Laundry Detergent Lab
The purpose of this entire experiment was to find a way to help slow or even stop the spreading of oil. The substances that were used were Dish soap, Laundry detergent, and Kosher salt. After test the three, laundry detergent seemed to stop the oil the most. The oil took over 5 minutes to get through the detergent. The oil took 8.8 seconds to get through the soap. The oil took 16.8 seconds to get through the salt. The first step is to gather all the supplies needed for the experiment. The next step is to make sure take there is protective gear to use because using oil can hazardous. Then, put the bins in a straight line and fill the bins with 1 ½ gallons of H2O. Then, measure the substances and pour the substances in the bins. Next, slightly

    Food Dyes Lab

    To complete this lab, I first mixed the solvent solution consisting of the proper ratio of water, salt, and isopropyl alcohol in a Pyrex measuring cup. I then prepared my chromatography papers for 2 trials by drawing, with a pencil, the appropriate lines and labels. Using a toothpick, I added the color to the paper, and then repeated until the color was strong. I repeated this step several more times for the M&Ms as the color solution was not as strong as the food dyes. After the dyes were dry, I rolled the paper and added it to the pie plate, which contained a small amount of the prepared solvent. I then waited for the solution to…

    Food Dyes Lab

    Abstract: The purpose of this lab was to determine the food dyes present in a selected beverage, their concentration, and then replicate the solution within a 20% margin of error. The beverage we chose was Gatorade Frost Riptide Rush. A spectrometer was used to determine which food dyes were present in the sampled beverage, red 40 and blue 1 were determined to be present. The next step was to determine the concentration of the dyes, this was done by testing the absorbance of the red 40 and blue 1 dyes at varying concentrations; 100%, 80%, 60%, 40%, and 20%. The results for each dye were then plotted in a graph and a trendline was added. The slopes of the trendlines (y=mx) for red 40 and blue 1 were then used to determine the concentrations,…

    Sludge Lab

    A few weeks ago, I got a container full of “sludge”. I was asked to separate it into its four components and identify each one to help me better understand how to separate mixtures ad identify substances. My original sludge had a liquid on top and solid(s) on the bottom. The liquid was clear, and most of the solid was tan. There was a small layer of blackish/brownish particles in the middle of the tan solid. There were small yellow “rocks” visible on the surface of the tan solid. For the first physical observation, I tried smelling the mixture. It smelled like permanent marker. Next I tried sticking a spoon in it and stirring the tan solid lightly. It looked like it was an…

    Hydrate Lab

    Hydrates are compound with a constant composition. Concepts of Law of Definite Proportions (hydrates remain in constant proportions) and Law of Conservation of Mass (this idea is used to determine the mass of water in the compound and, subsequently, the formula of the compound) are expressed in this experiment. In this experiment, the goal was to find the formula of copper sulfate pentahydrate by heating a sample of the blue compound in order to evaporate the water and receive the white-colored copper sulfate anhydrous. Using the mass of the original sample of copper sulfate pentahydrate subtracted by the new mass of the copper sulfate anhydrous, the mass of water lost is obtained and used to find the empirical formula. The expectation for…

    Sodium Chloride Lab

    In the experiment, we tested a sodium chloride solution. Along with the tested solution, control groups (water and sodium phosphate) were used to be help understand whether or not NaCl was a buffer. Water was the negative control group and sodium phosphate was the positive control group. If NaCl was a buffer than the pH would be stabled as the sodium phosphate buffer. If NaCl was not a buffer than the pH would fluctuate like the negative control, water. During the first trial and prior to the drops of 0.5 M of HCl acid, the pH of sodium chloride was 7.50. After the addition of 5 drops of 0.5 M of HCl, the pH decreased by 4.83 and ended at 2.67 on the pH scale. When comparing the results of the sodium chloride to the control groups, the total pH change of sodium phosphate was only…

    Formation of Alum

    The first step of the lab is to measure the mass of 250 mL beaker, once you have done this add .9 to 1.2 grams of aluminum can pieces to the beaker. Take the mass once again and find the difference between the two to find the mass of aluminum. Add 50 mL of a 1.4M KOH solution to the beaker. Make sure and a use a fume hood to vent the gases that are produced during the experiment. Maintain a volume of 25mL; if the volume gets low add distilled water. Next set up an aspirator to filter the reaction once it is finished. Wet the filter paper and then pour the reactant in to the filter. Rinse out the beaker with distilled water to get all the reactant out. The flask should be a clear solution. Transfer the solution to a 250 mL beaker. If the filtrate is still hot us an ice bath to cool it down. Measure out 20 mL of 6.0 M of sulfuric acid and begin to add the acid to the reaction mix. Make sure and add the acid slow or it will begin to turn into a solid, continuously stir. Once you have completely mixed in the acid filter out the solution.…

    Chemical Reaction Lab

    This aim of this experiment was to determine whether or not a chemical reaction occurred after the mixing of various chemicals. The evolution of a gas, the formation of precipitation, and the change of temperature or color are all indicative of a chemical reaction. It was assumed that a reaction did not take place if the mixture of chemicals exhibited none of these characteristics. Several precipitation, complex-ion formation, redox, and acid-base reactions were performed.…
