Limiting Reagent Lab Report

The number of moles of ascorbic acid neutralized in the experiment is given by multiplying the moles of NaOH used (0.00235128 mol) by the unit conversion coefficient (1 mol ascorbic acid/1 mol NaOH).

Solutions of 6M H2SO4, 6M NH3, 6M HCl, 6M NaOH, and 1.0 M of NaCl, 1M Fe(NO3)3, 1M NiSO4, 1M AgNO3, 1M KSCN, 1M Ba(NO3)2, and 1M Cu(NO3)2 were given in separate test tubes. The color of possible precipitates, ions, acid-base behaviour, odor and solubility rules were conducted and were reported in Table 1. The key information about a mixture of two solutions was

The purpose of this lab was to identify unknown bacteria cultures using various differential tests, and my unknown bacteria is #17. The identification of these unknown cultures was accomplished by separating and differentiating possible bacteria based on specific biochemical characteristics. Whether the tests performed identified specific enzymatic reactions or metabolic pathways, each was used in a way to help recognize those specifics and identify the unknown cultures. The differential tests used to identify the unknown cultures were Gram stain, Catalase, Mannitol Salt Agar (MSA), Blood Agar, Novobiocin, Coagulase, and DNAse (Alachi, 2007).

The purpose of this experiment is to prepare a Grignard reagent by reacting with alkyl or aryl halide and to ultimately react the Grignard reagent with carbon dioxide in order to produce carboxylate. The formed carboxylate is then protonated with an acid to produce carboxylic acid that could be used with liquid-liquid extraction to isolate the unknown acid from the other products from side reactions. The final unknown product is identified by measuring the melting point and calculating the molecular weight obtained from titration.

The process was then repeated for the second reaction but using 1.00-mL of a 6.00-M phosphoric acid solution and 4.00-mL of a 3.00-M sodium hydroxide solution.

In this lab an attempt was made to determine the concentration of a Ba(OH)2 solution by using the conductimetrically determined equivalence point of the reaction between Ba(OH)2 and H2SO4 and by gravimetric determination. The molarity using the equivalence point was determined to be 0.076 M, with a percent error of 24% (actual value was 0.100 M). The molarity using gravimetric determination was 0.0835, an error of 17%. One possible error is the presence of bubbles in the buret. Bubbles would have caused the buret reading to be too high, resulting in a larger equivalence point. Another possible error deals with the colloidal nature of barium hydroxide due to its relatively low solubility. The colloidal barium hydroxide would make it

Experiment to investigate the amount of sodium hydroxide needed to neutralize the solution of vinegar

A potential set-up was prepared wherein the 25 x 150 mm test tube was filled with K2SO4 (30mL, 0.15 mol) saturated at 0 °C in 5M H2SO4. The test tube was immersed in ice, power supply was adjusted to give the solution a current of ~3.0 amps. Current was read and recorded as accurately a possible, as well as the time over which electrolysis was carried out. K2S2O8 precipitated over a period of 45-50 minutes during which the temperature was maintained close to 0 °C (~8 °C or lower) during electrolysis.

The limiting reactant lab was constructed to provide a better understanding of precipitation reactions, by using filtration techniques. Also, it was created to help determine the limiting reactants in a solution, and to calculate theoretical and percent yield. Within the experiment two metal salts were prepared. Part A formed the precipitation of cobalt (II) carbonate, while Part B formed the precipitation of nickel (II) phosphate. The experiment concluded, the calculated theoretical yields of 0.120 g for CoCO3 and 0.184 g for Ni3(PO4)2.

3. Calculate the total heat released in each reaction, assuming that the specific heat of the solution is the same as for pure water (4.18J/gK). Use q=mcΔT. Show work here and record your answer in Data Table 2.

Reactants that are not use up when the reaction is finished are defined as the excess reagents. On the other hand, reactants that is completely used up or reacted is called the limiting reagent, because its quantity limit the amount of products formed.

In a chemical experiment when two substances are reacting, one reactant will be consumed first then the other one and it will be call Limiting reactant. “The limiting reactant is a reactant in a chemical reaction that determines the amount of product produced” (Helmenstine). This is the substance that controls the results, depending on the amount that it can produce it’s going to be determinate how far the chemical reaction can go. The Percent Yield gives the amount of product that could possibly be produced in a given reaction. Percent yield measures how efficient the reaction is under certain conditions.” Percent yield measures how efficient the reaction is under certain conditions” (Boundless). To find the Percent Yield, we have to calculate

(5 pts) List and explain the names and affiliations of the various characters/stakeholders in this story – I’m looking for us to use the story to map out the complexities that are generally associated with solving public health puzzles – the stakeholders you list and explain here should apply to many of the cases we consider going forward.

This experiment was performed to determine the heat of neutralization between Hydrogen chloride (HCl) and Sodium hydroxide (NaOH). A temperature probe was used to measure the temperature of the reaction when the base (NaOH) was poured into the acid (HCl). The data was collected on logged on LoggerPro.

Sodium hydrogen carbonate was added to the solution until it becomes neutral. Ph paper was used for this test to determine its ph value.
