Calcium chloride-water
Calcium chloride has a consistency of salt, they are white little flake and particles. calcium chloride at room temperature is a solid, it is used for dust control it has a generic formula of
CaCl2(H2O. When calcium chloride is exposed and mix with water and other compounds , a large amount of heat is liberated from this mixture. which can cause sputtering and boiling like a hot boiling pot, at that stage it is a very hot process it also produces gases that can be harmful to breath. The end result is a product of this reaction is calcium hydroxide and chlorine gas.
Ammonium chloride-water
Ammonium chloride is a acid-forming salt, that can form a white or colourless crystalline powder substance
When combined Sodium Bicarbonate and Hydrochloric Acid, Carbon Dioxide is produced. The two chemicals do not undergo a change in color but a chemical change when CO2 is produced.
In the experiment “White Before Your Eyes” four various white powders were experimented on using various liquids (baking soda, cornstarch, sugar and a mystery powder). The purpose of this experiment was to discover what powder/mixture of powders the substance was.

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.
In a chemistry stockroom, a vial of an Unknown White Compound was found. In order to properly dispose of the substance, the substance has to be identified .The possible compounds has been limited to one of 15 different compounds. Also, approximately 5 grams of the Unknown White Compound (UWC) were available for testing. In order to determine the properties of the compound, a series of tests was conducted. These tests included a ph test, a conductivity test, a flame test, a sulfate test, a halide test, an ammonium test, a solubility test, and a carbonate test. Using the results of these experiments, it was hypothesized that the UWC is potassium chloride. To further confirm the hypothesis, a synthesis of potassium chloride was conducted.
Unknown white compound (823U) was discovered in the lab. In order to dispose of it correctly, the substance and its physical and chemical properties had to be identified. The unknown white compound was one of a list of 15 compounds. 5g of the unknown compound were given in order to correctly identify and discover its physical and chemical properties. In order to do so, a solubility test, a flame test, and ion tests were conducted. From the results of these initial tests and the given list of compounds, the unknown white compound was thought to be composed of sodium and a halide (I-, Br-, or Cl-). Of the list, NaCl was the appropriate compound, however NaC2H3O3 was also tested out of skepticism. To verify the identity of the substance, the solubility and flame tests were performed again along with a pH test. The pH tests of NaCl and NaC2H3O2 did not match that of the unknown white compound. The list of compounds had been entirely ruled out. The identity of the unknown white compound was revealed to be calcium chloride. To synthesize at least a gram (calculated to produce 1.2g) of CaCl2, the following reaction was completed.
What is the percentage yield of the reaction of iron and copper chloride when steel wool and copper chloride dehydrate are used as reactions?
| After hydrochloric acid is added the mg reacts violently with bubbles and heat. Left over is a clear residue.
1. Place a small amount of wax from a birthday candle into a test tube. Heat gently over a burner flame until the wax melts completely; then allow
Purpose of this experiment was to find the amount and percent of water in a hydrated salt. Also, to successfully determine percent error and standard deviation. Hydrated salts are substances that occur naturally who usually contain an amount of water molecules chemically bonded to the compound. A few hydrated salts have weak bonds within the water molecules which allows heat to remove the water molecules creating an anhydrous salt. Hydrated salts that lose water molecules to the atmosphere without a heat source are known as efflorescent. Salts that readily absorb water are called deliquescent. An example of an anhydrous salt would be Magnesium Sulfate or also known as Epsom Salt. Epsom salt separates under heating and becomes
The purpose of this experiment was to identity, analyze and synthesize an unknown white compound. The identity of the unknown compound was determined by a flame and ion test to identify the cation and anion present in the compound. To confirm the identity, an ammonium test and conductivity test was conducted. After, the unknown compound, which was identified as Calcium(II)Nitrate, was synthesized in an acid-base reaction between Nitric Acid and Calcium Carbonate. The increments used were done so in order to obtain a theoretical yield of 1.0 gram of Ca(NO3)2.
What Is The Unknown White Compound By Alexander Medina Lab Partners Maxwell Yurs, Eugene Floersch, Mesih Harri Abstract A white compound is found, but its identity is unknown.
The goal of this experiment was to determine the empirical formula for a hydrate of magnesium sulfate and water. The technique that was used was measure the mass of the hydrate and then apply heat to evaporate the water. Then determine the mass of water that was in the hydrate and the mass of the remaining magnesium sulfate. The equation for the hydrate is determined by calculating the mole to mole ratio of the water and the anhydrous. The resulting formula will be formated as: MgSO4*_H2O
After putting the CH2Cl2 to a beaker containing the drying agent anhydrous sodium sulfate, a sticky white solid was recovered.
Purpose: To create chalk (calcium carbonate) and to find the percentage yield in order to see the amounts of anhydrous sodium carbonate and calcium chloride were used up. Also to see if there’s any alterations like mass differentials.
