Experiment #1 – Safety and Laboratory Equipment. Objective:
To determine which laboratory equipment is the most accurate and precise. Background information & Theory:
Every piece of labware (whether made of glass or plastic) used to measure volume has some error associated with it. Some of the labware has a ± percent printed on it. For example a 100-mL graduated cylinder with a ±1 mL error on it means that if you measured 100 mL of a liquid it is really 100 ± 1 which is somewhere between 99 mL and 101 mL.
Equipment & Materials:
Name of labware
Quantity
beaker
1
volumetric flask
1
graduated cylinder
1
graduated pipet with bulb
1
Erlenmeyer Flask

Instructions: You will use each of the labware listed in the equipment & materials section to measure 100 mL
of deionized water three times. Pure water at room temperature should have a density of about 0.99796 g/mL
so use this to convert the volume into mass and weigh it on a 2 digit, 3 digit, or 4 digit analytical balance and
record the mass.

Calculation Section: For this section calculate the average mass from all three measurements using each piece
of labware and then calculate the percent error from the literature value of 99.7960 grams and then calculate
the standard deviation.
Discussion Section: For this section you will discuss what you notice or observe in your data and
calculations. The labware with the lowest percent error should be the most accurate and the labware with the
lowest standard deviation should have the highest precision. See if you have a labware that has both the
lowest error and lowest standard deviation meaning it has the best accuracy and precision.
Conclusion Section: In this section you will make you conclusion based upon you data, calculations, and
discussions.
Experiment #2 – Effect of Solutes on the Boiling and
Freezing Points of Water Objective:
To observe the effect of adding a solute on the boiling and freezing points of a solvent. (the default solvent is water). Materials & Equipment:
Available in the Laboratory: Bunsen Burner Iron Stands and clamps DI Water (or any solvent preferred) From Prep Room Cart: Different Solutes (NaCl, sugar, vinegar) (Density of vinegar needs to be given) Thermometer Ice (stored in Ice Bucket) Salt to be added to the ice Copper Wire Loop with Handle (for Vertical Stirring) Large beaker (600 mL capacity) From Group Drawers: Beakers Test tubes
Procedure:
Part I – Effect of Solute on Freezing Point 1.
Prepare the freezing point apparatus as shown on
the illustration.
2.
Pure Water
Place exactly 20 mL of DI water into the test tube. As water freezes, continually stir the liquid for
form a “slush”. Monitor the freezing mixture such
that there is always a fresh supply of ice. Remove
the melted ice, if necessary. Note the temperature at which the solid and liquid
are in contact and the temperature stops to change. This is the freezing point. 3.
Water with Solutes.
A. Using NaCl as solute. Repeat step 2 above using another clean test tube. Before placing the tube into the freezing mixture, add a measured amount (1.0 – 2.0 grams) of NaCl and stir the mixture. Then cool the mixture as in step 2. Follow the rest of the procedure in step 2 and determine the freezing point of the mixture. B.
Using Sugar as solute. Repeat 3A, replacing NaCl with sugar C.
Using Vinegar as solute. Repeat 3A, replacing NaCl with a measured amount of vinegar.

Experiment #3 – Chemical Kinetics (using Iodine Clock
Reaction) Objectives:
Part I: To determine orders of reaction and rate constant, for the reaction of Iodide with Hydrogen Peroxide to produce Iodine, and to write out the rate law. Part II: To demonstrate the applications of Arrhenius Equation and to determine the Activation Energy (Ea) using graphical analysis of results from Part I. Background/Concept

The rate or speed of the reaction is dependent on the concentrations of iodide ion and hydrogen peroxide. Therefore, we can write a general rate equation for the reaction: Rate = k [I

Starch is added to the reaction mixture in order to calculate the rate of reaction. As iodine is formed during the reaction, it will immediately react with the starch to produce a complex with a brown-
black color. This will tell you when the iodine is formed, but you have no idea as to the amount of hydrogen peroxide that has reacted in a given amount of time, i.e., the rate of reaction. So, thiosulfate ion, , is also added to the reaction mixture so that the following reaction will occur simultaneously with reaction (1). I

