Station one: Station one shows that when a small piece of magnesium metal is placed over the flame of the Bunsen burner, the magnesium metal ignites, giving off a bright, white light. Once the flame has extinguished itself due to the lack of fuel, the magnesium metal turned from a metallic strip to a crumbled white powder. It can be decided that station one is a combination (redox) reaction, as a new product is synthesised by the combination of two reactants. The reactants, magnesium and oxygen gas in the air bonded together to form the product of magnesium oxide. Station two: Station two shows that when a beaker full of cold water is placed over a hot candle flame, many observations take place signifying a chemical reaction, as well as a …show more content…
Although it did take some time, when red litmus paper was placed in the solution, it changed blue in colour, therefore highlighting that hydroxide ions are present in the solution. Station four can clearly be identified as a combination (redox) reaction, as a new product is synthesised by the combination of two reactants. The reactants, calcium and water combine together to form hydrogen gas and hydroxide ions. Station five: Station five shows that when zinc metal is added to a test tube containing 3mL of hydrochloric acid, many changes occur, thus highlighting that a chemical reaction has taken place. These changes include condensation, a slight heat given off, a gas given off and the formation of small white particles on the zinc metal. Station five can clearly be classified as a displacement (redox) reaction, as an element has traded places with another element in a compound. The reactants, zinc metal and hydrochloric acid react together to form hydrogen gas and zinc …show more content…
Subsequently, when the 2mL of sulphuric acid was added to the pink solution, the solution immediately returned clear in colour, therefore highlighting that the solution was acidic. Station seven can be clearly identified as a neutralisation (acid, base) reaction, as an acid and base has reacted together to form salt and water. The reactants, sodium hydroxide and sulphuric acid reacted together to produce sodium sulphate and
In the Making Maalox Chemical Reaction Lab, the six main purposes of the lab are producing the solids magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide the active ingredient in Maalox, to be able to provide visual evidence of changes in properties, to be able to observe changes in energy, noting the type or classification of chemical reaction and use balanced equations, use pH indicators to identify products as acids or bases, and lastly to explore what happens when you add an acid to a base. The reactants that we will be using are alum, ammonia in a dropper bottle, epsom salt, cabbage juice, and water. The products that we will be getting are aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, and a simple version
We repeated this for a total of 6 known substances and 3 unknown substances. We also made a table for each element showing the color of the flame that we saw,
A1.Work under the hood! With a pair of tongs, hold a strip of magnesium in a bunsen burner flame. Do not look directly at the flame. Save the ash in a small beaker for the next procedure. If magnesium is substance "A" in the general equation, what is "B"?
Procedure: In this experiment, various chemicals were mixed together, to determine a reaction. Using two drops from chemical 1 and two drops of chemical two, unless otherwise stated, then recording the type of physical reaction or color changes that occurred.
When the red Co(NO3)2*6H2O crystal was added to the white NH4 crystal, and water was added to dissolve, the solution turned blue in color. As the solution was nixed, the color changed to that of a blue-purple and a blue precipitate formed. When the 6 M NH3 began to be added, the color shifted to dark purple color after 15 mL of ammonia and the amount of the precipitate was less. After 20 mL of ammonia, the solution became a red brown with very little of the blue precipitate. After 30 mL of ammonia, the solution was similar in color to an iodine solution, a dark brown-red, almost black in color. At this point there was no visible precipitate on the surface of the solution. After 40 mL of the ammonia had been added, the solution was the same iodine like color as before. When closely examined, there was a black precipitate that had settled on the bottom of the beaker. At this point, hydrogen peroxide, 3% H2O2, was added to solution. After 4 mL of the H2O2 was added, the solution was the same color and the precipitate had not changes. After 8 mL of the H2O2, there was not noticeable change. After 12 mL of the H2O2, the solution was slightly redder in color but the precipitate had not changed. After 15 mL of H2O2, the solution was the same color and no changes had occurred to the precipitate. At 17 mL, the solution began to effervesce slightly, though there
Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to observe a variety of chemical reactions and to identify patterns in the conversion of reactants into products.
The purpose of this experiment is to examine the stoichiometric relationship between reagents and the identity of the products by using three acid/base neutralization reactions of a triprotic acid, phosphoric acid, and varying molar equivalents of sodium hydroxide. The data will be used to determine the formula weight of the products and identify the remaining salt for all three reactions.
The solution of the formed ash and the water is basic, which was shown using the pH paper where its color became blue. A chemical change occurred. It is described using the following chemical reaction:
When the zinc was dropped in the hydrochloric acid, the substance began bubbling vigorously, forming a precipitate. Eventually, the zinc dissolved completely. After the lit wooden splint broke the surface of the test tube, there was a loud popping noise. The gas that was released was hydrogen from the acid and the popping noise was a result of the Hydrogen being burned up by the fire creating a small explosion. Two chemical changes occurred in this test: one with the formation of a precipitate (a textbook sign of a chemical change), and the other when the explosion
The cations in both the known and unknown samples were identified by using qualitative analysis, of which were determined to be acidic, basic, or neutral by using litmus paper. Acid-base reactions, oxidation-reduction reactions, and the formation of complex ions are often used in a systematic way for either separating ions or for determining the presence of specific ions. When white precipitate formed after adding hydroxide, aluminum ion was determined to be present in the solution. However, nickel was determined to test positive when the solution changed to a hot pink color after adding a few drops of dimethylglyoxime reagent and iron was present when the solution was a reddish brown color when sodium hydroxide was added to the mixture at the very beginning of the experiment. Qualitative analysis determines that ions will undergo specific chemical reactions with certain reagents to yield observable products to detect the presence of specific ions in an aqueous solution where precipitation reactions play a major role. The qualitative analysis of ions in a mixture must add reagents that exploit the more general properties of ions to separate major groups of ions, separate major groups into subgroups with reactions that will distinguish less general properties, and add reagents that will specifically confirm the presence of individual
Aim: The aim of the lab “Chemical Equilibrium” is to observe the effects of changes in concentrations of products and reactants on the position of the equilibrium of given chemical reactions.
The objective of this experiment will be to combine various substances, liquids and metals, and to observe their behavior when they are combined. The types of reactions observed shall determine the nature of these reactions: physical or chemical.
