Types of Chemical Reactions
Abstract
The purpose of the Types of Chemical Reactions lab is to become familiar with the different types of chemical equations. Also the experiment allows one to apply their equation skills to explain reactions. This is done by heating compounds with the Bunsen burner and also by mixing compounds in the twenty four well plate. The experiment found that the liquid compounds reacted to form milky liquids. Also that the heated solids caused condensation that put the fire on the splints out. The experiment could have been flawed due to measurements.

Introduction In the Types of Chemical Reactions lab one of the skills used is the skill of balancing equations. Chemical equations are the quantitative way of showing a reaction. In order to respect the law of conservation of mass which states that mass is neither created nor destroyed. In order to observe this law equations must be balanced using coefficients. For example the reaction of Sulfur and Oxygen yields Sulfur Dioxide. Shown quantitatively as [pic].

Materials and Procedure In Part 1 of the lab the tongs were used to heat a strip of copper foil in the Bunsen burner. The copper was allowed time to cool and the spatula was used to scrape its surface. Also a strip of Magnesium was heated in the bunsen burner and when it combusted it was held over the ceramic plate. In part 2 of the lab 3 scoops of hydrogen carbonate were heated in a test tube and a lit wooden splint was put in the opening of the test tube. Also in part 2 of the lab the same steps were repeated with copper sulfate. In part 3 of the lab 20 drops of HCl were added to a test tube with a small zinc piece. It was then heated with a lit wooden splint in the opening. Also in part 3 of the experiment a small piece of steel wool was added to a test tube with 10 mL of 0.6M copper sulfate. In part 4 of the lab 2 drops of 0.1M silver

    Neutralization experiment AIM:- To investigate how heat is given out in neutralizing sodium hydroxide (NaOH) using different concentrations of Hydrochloric Acid. Background Information:- Substances that neutralize acids are called alkalis. An acid is a substance that forms hydrogen ions (H+ ) when placed in water. It can also be described as a proton donor as it provides H+ ions. An example of an acid is hydrochloric acid (HCl), Sulphuric acid (H2SO4) etc.…

    Chemical reactions are everywhere! The food you eat and the oxygen you breathe change from during reactions inside your body. When sugar, water, and yeast are mixed into flour to make bread dough, a chemical reaction takes place. Chemical reactions occur when substances go through chemical changes to form new substances. Often, you can tell that a chemical reaction is happening because you are able to see changes, such as the ones in the image above.…

    We need to put on the lab apron and safety goggles before we do anything. Then we need to choose a partner and decide what role we are performing in Part I. One of us needs to be an observer, and the other will be the recorder. Later we will change our roles in Part II. The recorder need to record the temperature so then we can right the data in table I. while doing the lab, we need to obtain a test tube assembly consisting of a thermometer embedded in solid dodecanoic acid from Mr. Morrison. We need to remove the cotton plug and save it for the end of the lab. To do the lab, we need to put 300 mL of tap water into a 400 mL beaker and place the beaker on the hot plate. Then we need to turn the hot plate on to high heat and raise the temperature to around 55C to 60C, and we can measure the water temperature by using a thermometer. While the water is heating, we need to set up a ring stand with a buret clamp to hold the test tube assembly. When the water has reached to 55C, we need to turn the hot plate to a low heat. Then, we will lower the test tube assembly into the water bath and clamp in position so that all the dodecanoic acid is submerged below the water line. After that, the recorder can record the temperature of the dodecanoic acid in Table1, and every 30 s after that. During the heating process, the temperature of the water bath should be monitored with its thermometer to make certain that the water…

    The substance (or substances) initially involved in a chemical reaction are called reactants or reagents. Chemical reactions are usually characterized by a chemical change, and they yield one or more products, which usually have properties different from the reactants. Reactions often consist of a sequence of individual sub-steps, the so-called elementary reactions, and the information on the precise course of action is part of the reaction mechanism. Chemical reactions are described with chemical equations, which graphically present the starting materials, end products, and sometimes intermediate products and reaction conditions.…