Thus, the iodine that is formed in reaction (1) is immediately transformed into iodide ion and we do not see the blue-black color of the starch-iodide complex until all of the thiosulfate ion has reacted with I
2(aq)
. When this occurs, we will then know the amount of hydrogen peroxide that has reacted and the time it took to react. For example, if you start with 5.0 x 10

M of Na

in the reaction flask and you see a color change after 20 seconds, then you can say that 2.5 x 10
-5
M of I
2 (aq)
has been formed in 20 seconds and that 2.5 x 10
-5
M of hydrogen peroxide has reacted in 20 seconds. [Remember for every 2 moles of thiosulfate ion reacting, only 1 mole of iodine and, therefore, 1 mole of hydrogen peroxide are reacting. This is the stoichiometric ratio
from the two reaction equations, (3)
and (1)
.] The rate of disappearance of hydrogen peroxide is 2.5 x 10
-5 M divided by 20 seconds. This gives a value of 1.25 x 10
-6
M/second. ***
This is the value that will be recorded under REACTION RATE
on the data sheet. Note that the concentration of the I
-
(aq)
ion doesn't change since it is regenerated in reaction (3)
. In all of the reactions the amount of thiosulfate ion used will be kept small relative to the amount of hydrogen peroxide. Therefore, the concentration of hydrogen peroxide will change very little and you will essentially be working with initial concentrations of reactants and initial rates of reaction. You will do a total of three reactions at room temperature, one reaction at cold temperature (about 5
o
C), and one reaction at hot temperature (about 40 o
C, using a hot water bath). The three reactions at room temperature are labeled # 1, #2 , and #3. These make up Part I of the experiment. For the reaction #'s 1 and 2 the concentration of iodide is the same but the concentration of the other reactant, hydrogen peroxide, does vary. For the reaction #'s 1 and 3 the concentration of hydrogen peroxide is the same but the concentration of the other reagent involved in the rate expression, the iodide ion, does vary. The amounts, and therefore the concentrations, of the starch, sulfuric acid, and
sodium thiosulfate are constant for each reaction combination. In the reaction where the concentration of hydrogen peroxide (a molecular compound) is varied, the difference in the total volume of solution is compensated by the equivalent amount of another molecular compound , water. In the reaction where the concentration of iodide ion is varied, the difference in total volume is compensated by the equivalent amount of another ion of the same charge , the chloride ion. Effectively the total volume of the reaction, and the total ionic strength of the substances present is maintained at a constant value. After you have determined the reaction rate for each of the three reactions at room temperature you will substitute the values of the reaction rate, [
I
-
], and [
H
2
O
2
] for reaction #1 into equation (2)
. Then divide this entire equation by substituting the values for the reaction rate, [
I
-
], and [
H
2
O
2
] for reaction #2 into equation (2)
. This will give you a ratio of the reaction rates for reactions #1 and #2 on the
left side; and a ratio of the products of k
, [
I -

, and [
H
2
O

]
b
for reactions #1 and #2 on the right side. The
values of
k
, and [

a
will cancel on the right side since they are the same for both reaction #'s 1 and 2. This gives you a number on the left equal to [

b or a single number raised to the power "
b
". The value of " b
" can now be calculated. Now repeat the calculations for the two reactions where [H
2
O
2
] is kept constant and determine the value for "
a
". You can now calculate the value of "
k
" for each of the reactions since you have the values of "
a
" ,
"
b
" , [
I
-
], [
H
2
O
2
], and the reaction rate
. The average of these three values is the value of "
k
" at room temperature. Part II
The results of the three reactions run at different temperatures (cold, room temp and hot) make up Part II
of the experiment. The mathematical relation, the Arrhenius equation
, relates the rate constant , k
, and the temperature in the following equation: ln k = ( Ea/R) (1/T) + ln A (
#4)
where Ea
is the activation energy for the reaction, T
is the temperature in o
C
, k
is the rate constant at T
, and R
is the ideal gas constant in units of J/mol
}
K and having a numerical value of 8.31. The equation is related to that of a straight line: y = mx + b
. If "
ln k
" is plotted against "
1/T
", then the slope of the resulting line will equal
-Ea/R
. The activation energy can be obtained by this method. LABORATORY PROCEDURE

