6.03 Calorimetry Lab Report Conclusion

The results showed the molarity of the NaOH solution. This experiment was completed twice and a new average molarity

The purpose of this lab is to figure out the mass percentage of copper in a penny. Furthermore, by doing this lab we will practice using a spectrophotometer and review the names of equipment such as volumetric glassware, pipets, and volumetric flasks.

Use approximately 2 feet of aluminum foil to wrap around the burner stand and beaker to minimize heat loss.

The purpose of this lab is to separate a mixture and determine the percentages of each of the ingredients. Each substance will have a different boiling point due to its intrinsic properties and from that, we will be able to determine the purity of different products as we evaporate off the next level of product.

To prepare a quantitative solution, you need to know the weight of the substance and the quantity of the solution. For example, you have 40 grams of NaOH (Sodium Oxide) in 1000mL of water. The amount of water and weight of the substance makes a Mole. one mole is equal to 1000mL of water and 40 grams of NaOH and varies by the amount of water you have but the weight of the substance must also change. To make a correct solution, you need to know the atomic mass of the substance and how much water you have in mL or L. If there are multiple elements, you need to add the combined weight of all elements (EX. NaOH= 23+16+1+40 grams.) and then divide the weight by the mass. To make a solution, you should use a beaker or flask that can measure at least

First, all of the equipment was obtained and placed on the table. The necessary equipment was weighed using a top loader balance, which used grams as its unit of measurement. The test tube, which held the samples, was filled with water from a plastic squirt bottle. A piece of filter paper, which had been folded several times, was placed over a funnel over an Erlenmeyer flask to filter the mixture in the test tube. The test tube mixture was poured onto the filter paper.

made supported one another. For instance, we observed that the red powder turned black when heat was applied, therefore Oxygen from

Purpose: To become familiar with the International System of Units and common laboratory equipment and techniques. To learn how to determine volume, mass, length, and temperature of a wide variety of items. To learn how to calculate density and concentration of dilutions.

Introduction Calorimetry is the measurement of heat absorbed or released during a chemical reaction, and in this experiment calorimetry is used to measure the amount of calories in a variety of snack foods. This is related to the saturated fat content of said snack foods. The experiment is done by setting an apparatus to burn each piece of food under a soda can full of water, this is called soda can calorimetry. A unique setup was used to determine the caloric content in each snack food. The foods used were tortilla corn chips, Lays potato chips, Cheetos Puffs, and Doritos.

Identifying an unknown substance can be accomplished with the use of multiple scientific tests, which help narrow down the possibilities of the unknown compound. The unknown substance that I was given was unknown number A84841BIR, and posed to be a real challenge since I needed to test two different molecular combinations for this specific substance. Once the number of moles in substance was calculated using the ideal gas law, I divided it from the sample mass number after heating and obtained that the molarity of my unknown chemical was 58.93 g/mol. To find my molecular formula I calculated the mass of each element, then the moles, lastly I took the smallest whole-number ratio. Using the molarity calculated I was able to do some research to get a better understanding about what my unknown chemical could possibly be. Once I’ve collected all my data together and strenuously researched the web for articles relating to understanding Infa-Red spectroscopy, I should be able to make an educated guess upon what my unknown solution could be.

3: Using a graduated cylinder, measure 50 ML of vinegar. Pour the vinegar into a second plastic cup.

Lab Report 1 Introduction: The experiment was about creating solutions of standard molarity and measuring concentrations. Solutions were made up of two parts, the solute and the solvent. The solvent was the dissolving substance and the solute was the substance being dissolved. Concentrations are based on how much solute is in a solvent, and is reported by the units of molarity.

Purpose: To demonstrate the treatment steps that a typical municipal water treatment plant utilize, which include coagulation, sedimentation, and filtration, to filter and disinfect to comply with the EPA’s standards when entering distribution system and our homes. Materials: 500 mL of turbid surface water (contains 600 mg/L clay) 500 L glass beaker 10 mL glass beaker 10 mL graduated cylinder 6 mL concentrated ferric chloride (FeCl3, 4000 mg/L) stirring rod turbidimeter Method: Collect 500 mL of tap water to the 500 mL glass beaker.

Calorimetry is the science of measuring the change in heat absorbed or released during a chemical reaction. The change in heat can tell us if the reaction is either exothermic - it released or heat into surroundings, or endothermic - it absorbed heat from surroundings. The device used to measure calorimetry is a calorimeter. A calorimeter can range from very expensive lab ones to coffee styrofoam cups but they are all tightly sealed in order to prevent heat from escaping.

The purpose of this lab was to investigate the amount of sugar in carbonated beverages by using the density of solutions, and also to create a standard curve with the percent sugar in sugar solutions.
