Sugar Dissolve Lab Report

The purpose of this lab was to find the effect of different types of liquids on the ability for sugar to dissolve. It was predicted that water and rubbing alcohol would dissolve the sugar but vegetable oil wouldn’t. Sugar was stirred into different liquids to see if the sugar would dissolve in two minutes. The data shows that the water was the only liquid that dissolved the sugar. After conducting the experiment, the hypothesis was proven incorrect. It was hypothesized that the sugar would dissolve in both water and rubbing alcohol, but the sugar did not dissolve in rubbing alcohol.

A possible source of an experimental error is that not all of the sugar may have been dumped in or one solvent had more sugar than the other by not measuring

    Gummy Bear Experiment Essay

    These results show that the gummy bear was hypertonic compared to the pure water solution but was hypotonic to the 30% and 50% salt water concentrated solutions. Thus, in order to create an equilibrium in these solutions, water flowed into the gummy bear in the first solution and flowed out of the gummy bear in the other two solutions. In brief, the higher the solute concentration in comparison to the gummy bear, the more the water would flow out to create a isotonic solution due to the process of…

    Lab Report: Bubble Gum

    Each of the participants in the Bubble Gum “A real sugar high” lab were to instructed to bring several types of gum. On the day of the lab, step one required all participants were to measure the gum’s mass along with it’s wrapper (Bubble Gum “A Real Sugar High”, n.a.). The second step instructed each participator to chew the without swallowing and have no product to the mass. Step two also suggested that different members participating in the lab should chew the gum for different amounts of time or measure the gum’s mass several different times and make sure that the gum is placed onto the gum wrapper (Bubble Gum “A Real Sugar High”, n.a.). Step three in the lab stated that while chewing the gum, the wrapper must be massed and also come up…

    Ap Chemistry Lab Report

    There may have been errors in the lab that may have affected the results of the lab. There may have been mistakes: a person may have not measured the substances correctly while retrieving the liquids in the graduated cylinder, or not have been watching the conductivity probe while the group was measuring the electrolyte solution. Along with these, there is also the issue of timing the testing incorrectly. Adding onto this, there may have been a slight spill where the accurate amount of the substance being used was not completely added into the water for testing.…

    Soapy Water Experiment Results

    In the experiment, I tested how soapy water would affect the amount of droplets the penny can hold. The results of my experiment show that the penny holds less droplets of soap water. When the soap is added to the water, the soap collides with water breaking down the tension. As a result, it harder for the droplets to hold together. To find whether my hypothesis was right, I did several of trials to figure out whether my hypothesis was correct.…

    Alka Seltzer Experiment Essay

    The experiment that I will be conducting focuses on how fast one tablet of Alka seltzer can dissolve in various temperatures of water. The core of this procedure is to determine the impact that temperature has on how fast something dissolves. My hypothesis for this experiment would be that the Alka Seltzer that dissolves the fastest would be the one that was placed in the water with the highest temperature. There will be controlled and manipulated variables explained throughout the experiment. The two main things used in this experiment will be the solute and the solvent, which is Alka Seltzer and water.…

    Osmosis Lab Report

    Hypothesis: Throughout my observations and my education of the process of Osmosis, the movement of the solutions moving up from the “mysterious” solution inside the semi permeable membrane which is known as the dialysis bag. Osmosis happens because of the molecules crossing, for more of an understanding according to Anita H, she says “…high water concentration to an area of low water concentration through a partially selectively permeable membrane” (Anita) The molecules cross from less concentrated solution to the higher concentration solutions (The low concentration solution is the distilled water immersing the dialysis bag and the concentration liquid is the fluid inside the bag). Throughout the experiment it is knowledgeable that invertase is the cause for breaking down the sucrose, meaning that without invertase it is unable to cross the semi-permeable membrane.…

    Discussion: The hypothesis stated that as the amount of baking soda increases, the total time of its reaction with vinegar will be increased as well. However, that was not the case during the actual experiment. As discussed previously, the results followed a small pattern but not for the whole experiment. The results can be confirmed that are very reliable, since repeated trials were done, sometimes more than three.…

    Gravimetric Analysis of a Metal Carbonate Purpose The purpose of this lab is to find the mass of an unknown metal by conducting a double-displacement precipitation reaction, which is our gravimetric analysis. Once we find the precipitate mass, we can then find the molar mass by using the molar ratio given in the reaction equation. Procedure First, we set up the ring stand with a Bunsen burner, put a crucible on top of the pipe stem triangle and heated the crucible for a minute, then let it cool down.…

    Sugar Dissolving Lab

    PURPOSE/QUESTION The question that we will answer using this laboratory report is, “How is the rate of dissolving sugar affected by changing the temperature of the water, changing the rate of stirring, and changing the size of the crystal?” The independent variable of each laboratory experiment is different, however they are all being changed to get consistent and effective results for one dependent variable. The three independent variables are the temperature of water, rate of stirring and size of the crystal and the dependent variable of the all the experiments is the rate of sugar dissolving. HYPOTHESES Below are the laboratory experiment hypotheses that we have formed as a group to figure out what will happen to the rate of dissolving under…

    Discussion For the first part of the experiment, a solubility test was conducted on all compounds. Because they were all ionic, every known compound naturally dissolved in water, and conducted electricity. As the next determining factor in the process to identify the unknown substance, the compounds were tested in acetone. As seen in table 2, only one compound, Ca(NO3)2 was found to be soluble in this solvent.…

    Effect Of Temperature On Solubility

    If the results were out of the range I would consider the experiment unreliable. It was an accurate experiment, as the method was performed the same for all 9 trials. The sugar was the same brand, the water was kept to the correct temperatures at 4 oC being the coldest, 20 oC and 100 oC being the warmest., as well as the amount of times stirring at 5 minutes and the amount of sugar added to the solvent was kept the same each time. The validity of this experiment was acceptable as the results presented were all accurate. Trends in the experiment were that in the first 2 experiments, 4 oC and 20 oC, 2 of the trials collected the same data.…