Le Châtelier’s Principle
Required reading:
Ebbing, 11th Edition Chapter14.
Le Chatelier’s Principle
Effect of adding or removing products or reactants from an equilibrium.
Effect of the common ion.
Effect of the change the pH of an equilibrium.
Effect of changing the temperature to an equilibrium.
Learning Goals:
To understand how to manipulate equilibrium reactions.
To evaluate the validity of the Le Chatelier’s principle.
To determine whether a reaction is endo or exothermic based on qualitative experimental results.
Background information and theory
:
The equilibrium constant
, K,
is determined as a ratio of the product of the equilibrium concentrations
of the products raised to their stoichiometric coefficients divided by product
of the equilibrium concentrations
of the reactants raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. Equation 2 shows the expression to calculate K
for the generic equilibrium shown here:

Where lower case letters represent the stoichiometric coefficients and capitalized letters represent hypothetical chemicals involved in the reaction. A K
value which is > 1 indicates a
product dominate system, and one < 1 indicates a reactant dominant system. It is also possible to calculate a similar ration of products to reactants using values of concentrations under non-equilibrium conditions. This calculation is known as the reaction quotient
,
Q
, and its value can help identify whether the reaction is still on its way
to an equilibrium condition before or after a potential perturbation to such system. The expression to calculate this quotient for the generic equilibrium above would look very similar to that used to calculate K

•
If Q

, then the system is at equilibrium. •
If Q
<
K
, then the system is still favoring the formation of products on its way to reach the equilibrium.
•
If Q
>
K
, then the system is favoring the formation of reactants on its way to reach the equilibrium.
Perturbing an Equilibrium System
Once a system achieves equilibrium, it will remain at equilibrium until an outside stress alters its relative concentration of products and reactants. There are several ways by which
an equilibrium system can be disturbed. This can be by directly changing the concentration of products and/or reactants, or, for a system which is in a gas phase, by altering the volume or pressure of the reaction system, or, changing a change in the temperature of the system. The Le Chatelier’s principle
states that any system at equilibrium will always find its way to re-establish equilibrium conditions after a perturbation has been caused to the initial equilibrium state. This principle helps scientists predict how any equilibrium system will behave in order to re-establish an equilibrium condition.
Changes in concentration of either reactants or products, a simple analysis of equation 3 would help predict what the system will do. For the generic equilibrium from equation 1:

Adding moles of C or D: Q > K, reaction shifts left
Adding moles of A or B: Q < K, reaction shifts right
Removing moles of C or D: Q < K, reaction shifts right
Removing moles of A or B: Q > K, reaction shifts left
Changes in volume and pressure
will depend on the relative values of the stoichiometric ratios of the gaseous
reactants and products. If the sum of the stoichiometric ratios of reactants equals the sum of the stoichiometric ratio of products, P and V changes have no effect. If the two are not equal, P and V changes will favor the side of the reaction with the smallest value of the sum of the gaseous stoichiometric ratios. Changes in temperature
of a system depend on whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic. We can predict the effect temperature change has on the position of an equilibrium for exothermic and endothermic reactions by considering energy to be either a
product (exothermic) or a reactant (endothermic). This is done by looking at the thermochemical equation
of the reaction in consideration, as follows.

Once we identify which side of the reaction arrows the heat belongs in, then the analysis is identical to the one we would do when changing amounts of reactants. The Reaction
In this experiment, you will be exploring the behavior of one reaction system under different perturbations caused to its equilibrium condition. You will do this in order to determine the validity of Le Chatelier’s principle. All the reactants and products in question
in this experiment are aqueous, so volume and pressure changes will not be evaluated. Equation 6 shows the equilibrium system we will work with.

