Volumetric Pipette Lab

Improved Essays
Aim
The aim of this practical is to measure the effect of volume, density and temperature. It is also help to be familiar with variety of common laboratory technique.
Materials
Weighting scale
Container with lids
20 and 10 ml Volumetric pipette
Beaker
Thermometer
Test Tubes
Volumetric flask
Natural Rubber Pipette Filler
Micropipette tips
Tips boxes
Method
There are two pipette, choose one which you using in whole practical. Label and weight accurately, to 4 decimal places. Collect three container and weights with significantly and place water on tube and measure the temperature. Using the volumetric pipette and transfer 20.0mL of de-ionised water into each weighting tube and put the lids on the correct tube. Reweight the tube

Now move onto using 10mL volumetric pipette. Measure the temperature of the water again as before. In exact same way as before now pipette 10mL of water into 3 dry tubes and re-weight. Calculate the volume of water in each tube using 10mL volumetric pipette. Refer to practical – Chemistry Experiment 1 procedure by UniSA/Anthea Fudge, 2015, pages 149-158.

Observations
In this practical there are some thing happen which is after measuring the two sample my weight scale was not working. When using the Natural Rubber Pipette Filler, the first time my pipette filler was licking the air that’s the reason need to change to pipette filler. The bubble was found when using measuring water from volumetric pipette.
Results

For, example, final volume of the mean volume of 10ml of water is calculated to 10. ; Analysing the density vs temperature graph as temperature increase the density will decrease. In graph above show that when temperature is 160C our density is 0.998 in other hand temperature is 19.00C and density is 0.9972.Random errors in this particle are measuring the water on volumetric pipette. Random errors are minimized by taking more data and it can be reduced by averaging the data which we collect by add them all and divided by the total number (to overcome the random error we take average). Systemic errors is an error that is constant or drifting slightly and is due to a consistent mistake made during the analysis. A systematic in this practical includes, differing or incorrect analytical method to that used to determine he true value.in this practical is constant weighting this water and empty container. To minimised systematic errors we need to take care more when we conducting practical. There are some little errors but overall practical was successful

    Aligning the wells at the negative end of the box was very important. With the gel being inside the box, running buffer was used to fill up the gel until the wells were covered with the buffer. Next step was to use the micropipette and provided tips to fill up each well with 35 uL of each sample in their separate wells. Everything was checked to make sure everything was properly done. Electrodes were hooked in their desired locations, power source was provided to the gel box, and timer was set for 15 minutes.…

    In the very first experimental lab for organic chemistry, students are introduced to the world of the microscale which is very important for the organic chemistry experience. This would become a stepping stone for acquiring all the technique and experience in handling organic compounds safely and also effectively. This means to use the tools provided in order to get a better and much deeper understanding of the chemistry when applying it real time to reactions. In this case, the experiment was split up into 2 with exercise 1 split into parts with different tools to be used.…
