Investigation Of Independent Variable Initial Mass

11) [3.2] In Microsoft Excel (or spreadsheet application of your choice: see above), plot a line graph that shows how the mercury concentration of the five species varies over time. Think about which is the dependent and which is the independent variable. Be sure to label your axes. Copy your completed graph into the space below. (4pts)

The empirical formula for silver oxide for trial one is Ag5O4 and for trial two is Ag3O2. For trial one there is 0.451 grams of silver were produced from 0.504 grams of silver oxide. For trial two there is 0.456 grams of silver were produced from 0.500 grams of silver oxide. The difference between the mass of silver oxide and mass of silver is the mass of oxygen that vaporized into the air. There are 0.053 grams of oxygen vaporized into the air for trial one and 0.456 grams’ oxygen for trial two.

By extrapolating from the curve, the concentration of the unknown solution is ≈ 1.9mg.mL. The rate of reaction increases linearly with an increase in the substrate concentration.

The purpose of this lab is to use one of the ways to identify different compounds and be able to tell them apart. Based off of experimentation, the empirical formula of the given silver oxide will be determined.

3.0g of salicylic acid was weighed then 3.0mL of acetic anhydride and 6 drops of 85% H3PO4 were added to it. The mixture was warmed over a water bath for 5 minutes while stirring. After warming, 20 drops of distilled water was slowly added. 15mL of water was added then the solution was heated until it became clear. It was allowed to cool and was placed in an ice bath until the solution becomes cloudy. Using pre-weighed filter paper, the mixture was filtered and was allowed to dry in the filter paper.

The titration method had the best correlation coefficient of the entered data. The crystallization method had the most accurate slope for the

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

Figure 2 is a representation of the average saturation of each cuvette at a specific point time as a function. The y-axis shows the specific saturation points from figure 1, and the x-axis provides the different levels of pH. The pH scale provided on the x-axis ranges from 0 to 14, 0 being the most acidic and 14 being the most basic. The point chosen from figure 1 was the saturation levels of each cuvette at 110 seconds. The saturation point was chosen because in the previous graph at time 110 seconds the reactions of

To improve the results from the experiment buffer solutions that were not whole pHs could have been used e.g. pH 4.5, 5.5 etc. This would have provided more reliable results as a wider range of results would have been produced. Using pHs with decimals would also help to more accurately determine the optimum pH as the optimum may have been above or below the pH stated in the hypothesis; 8. In this experiment however the optimum is taken at 8 because the graph does not rise again.

Throughout the course of the experiment, the weight of the beaker and liquid, the weight of the Alka-Seltzer tablet, the weight of the beaker with liquid plus the weight of the tablet, and the weight of the beaker with all of the contents after the bubbling ceased remained roughly constant and did not vary widely. However, a trend is able to be seen in Figure 1. It is clear that as the mL of vinegar used in each experiment run increased, the mass percent of NaHCO3 increased as well. During the construction of Figure 1, experiment runs four and six were deleted to create the expected graph which consists of a gradual increase and eventually leveling off into a plateau.

This project explores the effectiveness of various cleaning solutions in cleaning tarnished and oxidized coins and the question that is trying to be solved is to find the best cleaning solution. If pennies are placed in lemon juice, apple juice, water, and baking soda paste the penny with the cup of baking soda paste will be the cleanest. My data is what was recorded during the experiment.

A linear line of best fit (calculated by the Microsoft Excel Program with the entered points) is included in the graph to show the increasing trend of percent change along with the increasing molarities of sucrose solutions.

The slope of this graph, calculated using the average rise / run is also 1. As [S2O8-2] is held constant during these trials, the exponent n for [I-] equals one. The k constant can now be calculated.

An ice bath was prepared in a large beaker and a small cotton ball was obtained. 0.5 g of acetanilide, 0.9 g of NaBr, 3mL of ethanol and 2.5 mL acetic acid was measured and gathered into 50mL beakers. In a fume hood, the measured amounts of acetanilide, NaBr, ethanol and acetic acid were mixed in a 25mL Erlenmeyer flask with a stir bar. The flask was plugged with the cotton ball and placed in an ice bath on top of a stir plate. The stir feature was turned on a medium speed. 7mL of bleach was obtained and was slowly added to the stirring flask in the ice bath. Once all the bleach was added, stirring continued for another 2 minutes and then the flask was removed from the ice bath and left to warm up to room temperature. 0.8mL of saturated sodium thiosulfate solution and 0.5mL of NaOH solution were collected in small beakers. The two solutions were added to the flask at room temperature. The flask was gently stirred. Vacuum filtration was used to remove the crude product. The product was weighed and a melting point was taken. The crude product was placed into a clean 25mL Erlenmeyer flask. A large beaker with 50/50 ethanol/water
