Sodium thiosulfate

Summary: Put on any necessary personal safety equipment, and one person from each team should collaborate with people from other teams to create the NaOH solution. The other team members should focus on setting up the buret by rising it with distilled water as well as building the titration apparatus and preparing the HCl solution. In order to prepare the NaOH solution, first take some solid NaOH and measure its mass. Then get a 250 mL volumetric flask and fill it about halfway with distilled…

In this experiment the molarity of ammonia is calculated using the process of titration. A chemical reaction occurs when two or more substances change to form different molecules. In each reaction there are ratios between each reactants. Certain amounts of each reactant are needed to fully complete the chemical reaction. Stoichiometry is the relationship between the quantities of the reactants. An acid is a substance that reacts and donates H+ ions. A base is a substance that accepts H+ ions. An…

Soap and Detergent Soap and Detergent are the cornerstones of human cleanliness. Soap is, “a substance used with water for washing and cleaning, made of a compound of natural oils or fats with sodium hydroxide or another strong alkali, and typically having perfume and coloring added”( Soap 2018 ). Detergent is, “ a water-soluble cleansing agent that combines with impurities and dirt to make them more soluble and differs from soap in not forming a scum with the salts in hard water” ( Detergent…

water to make a light bulb shine? It sounds crazy, but it's true! This is because salt water is a good conductor of electricity. Salt molecules are made of sodium ions and chlorine ions. (An ion is an atom that has an electrical charge because it has either gained or lost an electron.) When you put salt in water, the water molecules pull the sodium and chlorine ions apart so they are floating freely. These ions are what carry electricity through water. What happens is the solution of the water…

Discussion of results: Multiple tests were done in order to identify and then confirm the identity of an unknown substance. The tests done to identify the compound included preliminary tests, solubility tests, and testing for anions and cations. In order to confirm the identity found, reactivity tests were then completed. The first test performed was a preliminary test that simply showed that the unknown compound was a powdery, white solid with no smell. A qualitative solubility test was…

In this experiment, qualitative analysis was used to identify two cations. Lead was identified in Part A, barium was identified in Part B and different flame colors were observed with various metal chloride solutions in Part C. Formula unit, total ionic, and net ionic equations were written for the confirmation reactions for both lead and barium. If this experiment was repeated, barium could be confirmed by the yellow precipitate BaCrO4 after confirming that the solution was clear and any…

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:…

skeletal muscle, the heart muscle depolarizes automatically when external stimuli are not present. This is called automaticity, which happens when the plasma membranes in heart muscle cells allow sodium to leak into the cell at a faster rate than potassium is moving across the membrane (book). The sodium moving inside the cell causes it to progressively…

The results showed that the bioluminescent bacteria was not affected by sodium chloride. They can actually survive in both fresh and saltwater. I discovered that the light intensity of the bacteria stayed between 0.02 and 0.07 lux. sodium chloride seemed to not affect the light intensity at all. In my background research I discovered that pollutants decrease light intensity of the bacteria. To learn more I use sodium chloride as my toxic pollutants and tested its effect on light intensity.…

prepare the absorbent, we will be using sodium alginate and calcium carbonate.1Sodium alginate is a common additive to foods, so there are several types. The type we will be using is called sodium;3,4,5,6-tetrahydroxy oxane-2-carboxylate. There are several sources to buy sodium alginate. However, we will buy it from Modernist Pantry, which the sodium alginate concentration has already been prepared. Before the preparation of calcium alginate itself, sodium alginate should be kept in a 39.2…
