Discussion The findings in this lab show that the melting point of Alum is 92.5 degrees Celsius. During the first trial a temperature of 91.0 degrees Celsius was recorded, but during the second trial a temperature of 93.0 degrees Celsius was found. Averaging the two temperatures gives a total around 92.0. The literature melting point of Alum is said to be 92.5 degrees Celsius and the data from similar studies, such as, Chemistry 103: Synthesis of Alum, together show that the results from the…
The purpose of this lab was to identify the amount of salt needed in the water to “flink”, the point at which an object sinks or floats, the golf ball in a salt solution. Flinking occurs when the object is neither sinking or floating, it appears as if it is suspended in the middle of the solution. To flink an object, the object’s density has to have the same as the density of the solution that it is placed into. To achieve the same density of both the salt solution and golf ball, manipulation of…
non-acidic oxygen compounds (Retrieved from Chemistry of Petrochemical Processes, 2nd Edition, 2001). C .Asphlathenes It is organometallic compounds and inorganic salts (metallic compounds). Mostly sodium, calcium, magnesium, aluminium, iron, vanadium, nickel are present either as inorganic salts, such as sodium and magnesium chlorides, or in the form of organometallic compounds, such as those of nickel and vanadium (as in porphyrins). It is harmful and corrosive and should be removed (Lewis…
Introduction: Leaf Disk float in water alone. When a solution consisting of a small amount of sodium bicarbonate is added to the water it causes the leaf disk to sink. As photosynthesis continues in the leaf disk it releases oxygen and causes the leaf disk to rise. While cellular respiration is occurring also the rate that the disk raise is an in implicit measurement of the net rate of photosynthesis. The independent variable in this lab is the solution and the light because it can be…
with a watch glass. The solution was stirred until the acetanilide was dissolved. The flask was brought to the hood and 7.0g of pyridinium tribromide was added and then stirred for about 30 minutes with a watch glass as a cover. While stirring, 10% sodium bisulfite was added in 1ml increments until the orange/red color disappeared or was less intense. After, the solution was cooled in an ice water bath. Once crystals formed, the solution was filtered using a funnel. The product was then…
1. Which analytical balance is the more accurate? Why? 2. Which piece of glassware is best at measuring the density of water? 3. What two aspects of the data set you cited in Question 1 define it as “best”? 4. What does “standard deviation” measure? 5. (a) Calculate the standard deviation of the data set you labeled as having the least random error in the first experiment with pure water. (b) Calculate the standard deviation of the data set you labeled as having the MOST random error in the…
It is important to note that the goal of this experiment was to find the pKa value of bromothymol blue, a pH indicator commonly used in titrations. [UNC, 2017] The pKa is where the number of moles of acid to conjugated base are equivalent. To find this, both Beer’s Law and spectroscopy were utilized in an attempt to make graphs to show just where this value occurred. According to Sigma-Aldrich, the pKa of bromothymol blue is approximately 7.10. [SIGMA, 2017] The final pKa found experimental was…

First, 1.32 g of isoborneol was mixed with 1.00 mL of glacial acetic acid. The solution was heated to 50° C while 1.70 mL of NaOCl added. Then 15.0 mL of NaOCl was measured into a separatory funnel and added dropwise to the solution for 10 minutes. The flask was sealed while heating and stirring continued. NaOCl in the solution was tested every five minutes using starch-iodide paper for 30 minutes. After 10 minutes, 2.0 mL of NaOCl was added. A total of 6.0 mL of NaOCl was added over a 20 minute…
exhibits physical properties without undergoing any changes in its chemical composition. Different materials have different melting points and thus, they can be identified with ease. Clearly, it was observed that the residue comprised a combination of sodium bicarbonate extracts once the ether had evaporated from the hood. How to Remove Water that was dissolved in Diethyl Ether Water that was dissolved in diethyl ether can be removed using a commercial drying agent such as MgSO4 salt. The…
