the reference material (Figure 1.2) but we could just compare the results. General Solubility Guidelines of Ionic Compounds in Water SOLUBLE COMPOUNDS EXCEPTIONS Almost all sodium (Na+ ), potassium (K+), and ammonium (NH4+ ) salts All chlorides (Cl- ), bromides (Br- ), iodides (I-) Ag+ , Hg2+ , Pb2+ All fluorides (F- ) Mg2+ , Ca2+ , Sr2+ , Ba2+ ,Pb2+ All nitrates (NO3- ), chlorates (ClO3- ), perchlorates (ClO4-), and acetates (CH3COO- ) Acetates of Ag+ and Hg2+ are only moderately…
which means that they did not react. At station one barium chloride and potassium nitrate did not react but barium chloride and silver nitrate reacted to form barium nitrate and silver chloride. The precipitate at station one was silver chloride. Both reactions at station two did not react. Station three had a reaction occur between sodium carbonate and calcium sulfate forming sodium sulfate and calcium carbonate. The precipitate was calcium carbonate. Station four formed a…
chemicals, hormones, ions, and metabolites (book). The chemicals and agents used in this lab to modify the frog's heart rate and contraction are extrinsic factors. They are cold water, warm water, pilocarpine, histamine, epinephrine, calcium chloride, sodium chloride, hydrochloric acid, and potassium…
At first glance, all the substances may have been considered to be similar, as they are all white substances that are generally fine powder or small crystals. However, the lab revealed substances C: citric acid, D: sucrose, and H: benzoic acid to be covalent compounds, while the remaining substances to be all ionic. The previously stated covalent compounds all were found to have low relative melting points when heating them on a hot plate, but they had mixed results to their solubilities:…
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…
more efficient. It is then extracted using dichloromethane (DCM) and maceration. The chlorophyll and β-carotene pigments are dissolved into the organic DCM layer which is polar and does not mix with water. The solution is then washed with sodium chloride (NaCl) to draw out any remaining water left in the solution that was not dried out by the ethanol. [1] Water will move toward the more hypertonic solution and separate from the DCM extract. After successful separation of the pigments from the…
the salt. The cation test told whether the unknown contained barium, calcium, potassium, sodium, strontium, lithium, copper, or magnesium. Given a chart of the colors that each burn, lit the unknown on fire with a bunsen burner and compared the flame color with the colors in the chart. In order to identify the anion, we needed to perform four anion reactions: chloride, sulfate, nitrate, and carbonate. To identify a chloride, equal amounts of the unknown solution, 6M HNO3, and AgNO3 are mixed…
1. Synopsis The main aim of the experiment is to find out the percentage of calcium carbonate in toothpaste by using back titration since calcium carbonate is an insoluble salt and does not dissolve in water. Back titration is a reverse method of titration used to obtain unknown concentration of analyte. A roughly weighed quantity of toothpaste? calcium carbonate is dissolved in a known amount of hydrochloric acid and is then titrated against sodium hydroxide. An orange colour will be observed…
and barium chloride. If a sulfate anion was present in the unknown solution, then the anion would combine with the barium and form the precipitate, BaSO4, and the chlorine ion would combine with the unknown’s cation. In this case a sulfate anion was present in the unknown so the sulfate combined with barium in the form of a precipitate, and the potassium combined with the chloride ion as an aqueous solution. The same fundamentals are used when testing for a chloride anion. If a chloride anion…
solution, because it is the source of the Grignard reagent. Because the halide cannot be eliminated, the next best option is to minimize the amount of halide in the reaction. In this experiment, a small concentration of the halide is reacted with a high concentration of magnesium to ensure maximum contact between halides and magnesium. To do this, magnesium will be placed in the round bottom flask and then halides are slowly added. Another potential source of error is that Grignard reagents must…
