrous oxygen
|
|
To measure the %of oxygen in air using a gas syringe
|
100cm3 of air is passed over the heated cooper turning from one syringe to another
The cooper reacts with the oxygen in the air to form cooper oxide Cooper+oxygen=cooper oxide(turned black) 2Cu+O2=2Cuo |
|
To show that there is carbon dioxide
|
Suck air through limewater
Air turned limewater a milky colour CO2 is present in air |
|
Water vapor in air
|
Crush ice into test tube
Water vapor from air condensed on outside of test tube Moisture turned white Anhydrous copper sulfate blue Water vapor is present in air |
|
The preparation of oxygen gas
|
Hydrogen peroxide slowly decomposes to give off oxygen gas and water
The reaction needs to be faster!It needs a catalyst Manganese dioxide |
|
What is a catalyst
|
A catalyst is a substance that speeds up a reaction without being used up in the reaction
|
|
What are some uses of oxygen
|
Welding and medicine(oxygen masks)
|
|
To test for oxygen
|
Light a match inside a test tube
Oxygen rekindles(delights) a glowing this is the characteristics test for oxygen |
|
To show that approximately one fifth of the air is oxygen (1)
|
The water rises approximately one fifth of the height of the graduated cyclinder to replace the oxygen used up by the burning candle
|
|
To show that one fifth of the air is oxygen(2)
|
Volume of the air before heating=100cm3
Volume of air after hearing cooper=79cm3 Volume of oxygen present in 100cm3=21cm3 |
|
Calcium carbonate + hydrochloric acid = calcium chloride + water + carbon dioxide
|
CaCO3+2HCL=CaCl2+H2O+Co2
|
|
Preparation of carbon dioxide (test 1)
|
Slowly realize the hydrochloric acid into the flask underneath
Carbon dioxide is collected in glass jar Pour a small volume of limewater into the jar+ shake-the limewater will turn milky showing the gas is carbon dioxide |
|
Preparation of carbon dioxide (test 2)
|
Slowly realize the hydrochloric acid into the flask underneath
Carbon dioxide is collected in glass jar Add water to a fresh jar of carbon dioxide +test with blue litmus:it turned red demonstrating that it is an acid |
|
Limewater +carbon dioxide =calcium carbonate +water
|
Ca(OH)2+CO2=CaCO3+H2O
|
|
To show that carbon dioxide doesn't support combustion
|
Light a wooden splint and insert it into a glass jar of carbon dioxide
Result:the splint will extinguish showing that carbon dioxide does not support combustion |
|
Carbon dioxide has a greater density than air
|
Pour the gas over the candle
Because carbon dioxide is densire than air the gas sinks and extinguishes the candle |
|
Some uses of carbon dioxide
|
Fizzy drinks,fire extinguisher + special effects on stage
|
