Then 5mL of HCl was added to copper to completely remove all traces of zinc. Once the bubbling had stopped, the rest of the liquid was decanted away from the copper. Then the copper recovery set up was put together using tubing, Buchner funnel, filter paper and suction flask. Then the filter paper was weighed before placing it in the funnel and wetted down. The aspirator was turned to medium high, and then the copper was poured onto wetted filter paper.
The solution was decanted into another beaker. The left over sand was rinsed with few mille liters of hot distal water three times to remove any leftover benzoic acid and salt. The sand was allowed to completely dry and the
Use your 4 markers to draw a different colored dot on each of the pencil marks on the paper strip. Allow the markers ink to dry, and then go back recolor each dot. 5. Prepare the saltwater mixture by mixing 1/8 teaspoon of salt and three cups of water in a clean 2-liter bottle. Stir or shake the solution until it is dissolved.
Transfer the distillate via Pasteur pipet into a 15-mL centrifuge tube. Wash the distillate with two 2.5-mL portions of water, removing and setting aside the water layer at each step. Transfer the organic material to a small, dry Erlenmeyer flask, leaving behind the last drops of the water layer. Remove any drops of water that were accidentally transferred to the Erlenmeyer flask, if any, then add small amounts of anhydrous sodium sulfate as drying reagent. When the liquid is dry, it will be transparent and some of the drying agent will flow freely like beach sand.
6. Combine the iron and copper (II) sulfate together into the distilled water. Heat to a slow boil for 10 minutes. 7. Remove from the heat and allow to cool until you can hold it.
The MgSo4 absorbed the last traces of water the ether solution. The solution was completely dry when it appeared crystal clear and MgSO4 floated in the liquid, when swirled. If solution is cloudy, more drops of MgSO4 were to be added until solution was completely dropped. 5) We decanted the solution from the solid MgSO4 into a 50 or 100 ml round bottom flask. 6) The ether was removed using the rotary evaporator.
The acid was poured into the flask until there was a permanent pink colour. The acid was allowed to be poured for a little longer before the flask was removed and taken to a lab bench with a buret that contained 0.1 M sodium hydroxide, and the amount of acid used was recorded. The sodium hydroxide was added into the flask in small amounts
The seaweed will be cut and weighed (6 grams) and transferred into 150 mL solution. Using 40 mL of distilled water the seaweed is heated just under boiling for five minutes. After cooling, a filter will be used to remove the seaweed from the extract. The goal is to transfer 2-3 mL of filtrate into the evaporating dish. We now slowly pour the solution into a funnel with filter paper.
To keep the colors from fading, washing the fabric and drying it is good, but the key ingredient is soda ash. You sprinkle soda ash into a tub of water and let your fabric soak for a minute or two. The soda ash will lock in your dye and make your colors more vibrant and they will be less likely to fade. You can find soda ash in most craft stores. The amount of soda ash to use varies so it is a good idea to read the directions before adding it.
Experiment 2 Time | Observations | 5 minutes | Bubbled like sugar | Once salt water was added | Turned soapy white and thick | Equation: METHOD 1) Put 2 cm3 of castor oil into a 250 cm3 beaker and add 10 cm3 of 5mol.dm-3 sodium hydroxide from a measuring cylinder. (Take care when measuring this out and adding it to the beaker to avoid any drips and spills.) 2) Heat the mixture gently over a tripod and gauze, STIRRING CONSTANTLY with a glass rod (otherwise the mixture erupts). Allow to simmer (boil gently) for 5 minutes. Steady the beaker using
