Lab Report Chemical Change

Procedure: In this experiment, various chemicals were mixed together, to determine a reaction. Using two drops from chemical 1 and two drops of chemical two, unless otherwise stated, then recording the type of physical reaction or color changes that occurred.

The main objective of this experiment is to differentiate between a physical change and a chemical change.

The mole is a convenient unit for analyzing chemical reactions. Avogadro’s number is equal to the mole. The mass of a mole of any compound or element is the mass in grams that corresponds to the molecular formula, also known as the atomic mass. In this experiment, you will observe the reaction of iron nails with a solution of copper (II) chloride and determine the number of moles involved in the reaction. You will determine the number of moles of copper produced in the reaction of iron and copper (II) chloride, determine the number of moles of iron used up in the reaction of iron and copper (II) chloride, determine the ratio of moles of iron to moles of copper, and determine the number of atoms and formula units involved in

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 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.

When the zinc was dropped in the hydrochloric acid, the substance began bubbling vigorously, forming a precipitate. Eventually, the zinc dissolved completely. After the lit wooden splint broke the surface of the test tube, there was a loud popping noise. The gas that was released was hydrogen from the acid and the popping noise was a result of the Hydrogen being burned up by the fire creating a small explosion. Two chemical changes occurred in this test: one with the formation of a precipitate (a textbook sign of a chemical change), and the other when the explosion

The objective of this experiment will be to combine various substances, liquids and metals, and to observe their behavior when they are combined. The types of reactions observed shall determine the nature of these reactions: physical or chemical.

B2.Place a few crystals of copper(II)sulfate pentahydrate in a test tube. Clamp the tube and heat in a horizontal position. One of the products is copper(II)sulfate. What is the other one? This decomposition reaction is easily reversible. Add a dropperful of water to the tube when it cools. Record what happens.

It’s important for reactions in aqueous solutions to reach equilibrium, meaning that both products and reactants need to be present before continuing to the next reaction or next step. In this experiment, copper was changed through eight different reactions. Throughout the process, qualitative observations were recorded to see what effect each type of acid and decanting has on copper. All of these steps were successfully completed by using different acidic solutions and zinc to take copper through the cycle from copper solid to copper nitrate to copper hydroxide, to copper oxide, to copper II sulfate, and back to copper solid.

The purpose of this lab was to find that what chemical change has taken place, identify the type of reaction based on the reactants and products of a reaction, and describe reactions by writing word equations and balanced chemical equations.

Substances differs from each other as each of the substances have different atomic composition and structures. And although the substances that shares the same characteristic can be grouped together, each of the substances still have their own unique and defining physical and chemical properties. Therefore, some substances may undergo a chemical change while others don’t during a same reaction. In the experiment conducted, two different elements were used, Iodine crystals, I2 and Copper wire, Cu. After recording the initial observation on both of the elements, they were both heated and allowed to cool.

The nine different metal ions, aluminum, barium, cobalt, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, lead and zinc, were reacted with sulfate, iodide, carbonate, hydroxide, and ammonia. When reacted with sulfate aluminum, cobalt, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, and zinc all had no reaction. Barium and lead both formed white precipitates. When reacted with iodide aluminum, barium, cobalt, magnesium, manganese, and zinc all had no reaction.

The main objective of this experiment is to carry out qualitative analysis to identify metal cations in unknown solution 1.

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 fifth reaction, 2.29 g of zinc was added to the copper (II) sulfate solution under the fume hood. The balanced equation for this reaction is written as followed:
