REFLECTIONS FOR LAB 4- FRICTION Lab 4.1 to 4.3 is about all the different frictions. We did 3 different labs. 4.1 was pulling a block across different surfaces and finding the difference in friction. 4.2 was about pulling multiple blocks across different surfaces and finding the difference in friction. 4.3 was about pulling blocks but in a bigger surfaces area. In Lab 4.1 we had to pull different blocks across different surfaces. The surfaces were a tabletop, wax paper, paper towel, fine…

Observe • Learn how to utilize and understand the functioning of the pH meter. • To find a stoichiometric point using a functional graphical method. • To discern the molar concentration of a specific weak acid solution. • To compute the molar mass of a specific weak acid utilized within the experiment. • To calculate the pKa of a weak concentrated acid within the experiment. Procedure 1. Molar Concentration of a Weak Acid Solution • Obtain an unknown acid solution (90 mL) and three 250 mL…

1. The color of Max’s urine tells Tracy what the concentration is because the darker the urine color, the more concentrated it is. The clearer it is, the less concentrated it is. Urine pigment correlates with specific gravity because the more concentrated (darker) a urine sample is, the higher the specific gravity will be as well. 2. Based on the urine color and specific gravity, Tracey is able to conclude Max’s hydration status during the different recorded stages. Before he exercises, Max’s…

This week's reflection assignment consists of one video. It features Mr. Larry Potterfield (founder, and CEO of Midway USA) as the presenter. The video is titled "Gunsmithing: How to properly polish the metal parts on a Remington 700". Mr. Potterfield begins his first video by stating the objective, polishing metal parts. In his hands, he holds the barrel of a Remington 700 series rifle. It appears as if the rifle has definitely seen some cleaner days, in my opinion. This is a skill every…

As you can see, the data recovered from this experiment is very unusual. This is the interpretation and analysis the experiment regarding the cleaning power of the chlorine bleach produced by Clorox and laundry detergent produced by Oxiclean. This interpretation is essential to understand the data and how effective each of the independent variables in this experiment are. As an analysis, there were many key points that made this data relevant. Regarding the coffee, both of the cleaners did quite…

A graduated cylinder was used to measure 200mL of distilled water into an Erlenmeyer flask and then 40mL of 0.6 M NaOH was added to the distilled water in the flask. The flask was then plugged with a rubber stopper and shook in order to mix the solution. A buret was then washed, rinsed with distilled water, and then 5 mL of the NaOH diluted solution. After the cleansing of the buret, it was then filled up with the NaOH diluted solution. The dilution of the solution was calculated to find the…

With the acid, HCl, the pH of the tap water went from 7 to 1.5 after 30 drops, indicating that the concentration of hydrogen ions increased significantly. With the base, NaOH, the pH of the tap water changed from 7 to 12 after 30 drops, indicating that the concentration of of hydrogen ions decreased significantly. These changes occurred in the tap water because there are no chemical buffers present in water. In the potato homogenate, when 30 drops of HCl were added the pH changed from 6 to 3.5…

Acidic rain plays a key role in how rapidly things erode and die in our environment whether people notice it or not. Many are uneducated on this topic which makes it more dangerous to us and our surroundings. Not only can this toxic water effect trees and animals, but also buildings, statues, and even cars (webprojects.edu, 1). Acid rain is something humans should be concerned about in the twenty-first century due to our advancements in technology. The majority of the United States suffer from…

Throughout this acid, base and buffer lab, this will allow each individual to gain an enhanced sense of knowledge of how these different aqueous solutions work as a buffer system or how they are unable to perform as buffer system mixed with two solutions together. This can be identified through the colour change to measure pH behaviour in several aqueous solutions, therefore the different factors that will cause the change of pH. This will gain understanding of how this relates to the biological…

Josie Nadaud CHM 144L-A Professor Jessa/TA Jess October 8, 2015 Experiment 5 Partial Formal Report Methods 1. Traditional titration with indicator dye (week one) First the 50mL buret was cleaned by filling it with distilled water and letting it empty three separate times. It was further cleaned by coating the inside with 5 to 10 mL of the 0.0468M NaOH titrant solution and emptying that into the waste beaker as well for three repetitions. 40.0 mL of 7-Up soda was diluted with 60.0 mL of…
