Chemical Reaction Lab Report

1. The first experiment is Preparation of a Cobalt Amine Bromide Product ; Synthesis #3 was used to create the compound. Added 5 grams of cobalt carbonate to 20 mL of hrdrobromic acid in a beaker. Noticied a slight color change to dark purple. Solution frothed after it settled I mixed in 15mL water and

A chemical reaction is when substances (reactants) change into other substances (products). The five general types of chemical reactions are synthesis (also known as direct combination), decomposition, single replacement (also known as single displacement), double replacement (also known as double displacement), and combustion. In this lab, the five general types of chemical reactions were conducted and observations were taken before, during, and after the reaction. Then the reactants and observations were used to determine the products to form a balanced chemical equation. The purpose of this lab was to learn and answer the question: How can observations be used to determine the identity of substances produced in a chemical reaction?

Aim: The aim of the lab “Chemical Equilibrium” is to observe the effects of changes in concentrations of products and reactants on the position of the equilibrium of given chemical reactions.

During the experiment, two different techniques to disturb systems at chemical equilibrium are utilized. The first one is changing the concentration of one of more species that are involved

When the red Co(NO3)2*6H2O crystal was added to the white NH4 crystal, and water was added to dissolve, the solution turned blue in color. As the solution was nixed, the color changed to that of a blue-purple and a blue precipitate formed. When the 6 M NH3 began to be added, the color shifted to dark purple color after 15 mL of ammonia and the amount of the precipitate was less. After 20 mL of ammonia, the solution became a red brown with very little of the blue precipitate. After 30 mL of ammonia, the solution was similar in color to an iodine solution, a dark brown-red, almost black in color. At this point there was no visible precipitate on the surface of the solution. After 40 mL of the ammonia had been added, the solution was the same iodine like color as before. When closely examined, there was a black precipitate that had settled on the bottom of the beaker. At this point, hydrogen peroxide, 3% H2O2, was added to solution. After 4 mL of the H2O2 was added, the solution was the same color and the precipitate had not changes. After 8 mL of the H2O2, there was not noticeable change. After 12 mL of the H2O2, the solution was slightly redder in color but the precipitate had not changed. After 15 mL of H2O2, the solution was the same color and no changes had occurred to the precipitate. At 17 mL, the solution began to effervesce slightly, though there

A buffer is a solution that resists changes in pH when H+, OH-, or H20 is added. By using standard lab equipment, a lab pro diagnostic tool, and acidic and basic solutions, the pH can be found. By recording the pH while adding a base or an acid gradually to a buffer solution you can find the capacity of each buffer to resist drastic changes in pH. The best buffers will keep a solution from becoming either too acidic or basic with the addition of a strong base or acid.

A reaction has an equilibrium constant, Keq, of 50. When performed in the presence of an appropriate enzyme, the forward rate of reaction is increased 20-fold. What will happen to the reverse rate of reaction?

37. Chemical formulas are written so that the charges of cations and anions neutralize (cancel) one another.

Upon the addition of water, it was noted that a layer separation occurred and the water layer remained on top, with the 2-methylphenol layer on the bottom layer. Then, conversion calculations were performed to determine the appropriate amount of 3M NaOH to be added to the 2-methylphenol solution. From the calculations, it was determined that 1.08 mL were to be added. 3M NaOH itself was a cloudy solution in appearance and upon the addition of 3M NaOH to the 2-methylphenol solution, it was noted a color change occurred and it became a yellow-green solution. Following this, the same calculations used previously, were used to determine the appropriate amount of sodium chloroacetate, which was found to be 0.38 g (3.26 mmol). Sodium choloroacetate was a white, crushed solid that was then combined with 1 mL of water and was swirled until the sodium chloroacetate completely dissolved. This sodium choloracetate solution was then transferred to the 2-methylphenol solution by the use of a medicine

If the relative amount of reactants is altered, then the limiting reactant may change accordingly. For example, a balanced chemical equation of a certain reaction specifies that an equal number of moles of two substances A and B is required. If there are more moles of B than of A, then A is the limiting reactant because it is completely consumed when the reaction stops and there is an excess of B left over.

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.

In equilibrium 3, we added hydrochloric acid to the system, the solution turned blue revealing that the hydrogen and chloride ions were forming CoCl4-2 (aq). When water was added, the solution turned pink which revealed that the water was not diluting the solution but reacting. Equilibrium shifted right because CoCl4-2 (aq) was formed. The equilibrium shifted left as water added proved by the color change back to pink. When the system was placed when into the hot water bath, the color changed to blue which indicates that the reaction is endothermic.

As seen at the equations, the solid NaOH dissociates into its ions, after that it is neutralized by HCl.

The purpose of this lab was to use process titration to find concentration of an aqueous solution of Hcl(aq) , using KOH(aq) as the titrant.
