Double Displacement Reaction Lab

Abstract

Introduction
This lab revolves around precipitate it reactions. The precipitate reactions happen when it had cations (positive atoms) and anions (negative atoms) in aqueous solutions combined to form an insoluble ionic solid, which is called a participate. In order for these reactions to occur they must be Aqueous and this can be determined by using solubility rules. Predicting these reactions a sign test to find out which ions are present in a solution. Double displacement reactions are the kinds used in this lab. This means that the compound will switch partners and form a bond with a different part. The reaction occurs in Aquarious solution and one of the products that is formed is in soluble.
Example: CdSO4(aq) + K2S(aq) >> CdS(s) + K2SO4(aq)
Both reactants are soluble and one of the products is a solid. A soluble substances dissolves with water but an insoluble substance doesn't. In a solution, which is a homogenous mixture of two or more substances, one will have a solvent and solute. The solvent …show more content…

The solutions of the tests done on the software can be found in table 1. Choose the top pop up experiment menu. The purpose of the software will be to practice identifying a noon's. From the experiment menu, click the type of unknown that needs to start. Choose the one positive ion option. When chosen, a picture of a solid will be seen: the unknown cation with the nitrate anion. This will also show the results of putting the solid into water. To save the treated sample, click on one of the seven saved samples slots in the upper right. To delete the treated simple click on the trashcan. Make saved sample an active the sample by clicking on it. Only complete compounds can be added, for example, if one wanted to add XS OHI- to the active sample, click on the NaI+, XSOHI-, and then ADD. Record each reaction in the table as either a soluble or insoluble solution and record any