Aside from evaluating the behavior of this Co

At the end of the experiment, students should be able to identify if the reaction is endothermic or exothermic by exploring the color changes in solution occurring when heating and cooling samples of the equilibrium mix.

Experiment #6
PREPARATION AND STANDARDIZATION OF A SODIUM HYDROXIDE SOLUTION Objectives
To prepare a solution (of required concentration) of sodium hydroxide
To review the principles
of titration
To standardized solution of sodium hydroxide reagent.
Part 1 – using a solid acid as primary standard Part 2 – using a standardized acid as primary standard
PRE-LAB ASSIGNMENT: Perform a Background Research on: (1)
Titration, (2) Standard Reagent, (3) Primary Standard, (4) Preparation of solutions of required concentration (Chapter 12) Procedures
Preparation of Solution 1)
Obtain the needed sample of sodium hydroxide. (Use the analytical balance to get the exact mass of the sample, as determined in the pre-lab assignment.) 2)
Pour the sample into a clean beaker and add enough DI water (~100 mL) to make 100 mL solution. 3)
Use a Stirring Plate for mixing. Make sure that the stir bar is clean. 4) Use this solution for titration and standardization. Part 1: Standardization of NaOH using a solid Acid as primary standard. 1)
Obtain a clean buret
and set-up for proper titration (be sure to use proper buret stand and buret clamp). Run DI water thru the buret. 2)
Run a small amount (less than 5 miL) of NaOH solution (that your group prepared)
thru the buret. Have a container ready for the washings and pour this out into a waste bottle. 3)
Fill the buret with the NaOH sample solution, and calibrate for proper measurement of volume. Make certain that the buret tip is filled with the solution. Keep the stopcock closed when buret is not in use. Note down your initial buret reading. Chem 1412 Page 24

4)
Preparation of the primary standard: 5a) Obtain a stock sample of approximately 3.0 grams
of KHP. (use an evaporating dish or a weigh boat). 5b) Using an analytical balance, obtain the mass of a clean & dry 125-mL Erlenmeyer flask to the nearest 0.0001 gram. 5c) Remove flask from balance and carefully transfer your stock sample of KHP (
close to 3.000 grams
) to the flask. 5d) Re-weigh the flask with the KHP sample (using the same balance) Record all mass measurements. 5e) Add about 40 mL of DI water to the flask and stir until the KHP is dissolved (use
a stirring plate, if necessary) 5f) Add 2-3 drops of phenolphthalein indicator. 5)
Position the flask with KHP on top of a stirring plate and under the tip of the buret. Titrate the KHP solution with the NaOH in the buret by adding the titrant slowly (1 to 2 mL portions at a time). When the pink color becomes more observable, add the titrant one drop at a time until the pale pink color becomes permanent. 6)
DO NOT OVER TITRATE. The titration is complete when a pale pink color
persists for a minimum of 30 seconds. 7)
Record the final buret volume reading . 8)
Repeat the experiment (Steps 1-8)for a second trial using a similar amount of KHP. 9)
At the end of the second trial, return any remaining NaOH “stock solution” into the original container. Make sure it is not contaminated. Part 2: Standardization of NaOH using a standard HCl solution as Primary Standard. Follow the same procedure as Part I, except changing Step (4) by replacing KHP with 40.0 ml of standard 1.0 M HCl provided by the Instructructor. 10)
Clean the buret and return to the Laboratory Cart. 11)
Perform all required calculations (outside of the lab) and determine the average concentration of the NaOH sample solution. Chem 1412 Page 25

