Lab 1: Mass and Volume Relationships (Expt 2) 1. Familiarize yourself with the metric system. (See powerpoint: slide 3) 2. The formula for density is , where m = mass, and v = volume. Know how to find one when the other two are given. MAKE SURE THAT THE UNITS MATCH. 3. Water displacement method calculation 4. 5. Review the relationship between mass% sucrose and density. Lab 2: Observing the Reactions of Household Chemicals (Expt 4) 1. What are the four common visible changes that accompany a chemical reaction? Know the definition of each. 2. Define and differentiate exothermic and endothermic reactions. 3. Know each of the four household chemicals’ active ingredients a. Lysol toilet bowl cleaner (Hydrochloric acid: HCl) b. Baking soda (Sodium bicarbonate: Na2CO3) c. Vanish crystal bowl cleaner (Sodium bisulfate: NaHSO4) d. Clorox liquid bleach (Sodium hypochlorite: NaOCl) 4. Why is it dangerous to use and acid containing toilet bowl cleaner with a chlorine liquid bleach? Lab 3: The Estimation of Avogadro’s Number (Expt 10) Understand the calculations in the lab report. Lab 4: Emission Spectra and Electronic Structure of Atoms (Expt 17) Equations! a. i. h = Planck’s constant 6.626 x 10-34J·s; = frequency (s-1) ii. c = speed of light 3.00 x 108m; = wavelength (m) iii. RH = Rhydberg’s constant; n2 = final state; n1 = initial state b. Given two of the three should allow you to calculate for the third one. c. Remember that n2 = 2 for the visible region. Lab 5: Determination of a Chemical Formula (Expt 8) 1. Understand how to calculate: a. Mass ratio b. Mole ratio c. Percentage difference 2. Remember that Zn is in excess. Therefore the reacted Zn = initial mass – excess mass. 3. What is the color change observed upon heating and why is this important? 4. Know how to come up with the simplest chemical formula from the mole ratio.
