Creating Solutions Of Standard C

In six different 50mL volumetric flasks there was 0.00 mL, 2.00 mL, 4.00 mL, 6.00 mL, 8.00 mL, and 10.00mL of the 5.00 g/L Cu^(2+)stock solution. 3mL of 15M ammonia was added into each flask, once the ammonia was added each flask was diluted with water to 50 mL then were all thoroughly mixed.

Due to this fact, the concentration of copper in the solution is able to be calculated by using light absorbance. Since zinc doesn’t absorb any light, we are able to deduce that the greater the absorbance, the greater the concentration of copper.

With these absorbance numbers a concentration curve was constructed and the unknown solution was determined by finding the point of absorbance on the curve.

The purpose of this lab was to determine the empirical formula of copper oxide compound. In the lab, hydrochloric acid and copper oxide compound was mixed until it formed a blue solution. An oxidation-reduction reaction, a reaction in which there is an exchange of electrons between elements, was performed by adding zinc to the solution to displace the copper in copper chloride. Zinc, in this case, was oxidized by losing two electrons (0 → 2+) while copper was reduced by gaining two electrons (2+ → 0). Also, when the copper was displaced, it became a precipitate, which is a substance that comes out of a solution as a solid due to insolubility.

After this, the solution was poured into a volumetric flask just about to the 1dm3 line and then it was left there to cool to the same temperature as the room before filling precisely to the 1dm3 line with distilled water. The molar mass of CuSO4.5H20 was 249.5 so that means 249.5g of copper sulphate was needed to dissolve, in order to make a standard solution, into 1dm3of distilled water. Following this, a linear dilution of the CuSO4.5H2O was made in order to be used to make a calibration curve after using the colorimeter to write down the absorbance of each sample. A linear dilution is diluted with distilled water in order for it to make the concentration weaker and weaker. For this investigation, the dilutions made ranged from 0.01 to 0.1 M/l . It was essential to only make up 10cm3

The purpose of the experiment is to cycle solid copper through a series of five reactions. At different stages of the cycle, copper was present in different forms. First reaction involves reaction between the copper and nitric acid, and copper changed from elemental state to an aqueous. The second reaction converted the aqueous Cu2+ into the solid copper (2) hydroxide. In the third reaction Cu(OH)2 decomposed into copper 2 oxide and water when heated. When solid CuO reacted with sulfuric acid, the copper returned to solution as an ion (Cu2+). The cycle of reactions was completed with the reaction where elemental copper was regenerated by Zn and Cu

The Cu Later lab experiment is designed to allow you to practice lab skills in implementing and performing a series of reactions. Specifically, four types of chemical reactions will occur: oxidation/reduction; double replacement; single replacement; and decomposition. You will begin with a known amount of copper metal, which, after progressing through several steps, is reproduced. In this experiment you will observe and record the various changes such as heat, color changes, and production that occur. This procedure is used to observe some chemical reactions of copper and its compounds while also performing the lab appropriately as to retain the copper as much as

One of the most important skills to have in the chemistry lab is the understanding of how chemicals will react. Knowing for example, how a chemical will react with a metal, is an excellent way of determining the amount of a particular metal in a deposit. This knowledge was used in this lab to determine the amount of copper in an unknown sample mixture. It is also known that the determination of the percent concentration of a certain solution, will directly effect the percent transmission and absorption of a solution, dependent upon its dilution. By first testing known concentrations of a solution, and plotting this information graphically, a line is formed

-If the copper metal is submerged in the silver nitrate solution then in reaction, a pure, solid (Ag) silver product is created with an excess of (Cu (NO3)2) copper (II) aqueous liquid because a single displacement reaction occurs where the balance equation is then

Before the synthesis of the Copper Iodine Compound, the identities provided (CuNO3)2 and Nal weighed 1.65 g and 4.7 g, respectively. After being weighed, the (CuNO3)2 exhibited a blue color, while the Nal, through observation, was a white color. However, when both identities were combined, the product turned into a brown and red rocky material. Once 20 mL of deionized water was added, the product quickly turned pale pink paste. After the solution was repeatedly washed with a total of an additional 100 mL of deionized water, the product was powdery and pink with small grains, and was left to air-dry. Once the product was air dried, it was observed to be a pale pink color, while the filter paper was stiff as the product was hard and dry. Therefore, the solid was scraped off onto a recrystallizing dish. However, the mass of an empty recrystallizing dish needed to be recorded in order to compare how much of the synthesized copper iodide was obtained. Within this case, the empty recrystallizing dish used weighed 32.01 g, the product on the empty dish weighed 1.03 g, having a total weight of 33.04 g.

Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to observe the many physical and chemical properties of copper as it undergoes a series of chemical reactions. Throughout this process, one would also need to acknowledge that even though the law of conservation of matter/mass suggests that one should expect to recover the same amount of copper as one started with, inevitable sources of error alter the results and produce different outcomes. The possible sources of error that led to a gain or loss in copper are demonstrated in the calculation of percent yield (percent yield= (actual yield/theoretical yield) x 100.

The lab performed required the use of quantitative and analytical analysis along with limiting reagent analysis. The reaction of Copper (II) Sulfate, CuSO4, mass of 7.0015g with 2.0095g Fe or iron powder produced a solid precipitate of copper while the solution remained the blue color. Through this the appropriate reaction had to be determined out of the two possibilities. Through the use of a vacuum filtration system the mass of Cu was found to be 2.1726g which meant that through limiting reagent analysis Fe was determined to be the limiting reagent and the chemical reaction was determined to be as following:-

Scientists are fascinated with copper and its ability to be both harmful and beneficial depending on the form that the metal is in. A major issue that excessive copper has produced is copper pollution. The experiment conducted enable copper to be reacted through a series of chemical reactions to explore its ionic and elemental form. The properties of copper salts produced and the characterizes of the reactions were recorded. It also explored the reactivity of copper in the different chemical environments and assisted in making it more clear to find ways to deal with copper

The malachite basic copper carbonate formed as CuCO3 ⋅ Cu(OH)2 shows bright green, whereas that of azurite formed as 2CuCO3 ⋅ Cu(OH)2 shows strong blue. In this study, most of the manufactured copper carbonate was converted to malachite basic copper carbonate of bright green at the reaction mole ratio of >1.20. In the case of low reaction ratio of sodium carbonate, m, the stoichiometric coefficients of CuCO3, is higher than n, the stoichiometric coefficient of Cu(OH)2, so that the amount of CuCO3 is generated is more than that of Cu(OH)2. With increasing reaction mole ratio of sodium carbonate, m is lower than n so that the generation rate of CuCO_3 is lower than that of Cu〖(OH)〗_2. Therefore, copper content increased with increasing sodium carbonate. With assumption of same value of m and n, theoretical copper content becomes 57.5

The morphology of pristine CuO nanoparticles are determined by TEM micrograph as shown in figure 3 (a), the exhibits stacking of small flakes broken of CuO nanostructures giving leafy profile which had agglomeration. The leaf-like flakes have small width with an average size of the flakes is 500–600nm and thickness ~20–30nm. The corresponding SAED pattern (Fig. 3b) clearly shows that the CuO flakes are polycrystalline. Similar observation has obtained by SEM results (Fig. 3c), which demonstrates that the particles have rough surface and possesses flakes like morphology. EDX spectrum of confirms the presence of Cu and O elements alone (Fig. 3d).