Experiment # 7
ACID-BASE TITRATIONS & TITRATION CURVES Pre-Lab
From the lecture series, a titration curve
is prepared by plotting the pH of the titration mixture versus the volume of the titrant
added. When the points are traced properly, the resulting curve will look like the letter “S” or the mirror image. The equivalence point
corresponds to the midpoint of the steep portion of the curve. This can be graphically located by drawing a vertical
line dividing the curve into equal parts. The pH that corresponds to this point (where the vertical
line and the curve intersect) is the pH at equivalence point. Objectives:
To demonstrate the titration
of acid with a base in different combinations (strong and weak)
To prepare titration curves for four different combinations of acid-base titration. Part 1 (Strong Base) Titrant 1- A: Titrating a Strong Acid (HCl) with a Strong Base (NaOH) 1.
Calibrate the pH meter by placing the electrode into a buffer solution (of known pH) and adjusting the knob to the pH of the given buffer. Then lift the electrodes and rinse with DI water before using in the succeeding steps. 2.
Obtain a clean buret and rinse with DI water. Then clamp the buret to a ring stand. 3.
Obtain a stock solution of standard NaOH solution (approximately 100 mL placed in an Erlenmeyer flask). Using a beaker, fill the buret with the NaOH solution, just above the calibration mark. Drain a small amount into a beaker until the meniscus is at a point within the zero mark (or any chosen calibration mark for initial reading. 4.
Obtain 35 mL of approximately 0.10 M HCl solution in a clean, dry200-mL beaker. 5.
Position the beaker with the acid on top of a magnetic agitator so that the pH electrode is immersed in the solution. Note the initial pH of the acid. 6.
Then, place the tip of the buret with the base titrant just inside the beaker, with the tip below the rim. 7.
Titrate the acid by adding the base from the buret in 2-4-mL increments, stirring continuously and, noting the pH after each addition. (Note: When a weak base is involved, Chem 1412 Page 27

use your discretion on the volume of titrant to be added… sometimes 6-8 mL increments may be necessary) 8.
When successive pH readings begin to increase rapidly, add the titrant in smaller increments (1 mL or in drops) until successive pH readings are increasing only slightly. Gradually increase the amount of base added (not to exceed 2 mL at a time), until the pH reaches about pH = 10 (or over), or when the letter “S” is formed by the points. 9.
Prepare a titration curve by plotting the volume of base added as the abscissa and the corresponding pH as the ordinate. Determine the equivalence point for each titration. Part 1-B: Titration of a Weak Acid (acetic acid) with a strong base (NaOH) – Repeat Steps 1
– 10 in Part A, replacing HCl with acetic acid. Part 2 – Using Weak Base as Titrant
Part C: Titration of Strong Acid with Weak Base •
Use Ammonium hydroxide to titrate HCl. Follow the same procedure as Part 1-A Part D: Titration of Weak Acid with Weak Base •

- 2. A student is told to determine the density of a solid unknown cylinder. The mass of the unknown cylinder is 56.38 grams. The unknown cylinder is 4.95 cm high and has a radius of 1.28 cm. The student measures the correct mass but measures the height as 4.96 cm and the radius as 1.30 cm. What will be the percent error in the student's density value? True- Experimental| x100 Percent Error = Truearrow_forwardgraduated cylinder weighs 35.825 g. When 10 mL of water is measured in it, the weight of the graduate and water is 45.835 g. Calculate the weight of the water, and express any deviation from 10g as percentage of error.arrow_forwardIt was still incorrect please solve it again.arrow_forward

- A volumetric flask that is to be used to measure volume is supposed to be marked at 10.00 ml but is actually marked at 9.95 ml. This error affects its precision. True or false? please explainarrow_forward3. A student is using a 10 mL volumetric pipet to dispense water and wants to test how accurate the volume is by weighing the water dispensed from the pipet. First, they measure the mass of a beaker to be 30.045 ± 0.005 g. They then collect 10 mL of water into the volumetric pipet and dispense the water into the beaker. The mass of the beaker plus the water is 40.081 ± 0.005 g. Calculate the mass of the water added to the beaker and use propagation of error to calculate the uncertainty of the mass. Report the mass of the water with the uncertainty with appropriate significant figures.arrow_forwardCan you help me, please?arrow_forward
