There are 60 different exercises, all in convenient reproducible form, ready to be photocopied. You have complete flexibility to select labs most suited to ‘your program. ‘The labs are designed to be simple and pertinent. They require the use of ‘common pieces of apparatus and materials. The experiences are planned to mi ize the hazards inherent in lab exercises while maximizing the outcomes. In order to ensure a smoothly running lab program the following procedures are recommended: 1, The labs should correlate with current classroom topics. They should reinforce the theory being taught. 2. Classes should be familiarized wit the lab problem, the apparatus to be used, and the procedures to be followed. Show the class the apparatus, and how it should be used, but do not prejudice the students by performing the lab as a demonstration. Allow the students to make their own discoveries. ‘Warn the class of safety hazards and precautions that should be taken for each lab at hand, 3. Lab exercises should be followed up with a review of procedures, observa- tions, and conclusions. All questions and the defined problem on the lab sheet should be answered. The quizzes accompanying each lab are designed to be administered after the lab is performed. 4. Students should write their lab reports using a well-defined and structured format. A suggested format is provided in this manual. It is further suggested that each student keep a notebook for all reports. Lab Features ‘The labs reinforce the steps of the scientific method. Each lab expresses its aim in problem form. This directs students end their teachers to the main idea of each lab without the necessity of reading through the lab sheet. The definition of the problem is recognized as the fist step in the scientific method. Information is gathered from observations. The Procedure section leads the student step by step to the pertinent observations. Lab sheet questions are designed to make students trained observers. They ‘must reason and draw conclusions based on observations. x Practical Chemistry Labs To challenge advanced students rigor may be introduced into reasoning skills by requiring a statement of reasons, based on observations, for each conclusion. ‘The last conclusion should be the answer to the lab problem. Each lab is followed by Teacher Notes that provide the answers to questions ‘on the lab sheet and pertinent notes. ‘The five-question postlab quizzes measure student understanding of the lab content. The quizzes also serve to establish a serious academic atmosphere for each lab session. Overall, this manual has been designed to ensure successful laboratory exper- iments for you and your students. We would like to hear your questions and com- ‘ments about these labs. Address them to Science Editor, J. Weston Walch, Pub- lisher, Box 658, Portland, Maine 04104. User response will help us evaluate our success in supplying a useful, practical lab resource.

Wear your lab apron, gloves, and safety goggles when using sulfuric acid. Ifthe acid spills onto your skin, wash it of with plenty of cool water. Neutralize acid spills with sodium bicarbonate. Do not allow this acid to remain on your clothing. Procedure 1. Half fill a 600-mL beaker with water. Invert two water-filled test tubes into the beaker. Clamp the test tubes as shown in the ciagram. 2. Strip about 2 cm of insulation from both ends of two wires. Place them under the ‘mouths of the test tubes. 3. Attach only one wire to the battery terminal, Raise your hand to call your teacher for your inspection. Your teacher will carefully pour sulfuric acid into the beaker. Then you will connect the remaining wire to the open battery terminal. 4, After 10 minutes disconnect the wires. Insert a glowing splint into the test tube ‘with les gas (from the positive electrode). 5. Remove the test tube containing more gas. Hold it upside down. Insert a flaming splint into it 6. Bring the burning gas to a watch glass. Conclusions 1. Why doesn’t water flow out of the submerged, inverted test tubes? 2. Which gas forms at the positive wire? What accounts for the behavior of the glow- ing splint in this gas? 3. Which gas forms at the negative electrode? What accounts for the behavior of the slowing splint in this gas? 4. Why is there a larger volume of one of the gases? Write the chemical equation for the decomposition of water. © 1989 J.

