Laboratory Report Lab 9 Mole Ratios Mass of silver nitrate Mass of copper wire (initial) Observations Reaction of copper and silver nitrate Mass of filter paper (step 10) Mass of leftover copper wire Appearance of leftover copper wire Mass of filter paper plus silver (step 21) 1. Calculate the mass and moles of copper wire that reacted in this experiment. 2. Calculate the mass and moles of silver metal produced in the reaction. 3. Determine the mole ratio the ratio of the number of moles of silver to the number of moles of copper. Note: Round the result to the nearest whole number. 4. Use the silver/copper mole ratio to write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction of copper and silver nitrate.
5. Did all of the silver nitrate react in this experiment? Calculate the percent yield of silver based on the amount of AgNO 3 used in the experiment and explain your reasoning. 6. What factors might account for the answer to Question 5? 7. Throughout the lab you may notice you are adding water, but not carefully measuring how much water you are adding (about 30 mL in step 3, some more in step 11 for example). Does it matter if the water is measured out accurately? Why or why not? 8. The lab procedure asks you to use distilled water. A common error in this lab is the use of tap water in the procedure. Why do you suppose this is an important aspect of this lab?
