Part 1- Description of Substances: - Mossy Zinc: Shiny and small solid - Magnesium Ribbon: Shiny and long metallic solid - HCl: Clear liquid Description of Zinc and Mg reaction with HCl: - Observations of Mossy Zinc: It stays on the bottom after the addition of the HCl and there is only light bubbling. - Magnesium Ribbon: The ribbon moves around after the addition of the HCl and there is a large amount of fizzing. Dilution Data: - 1.5 M: Add 18.75 mL of the 2M HCl and mix with distilled water until the entire solution is measured to be 25 mL - 1.0 M: Add 12.5 mL of the 2M HCl and mix with distilled water until the entire solution is measured to be 25 mL - 0.75 M: Add 9.375 mL of the 2M HCl and mix with distilled water until the entire solution is measured to be about 25 mL -…show more content…