LAB QUIZ ANSWERS Le a a 3 4e 5 Lab #2 The Bunsen Burner Name: Date: PROBLEM: How can we operate and control the Bunsen burner? Bunsen burner (with gas hose) nichrome wire crucible tongs 250-mL beaker © 1989 J. Weston Wale, Publisher Materials tripod wire gauze thermometer graduated cylinder Procedure 1, Examine the burner and learn the names of its parts (see Figure 2.1). Take it apart by revolving the needle valve and barrel. Look through the center of the burner and notice the hole running through it. This is for gas. What is the purpose of the air holes, needle valve, and barrel? 2. Assemble the burner by turning the needle valve and barrel into place until it stops. 3. Unscrew the needle valve seven or eight turns. Connect the burner to gas outlet with a hose. Look at Figure 2.2 and notice how to turn the hhandle so that the gas will be on. Light the ‘burner. This produces a yellow flame that is ‘unsuitable for heating because it forms soot (car- bon). To eliminate the soot, open the air holes until a nonluminous flame is produced, 4, The room should be darkened for the following procedure. Open the air holes completely by turn- ing up the barrel and reduce the size of the flame with the needle valve. Notice that two cones have been formed. Test the inner cone by holding an iron wire on the top of the barrel for a moment. Now raise the wire slowly into the outer cone. Which cone gives more heat? Where is the flame hottest? Why? Practical Chemistry Labs Lab #2 Name: The Bunsen Burner (continued) Date: 5. Pour 150 ml of cold tap water into a 250-ml. beaker. Measure and record the temperature of the water. Place the beaker on a wire gauze on a tripod. Heat the water over a blue flame for 2 minutes. Measure and record the new temperature, 6. Repeat Procedure 5 using a yellow (luminous) flame. Compare the results. Which flame generated more heat? Why? 7. Shut the gas off by turning the handle of the gas jet at right angles to the pipe. See Figure 23. Fig 23 Conclusions Copy the diagrams into your notebook. Explain how to adjust the burner for different types of flames. ‘Compare the flames for heating. ‘What is the purpose of the needle valve? How would you adjust the Bunsen burner to obtain a luminous flame? How would you adjust the Bunsen burner to obtain a nonluminous flame?

Weston Welch, Publisher 9 Practical Chemistry Labs Lab #2: The Bunsen Burner Teacher Notes Procedure 1 Bunsen Burner Purpose Part ‘Air Holes Regulate the amount of air mixing with gas, thereby Controlling the flame temperature. Needle Valve | Regulates the gas flow, thereby controlling the size of the Bunsen flame. Barrel Directs the gas flow upward. 4, Which cone gives more heat? Heat is produced in the outer cone because this is where the gas mixture is burning, The inner cone consists of a nonburning air gas mixture. Gases begin to burn at the ‘edges of the inner cone. Supporting evidence for this theory (explanation) is that the wire glows more brightly in the outer cone than it does inside the inner cone. Where is the flame houest? Why? ‘The hottest part of the Bunsen flame is located just above the tip of the inner cone. The reason for ths is that heat, generated where the gas burns, rises and focuses at the upper tip of the inner cone. 6. Which flame generated more heat? Why? ‘The temperature of the water rose faster and to a higher temperature in two min~ ‘utes with a blue flame, as compared with a yellow luminous flame. The blue flame {s hotter because the gas burns more completely due to the abundance of air (oxygen). The luminous flame, produced with a limited air supply, is cool due to the incomplete burning of the gas. The yellow color is caused by hot glowing pieves of unburned carbon from the gas. 10 Teacher Notes (continued) Conclusions 2. Sce Procedure | and Procedure 4 answers above. 3.

Conclusions 1. Density is defined, in this experiment, as weight per unit volume. 2. The densities of wood, water, and steel are determined from their weights and volumes. 3. The density of wood is less than 1 g/mL. ‘The density of water equals 1 g/mL. ‘The density of steel is greater than 1 g/mL. 4, See the Data Table Answers atove. 5. Steel ships float because they weigh less than the weight of water they displace. 6, Since water is about 800 times more dense than air, diving planes on submarines and the rudder on a large ship can be small but equally as effective as the compara- tively large control surfaces required on aircraft.

In some chemical systems, energy is absorbed. In other systems energy is released. The energy forms vary with the reactions. Procedure Solution Preparations: The silver nitrate solution is prepared by dissolving 17 grams silver nitrate per liter of water. Store the silver nitrate in a brown bottle and away from heat and light. The salt (NaCl) solution is prepared by dissolving 30 grams of table salt ina liter of water. Filter the salt water solution if it appears to be cloudy. Twenty-five percent hypo solution is prepared by dissolving 250 grams of sodium thiosulfate (hypo) ina liter of water. 1. A white precipitate (silver chloride) forms when silver nitrate reacts with sodium chloride. 2. The exposed silver chloride begins to darken in color. The unexposed silver chlo- ride remains white. 3. Hypo solution dissolved the silver chloride precipitate. A clear solution results. ‘Where the silver chloride was exposed to the light, small black specks of colloidal silver may be observed. 6. The photograph that was treated with hypo is permanent.

