Inflation Of Airbags Lab Report

This gas may cause temporary blindness and inflammation of the nose and throat of the victim. A gas mask would easily offer good protection against this gas. This chemical and any chemical with bromide were quite popular during World War I since it was easily brewed.

Also depicted in this paper is the type of cancers caused by each chemical and other related health problems associated with each chemical. Finally, the role of government agencies such as FDA, EPA and OSHA in preventing excessive amount or zero amounts of toxic chemicals from entering the environment will be discussed. The last paragraphs will enumerate the inferred conclusion from my research on Agent Orange, DDT and Benzene.

The goal of this lab was to determine the amount of grams of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) required to produce enough CO2 gas to completely fill the lab and also how many Alka-Seltzer tablets that would equate to. This was done by collecting CO2 gas by inverting a buret and submerging it under water in order to calculate the volume of CO2 released from a fragment of Alka-Seltzer tablet. The main component of Alka-Seltzer is sodium bicarbonate, used to neutralize excess stomach acid during illness through the following reaction that generates CO2:

The moment an Alka-Seltzer tablet hits water, it begins to fizz. These tablets are over-the-counter antacids and pain relief medications that contain aspirin, sodium bicarbonate, and citric acid. The fizzing is a result of a reaction occurring where carbon dioxide (in the form of bubbles), water, and sodium acetate is formed. The fizzing and carbon dioxide bubbles are a result of the sodium bicarbonate splitting and reacting with the citric acid. In this experiment we are determining the percent by mass of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) in Alka-Seltzer tablets and exploring the relationship between amounts of reactants and products.

The chemicals inhaled nare arsenic, ammonia, hydrogen cyanide,many of these have been proven toxic or have been proven to cause

According to research, once the chemicals are released into the air, water, or the soil, it can cause a decline in health, which can possibly result in death. About three quarters of the chemicals that comes out

In science a few days ago we made chemical rockets. That reacted with vinegar and baking soda. The chemical property that we invested was the chemical property of reactivity. We put 10mL of vinegar in the 30mL film canister. It made a couple of changes it fizzled, it raised, and made a pop sound when it exploded. The types of matter that is reacting are compounds baking soda is NaHCO3 vinegar is CH3COOH.

The thousands of volunteers and federal workers who are cleaning up oil that has already weathered and lost many of its most toxic volatile compounds may still be exposed to toxins — particularly if they remove protective gear or do not have sufficient training in handling toxic substances

Poor air quality and breathing in the dry residues from toxigenic organisms can cause multiple health concerns. This material has the potential to create havoc in many ways.

“Chemical hazards pose an external or internal physiological threat to one or more parts of the human body. This hazard can cause both short/long term health and physical effects depending on route of entry, toxicity, amount and duration of exposure” (Haight, 2012, p. 60).

How much baking soda, added to 10mL of vinegar, will cause a film canister rocket to shoot the furthest? My hypothesis was that 7mL of baking soda would make the lid shoot the furthest because there would be enough room for the gas to build up and enough baking soda to power it. I was observing the chemical property of reactivity between two compounds, baking soda (NaHCO3) and vinegar (CH3COOH). This was a chemical change because a gas and an odor were produced. The reactants were NaHCO3 and CH3COOH and the products were CO2 (carbon dioxide), H2O (water), Na (sodium) and Ch3COO. The independent variable was the amount of baking soda and the dependent variable was how far the lid traveled.

During the science experiment, we thought we did a pretty good job on most of the things required, we had all measurements done as accurately as we could, with all of the sodas that we had exploded with the salt. Most of our data were in the same number range and the sizes of the balloons were similar in size. The experiments were all conducted the same with all the sodas and all of our data was accurate. Some of our weaknesses were that holding the balloon while putting the salt it was a bit of a pain because some of the salt fell out of the balloon rather than just going in to create a chemical reaction. We can compare our project to the one with baking soda used to make a brownie because they had to make a brownie and see the actual chemical

According to Plog and Quinlan (2012) they state that each and every time an industrial hygienist works with a chemical, the industrial hygienist needs to understand the hazards posed by the chemical in order to perform a proper risk assessment. The industrial hygienist possibly will discover that the material is flammable, or explosive, or may react with common substances such as water or air. Another

This gas can decompose to produce Na (Sodium Metal) and N2 (Nitrogen Gas) at a temperature of 300o C.3 SiO2 and KNO3 are in place to remove the sodium metal by turning it into a harmless material.3 This occurs when the potassium nitrate reacts with sodium and results in potassium oxide, sodium oxide, and additional nitrogen gas.3 This additional nitrogen gas from the second reaction also fills the airbag.3 Silicate glass is produced in the final reaction when the metal oxides react with silicon dioxide.3 All of these series of reactions allow for an airbag to inflate within milliseconds and give it the ability to prevent further injury or

Similar health risks and first aid procedure as for sodium carbonate and bicarbonate but this chemical is very
