The hypothesis is correct. Potassium chloride mixed with silver nitrate creates a white precipitate. Barium

* Copper, gold and aluminum are all alloyed with other metals to make them harder.

We then proceeded in testing for excess Ca2+ by adding two drops of .5 M K2C2O4 to test tube two and attentively observed to see if a precipitate formed, which it did. This meant that Ca2+ was in excess and C2O42- was the limiting reactant in the original salt mixture. We then cleaned up. Upon returning to our next class, we took the filter paper, with the precipitate on it, and took its mass.

The students created a macroscopic, three-dimensional (3D) model of several properties of the periodic table. They explained in their own words the following terms: atomic radii, ionic radii, first ionization energy, and electronegativity. Lastly, they identified, described, and explained the patterns observed in the 3D periodic tables for the following element properties: atomic radii, ionic radii, first ionization energy, and electronegativity.

The two most obvious formation of the precipitate were the combinations with the MgSO4. The MgSO4 and NH3 solution became very opaque and the MgSO4 and Na2CO3 turned from liquid to a full solid white substance. The Na2CO3 and CH3COOH did not have as strong of a reaction, however, the precipitates were able to be visualized with in the clear

solutions using qualitative analysis techniques. 1 Silver (Ag + ) and lead (Pb 2+ ) created a solution of

In reference to the analysis of anions, Table 1 shows that a precipitate was formed when our unknown was combined with HNO3 and AgNO3, thus indicating the presence of a chloride ion. Because our unknown did not form a precipitate due to HCl and BaCl2, separate, effervesce, or smell, we concluded that neither sulfate, nitrate, carbonate nor

weak bases). After ranking the pH of these solutions, you will then test your predictions in the laboratory.

In the nucleus of an atom there are protons and neutrons the number of protons and neutrons depends on the element and ,if it is an isotope of that element. E.g. carbon 12, carbon 12 has six neutrons six protons and 6 electrons . Electrons are located around the nucleus of the atom. Electrons are in shells, the shell closest to the nucleus is 1 , the one after 2 and so on. Each shell can only hold up to a certain number of electrons . the first can hold up to 2 , the second 8 (2+6) the third up to 18 (2+6+10). The general formula for finding out how many electrons a shell can hold is 2n^2. Electrons have a negative charge , while protons have a positive and neutrons have no charge. A atom has the same number of protons and electrons. An ion is formed when an atom loses or gains a electrons .

By first measuring the pH levels of solution A through E with a pH meter, it gives a numeric reading to ph balance to a solution. Next, add in a natural indicator called anthocyanin made from the pigment from a red cabbage into each solution and mixed it until there is a distinct color and recorded on the chart. Finally, by looking at the result of the pH reading level that

Spectrophotometers are quite precise instruments allowing for five significant figures to be obtained. The major source of error in this lab is how small the concentration of the reagents are.

19. Stir the solution with a toothpick and observe any changes. Measure the pH of the new solution and record into Table 2.

The purpose of this lab was for the student to get involved with his or hers new lab kit as well as being able to know, identify and use each other tools provided in the kit. Another key learning aspect of this lab is to teach the student how to measure properly the many units in the SI system. I will be using laboratory dilutions, measurements, and weights to then calculate using algebraic formula.

During a titration the pH of the solution will be monitored using a pH meter from that we get a titration curve. The titration curve is then used to determine the equivalent molecular weight and Ka value of the unknown weak acid, from that we are

For generating valuable data with a desired accuracy and to quantify concentration of the constituents present in the samples being analyzed.