Weston Walch, Publisher ™ Practical Chemistry Labs Lab #16: Filtration Teacher Notes ANSWER TO PROBLEM Oil and water do not mix. They can be separated by allowing the oil to “settle” to the top for removal. We can remove lerge suspended particles from water by filtration Water can be deodorized by use of a charcoal filter. The charcoal absorbs the odor molecules on its surface. Small particles cannot be removed from water by filtration. Ink forms colloidal-sized particles, Distillation is required to remove the ink particles. Procedure 1. Clay, oi, and garlic powder do not dissolve in water. The ink colors the mixture. This is a mixture because no new substance is formed. Each component in the mix- ture continues its independent betavior. 2. The funnel is effectively used as a separation device. Oil floats on water. 5. If the suspension reaches over the edge of the filter paper, the suspended particles will bypass the filter paper. 6. The clay and garlic powder remain on the filter paper. The ink-colored water passes through the pores of the fiter paper. The filtrate still has the smell of garlic ‘The odor molecules pass through the pores of the filter paper. 7. Ink passes through the charcoal, but the garlic odor molecules are absorbed onto the surface of the charcoal. The filtrate is odorless, but remains ink colored. Ink in water forms a colloidal solution, 8, The gravel-sand filter should hold back the clay, but the ink will still pass through. This shows that dissolved poisons cannot be removed from water by simple filtration. Conclusions 1, Muddy water can be cleared by filtration, 2. Odor molecules can be removed from water by fit mn through a charcoal filter, 3, Filtration did not remove the ink because its particles were too small for the pores of the filter. They pass through the filter. See the distillation lab. 4, Filtration is a process in which insoluble large suspended material is separated from its suspending medium. The suspended particles must be larger than the holes (pores) in the filter. 'S. The residue is the material trapped on the filter. The filtrate is the liquid that passes through the filter. 15 Teacher Notes (continued) 6. Repeated filtration causes the large pores to tecome clogged. The result is that the filter becomes finer. The process becomes slower, but more thorough. 7. The bottom gravel will not wash through the holes in the cup, and it will hold ‘back the sand from above. The top gravel prevents the sand from churning up when the suspension is added, 16 Lab #17 Name: Distillation Date: PROBLEM: How can we separate the components of a solution?

Weston Walch, Publisher 94 Practical Chemistry Labs Lab #21: Solution Rates Teacher Notes ANSWER TO PROBLEM ‘The factors that determine the speed of solution are particle size, agitation, and temperature. Procedure 2. The test tube that contained the powdered cupric sulfate is darker in color. The color is due to the dissolved copper salt. The darker the color of the solution the ‘more concentrated iti. ‘The smaller the size of the particle, the more rapidly it will dissolve. This is ‘because small particles, as compared with large crystals, present a greater exposed surface, and more opportunity for solute-solvent contact. 44, The shaken test tube has a deeper color. This indicates that agitation speeds solution. 6. The heated test tube acquires a deeper color. This indicates that temperature speeds solution. 7. Air bubbles appear on the sides of the glass vessel when itis heated. The air comes, ‘out of the solution. This indicates that gases are less soluble at higher temperatures, If boiled water is used in an aquarium, the fish will drown in the water for lack of dissolved air. This water must first be aerated. Conclusions |. See answer for 2 in the Procedure section, . See the “Answer to Problem.” Each factor affects the amount of solute-solvent contact. . The solubility of a gas varies inversely with temperature. (More gas dissolves in colder water.)

You are reminded, of course, to ‘wash your hands after handling chemicals and before eating to avoid ingesting (eating) ‘chemicals with your food at mealtime. It is recommended that you begin your crystal ‘growing with alum or chrome alum because these are materials that consistently produce ‘200d results.

Tie a small and perfect crystal to a thread Start with a saturated solution of alum, chrome lum, or any material whose crystal you want 10 ‘grow. The solution should be in an open con- tainer to allow for the evaporation of the solvent. is is ‘your seed crystal. This is the crystal that will be grown, The seed erystal should be larger than any other crystal in the solution. (Please refer to Lab 21 regarding particle size.) Suspend the seed crystal in the saturated solution (Gee Figure 22.1), . As the solvent evaporates, the solute deposits on the seed crystal. The tiny crystal will grow larger. Slow growth is better than fast growth because the crystals will have a more perfect shape. Practical Chemistry Labs Lab #22 Name: Crystal Growing (continued) Date: 6. CAUTION: Be sure that the saturated solution remains saturated at a temperature slightly higher than room temperature. If the room temperature increases during the day, your saturated solution may become unsaturated, and your seed crystal ‘may dissolve. In that case you will have to start again, at step 1. Ifthe room should grow too cold, at night, the solution may also cool. In that case your crystal may ‘grow too fast and a distorted shape may result. 7. Excess solute on the bottom of the container will ensure a saturated solution, but the crystals must be smaller than the seed crystal that you want to grow (see step 2 above). Conclusions |.

