Baking Soda Lab Report

How does the mass of the baking soda affect the volume of carbon dioxide released in its decomposition?

Suppose a household product label says it contains NaHCO3. How would you test this material for the presence of sodium bicarbonate?

When calcium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and phenol red are put into a bag and mixed up the type of reaction that occurs is a chemical reaction for the following reasons. Things that indicate that a chemical reaction has occurred are color change, formation of precipitate, formation of gas, and energy transfer in which three of them took place in the reaction of calcium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and phenol red. The three indicators in this experiment were: a color change, formation of gas, and an energy transfer

Formulas for compounds can be written as empirical or molecular formulas where empirical formulas are the simplest formula of a compound and a molecular formula is the actual, or true, formula of a compound. These are the same form in ionic compounds, but may differ in covalent. For example, in Benzene, a covalent

A mixture, unlike a compound, can be separated by physical means. There are multiple ways in which a mixture can be separated; furthermore, the ways it can be separated is based on what the mixture is made up of.

H2o co2 and h2co3 help in the dissolution of limestone and which produces bi carbonate which helps in the forming of caves and landscapes.

This paper describes the methods used in the identification, investigation of properties, and synthesis of an unknown compound. The compound was identified as calcium nitrate by a variety of tests. When the compound was received, it was already known to be one of twelve possible ionic compounds. The flame test identified the presence of the calcium anion in the compound. The compound tested positive for the nitrate cation using the iron sulfate test. At this point it was hypothesized that the compound was calcium nitrate. Reactivity tests and quantitative analysis comparing the unknown compound with calcium nitrate supported this hypothesis. Synthesis reactions were then carried out and analyzed.

sodium bicarbonate- chemical compound with the formula NaHCO₃. It is a salt composed of sodium ions and bicarbonate ions. Sodium bicarbonate is a white solid that is crystalline but often appears as a fine powder.

This is done through a change in temperature. Over time, two objects that are in direct contact will

- An inorganic compound does not contain both carbon and hydrogen but an organic compound does.

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.

The data shows that Sucrose, Substance A, and Substance F are molecular compounds and that Sodium Chloride, Substance D, and Substance E are ionic compounds. The type of each compound was determined by the physical properties of the substances and how well they matched up with the properties of ionic and molecular compounds. According to “What properties distinguish ionic compounds form covalent compounds?” by Fred Senese, ionic compounds “conduct electricity when dissolved in water” and the melting points are “usually very

I wanted to remind you about your Chemical Naming Quiz tomorrow. Make sure you have studied how to name covalent and ionic compounds. Also be sure that you look over your polyatomic ions in order to name the ionic compounds that are not binary. The format will be exactly like the practice quiz that you took on Monday. There is blank version and the answer key on Canvas if you need to reference it. Please don't hesitate to email me if you have

The soda ash form experiment 3 was obtained. A 250 ml beaker was obtained and rinsed.

The biggest challenge for early researchers was figuring out how to make coal “clean” and exactly what sort of process could be easily replicated without harming any more of Earth’s valuable resources. Scientists after many tests, found more than one way of making coal
