Single Replacement Chemical Reaction Lab

In the experiment, What Goes Around Comes Around, the element copper was put through a series of chemical changes to observe whether or not the final copper precipitate had the same mass as the initial mass of the copper. The purpose of this lab is to prove the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that mass cannot be created nor destroyed. In the experiment, if the final mass of the copper precipitate is equal to the initial mass of copper, this law is proven because the copper was not destroyed in the chemical reactions nor was it created. Copper was first combined with the compounds nitric acid(HNO3), water(H2O), and sodium hydroxide(NaOH). This mixture was first chemically separated using heat to boil out the water. The aqueous solution

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?

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

Introduction – A double replacement reaction is a chemical reaction between two compounds where the positive ion of one compound is exchanged with the positive ion of another compound. If you have the reactants of two reaction solution that you can determine the products. All you need to do is pair the positive parts of the compounds with the other compounds negative part. Once you find the products you can determine their phase of matter by using Table H. You can also use Table F to determine the solubility guidelines for aqueous solutions. If the product falls under soluble or exceptions to insoluble it is in the aqueous stare. If the product falls under

The purpose of this lab was to determine the limiting reactant in a reaction between copper sulfate and iron. Using the reaction between copper sulfate and iron, the reaction was observed to see the reaction and transformation of matter. The copper sulfate was placed into a beaker, as the excess reactant, then iron filings added until the heated solution was completely reacted. This reaction created an excess of leftover. The law of conservation of mass can be observed in this reaction, and using the data found, the percent yield calculated.

Day 1. Michael was coming home for vacation from college. When he got home he found out that

Purpose: The purpose of this lab activity is to help understand observation and interpretation and to distinguish one from another all while analyzing the chemical reaction. You will see what happens when you put a beaker with water in it and then put dry copper and after that put aluminum foil in and see the observations and interpretation in the chemical reaction.

Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to observe a variety of chemical reactions and to identify patterns in the conversion of reactants into products.

This lab revolves around precipitate it reactions. The precipitate reactions happen when it had cations (positive atoms) and anions (negative atoms) in aqueous solutions combined to form an insoluble ionic solid, which is called a participate. In order for these reactions to occur they must be Aqueous and this can be determined by using solubility rules. Predicting these reactions a sign test to find out which ions are present in a solution. Double displacement reactions are the kinds used in this lab. This means that the compound will switch partners and form a bond with a different part. The reaction occurs in Aquarious solution and one of the products that is formed is in soluble.

This lab allowed students to understand and observe the four reactions. In order to further this lab and knowledge, a further lab can be conducted. In the lab one can learn about and practice the four reactions and balancing

In this laboratory experiment a synthesis was performed through several separate steps. The purpose of the experiment was to synthesize tetraphenylcyclopentadienone from benzaldehyde and to run reactions on carbonyl containing compounds. There was a total of three steps that led up to the synthesis of the final product, tetraphenylcyclopentadienone. The first step of the experiment was the condensation of benzaldehyde to yield benzoin. Thiamine catalyst along with water and ethanol were added to the benzaldehyde, then NaOH was added until the solution turned yellow. After recrystallization, the product was benzoin. Step two was the oxidation of benzoin to benzil.

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 main purpose of this experiment was to show that single displacement reactions between metals according to their reactivity, with more reactive elements having the power to displace less reactive elements and take their place in a chemical compound (Beran, 2014). This was supported by the results of the experiment, where solid metals were combined with aqueous solutions that contained another element, and reactions only took place when the solid metal was more reactive than the other element in the compound. Only three attempted trials resulted in a failure to produce a reaction, namely the combinations of copper with hydrochloric acid, and copper with nickel sulfate. The outcomes of these trials are justifiably reasonable because copper is ranked lower in the

In the fourth reaction, 15 mL of 6.0 M sulfuric acid was added to the copper (II) oxide while stirring. The balanced equation for this reaction is as follows:

And copper (II) ions were reduced to copper because it gained electrons and its oxidation number changed from +2 in copper (II) ions to 0 in copper.