Weston Walch, Publisher 98 Practical Chemisny Labs Lab #. Crystal Growing Teacher Notes ANSWER TO PROBLEM Crystals can be grown from saturated solutions as described in this lab exercise. Note: Alum is recommended to start arystal-growing projects because these crystals are easy to grow. Alum is a compound thet is composed of a univalent metallic ion and a trivalent ion combined with a sulfate polyatomic ion; e.., KA1(SO,);.12H,0 (alum), KC1(SO,);.12H,0 (chrome or blue alam). Conclusions 1. Slow growth is preferred because the crystals grown have better shapes. 2. The seed crystal must be the largest crystal so that it will dissolve more slowly than the others. Smaller crystals dissolve more rapidly because they expose more surface to the solvent. The dissolved solute will deposit on the seed crystal. 3, See step 6 on the lab sheet. 4, Crystals must be grown in open jars to allow for solvent evaporation, thereby ensuring a saturated solution.

Weston Walch, Publisher 22 Practical Chemistry Labs Lab #50: Factors Affecting Combustion Teacher Notes ANSWER TO PROBLEM Burning can be controlled by fuel availability, oxygen availability, and temperature. Procedure 4. Unburned carbon (soot) deposits on the glass in the luminous flame. The carbon came from the gas (fuel). ‘The wire hardly glowed in che luminous flame. This indicates that the flame is cool. 5. The brightly glowing wire, held above the inner cone, indicates high temperature in this location. Large air availability produces a hot flame. 6. The inner cone consists of nonburning gas. The flame that appeared at the end of the glass tube demonstrates this fact. 7. The gas does not burn below the wire gauze (the same phenomena would occur above the gauze) because the metal mesh spreads the heat so fast that the non- burning gas cannot reach its kincling (ignition) temperature. Its suggested thatthe ait holes be closed to reduce the amount of air mixing with gas. A cooler flame will result, and better results obtained. If the gauze gets too hot, the gas may reach its igrition temperature and ignite. 8. See step 7 above. 9. The paper cup cannot burn becaise it cannot reach its kindling temperature. The heat is absorbed by the water in: Conclusions 1, Burning requires air (oxygen), fuel, and high-enough ignition temperature. ‘A wet blanket eliminates air (oxygen) and thereby smothers a fire.

The weight gain occurred because the metal combined with oxygen in the air. ‘A chemical change took place. 5. When things burn in the air, they combine with oxygen. . Corrosion of iron and steel is prevented by not allowing the metallic object to be in contact with oxygen.

Add one drop of soap solution to % of a test tube of calcium bicarbonate solution. Shake the mixture, Note the results. Is this water hard or soft? Give two reasons for your answer. 5. Fill ¥s ofa test tube with calcium bicarbonate solution. Clamp it in a ring stand. Heat gently. Is there any change in the appearance of the solution? What does this indicate? 6. Continue heating with gentle boiling. What is the deposit formed on the side of the test tube? 7, Filter the solution, Add one drop of soap solution to the boiled solution and shake it, Do lasting suds form? Is a gelatinous precipitate formed? What does this, indicate? © 1989 J. Weston Walch, Publisher 237 Practical Chemistry Labs Lab #56 Name: Hard Water (continued) Date 10. ML. 10. er Aaweepe Test for Permanent Hard Water . Make some hard water using calcium sulfate as described in step 2 above. Clamp the test tube on a ring stand and boil the solution gently. Is a precipitate formed? ‘Add one drop of soap solution and shake it uo. Note the results, Has the hard ‘water softened as a result of the boiling? Is this temporary or permanent hard. ‘water? Why can’t permanent hard water be softened by boiling? . Test your tap water. Is it hard or soft? (Optional Exercise) Repeat steps 2-8 using magnesium sulfate and magnesium bicarbonate in place of the calcium sulfate and calcium bicarbonate. (Optional Exercise) Repeat steps 2-8 using ferric sulfate and ferric bicarbonate in place of the calcium sulfate and calcium bicarbonate. Conclusions ‘What is hard water? ‘What is soft water? ‘What two results do you see when soap is shaken with hard water? Mention one result of shaking soft water with soap. . What compounds are commonly found in teraporary hard water? ‘What minerals make water hard? . What is meant by temporary hard water? . What is meant by permanent hard water? (Optional Exercise) 1. Write the equation for the softening of temporary hard water. (Optional Exercise) ‘Write an equation for the reaction of calcium ions with soap. © 1989 J, Weston Walch, Publisher 238 Practical Chemistry Labs 1. Hard water reacts with soap and ‘a, does not form lasting suds and forms a gelatinous precipitate. b, forms lasting suds and also forms a gelatinous precipitate, ©. does not form lasting suds and does not form a gelatinous precipitate. 4. forms lasting suds and does not form a gelatinous precipitate. 2. Temporary hard water contains 4. calcium sulfate and is softened by boiling. ’. calcium sulfate and cannot be softened by boiling. ¢. calcium bicarbonate and is softened by boiling. 4. calcium bicarbonate and cannot be softened by boiling. 3. Alllof the following minerals will make water hard except a. calcium, ». sodium. c, magnesium, 4. iron. 4.
