different precipitation reactions. The unknown solution contained either silver or lead and either barium or calcium. For unknown solution one, adding a sample of hydrochloric acid to the unknown solution started the experiment. This was imperative because it triggered a precipitation reaction, creating PbCl2 or AgCl. HCl was an ideal acid that was used because it was soluble to Calcium or Barium but atleast partially insoluble to Ag and Pb, allowing for the Calcium or Barium to have remained in solution
Chemical Formulas Review: Nomenclature and Formula Writing Naming Simple Compounds There are four naming systems you should familiarize yourself with to succeed on the SAT II Chemistry exam. The trick is recognizing which naming system to use. Here are the guidelines: * If the compound starts with H, it is an acid. Use the naming acids rules. * If the compound starts with C and contains quite a few H’s and perhaps some O’s, it is organic. Use the naming organic compounds rules. *
Naming a Chemical Compound To name a compound begin by deciding what type of atoms you are using. You should be able to clasify the pieces of the compound as Metals with a known charge (Groups 1 and 2, Al+3 , Ag+ , Cd+2 , and Zn+2 ) Metals which can have more than one possible charge (most of the transition metals) Nonmetals Polyatomic ions (these always have a known charge) All of the compounds you encounter will be one of two types: 1. Ionic Compounds (These are made by combining a metal
cases, scientists don’t often have all the details when performing experiments, and there is almost always some aspect that is unknown. In certain scenarios, a chemist may not know what elements or compounds are present in a specific sample, so they must be able to recognize properties characteristic of certain elements and compounds, to determine their presence in the unknown sample. When working with unknown ions, it is often best to use known solubility rules to manipulate, separate, and identify
the classification of elements. It shows the elements’ atomic numbers, masses, and symbols for each element. Elements are placed into rows and columns. The rows are called periods, and the columns are called groups. These help classify where the elements go on the periodic table. For example, the elements in the very last group on the periodic table are known as inert and noble gases. The modern periodic table resulted from trial, error, and succession. As more elements were discovered, the

() The science of a wide sea and the wheel of science in progress continues and never stand so we find every day what is new in different scientific fields and there is no doubt that nanotechnology has become the subject of modern science and the focus of interest and has become at the forefront of the most important areas in physics, chemistry, biology and others
Some people may ask what exactly is a chemical reaction? A chemical reaction is a process that involves rearrangement of the molecular or ionic structure of a substance. There is six types of chemical reactions named Synthesis, Decomposition, Single Replacement, Double Replacement, Combustion, and Acid base reactions. Synthesis is when two or more reactants combine to form one product. Synthesis always forms a compound. The equation for synthesis is A + B ---> AB. Water, which is H2O is a good
and tunable properties is central to the evolution of nanoscale science and technology. Nanometre scale metal particles exhibit optical, electronic, magnetic and chemical properties which have wonderful technological and scholar value. Among them silver, copper, and gold nanoparticles (NP) offer powerful adsorption bands (Localised Surface Plasmon Resonance, LSPR) in the visual spectrum. The frequency of the LSPR is mightily dependent on various properties of the NP. The optical properties of metal
