Unit 3 Chemistry - Types of Chemical Reaction Lab Directions: For each reaction do the following #1-5: 1.

Perform each reaction 4. classify the type of reaction 2. record your observations, 5. balance equation with states. 3. take pictures for the blog A. Obtain Copper (II) Nitrate and small 50mL beaker. Place a small piece (1.00cm x 1.00cm) of aluminium into the beaker and then pour the Copper solution over the aluminium until it is at least halfway covered by solution. 2. While I was pouring silver nitrate into to the beaker, the aluminum became very white. And the water, after a while, turned blue. 3. Pics

4. This is single displacement reaction. 5. Cu(s) + 2AgNO3(aq) Cu(NO3)2(g) + 2Ag(s) B. - Obtain a 50mL beaker, pour about 20mL of D.I. water and a few drops of Phenolphthalein to it, record the pH. pH6 - Add about 5.0 mL of 1M NaOH, record the pH w/ pH meter & litmus paper, also test it for electrolytes w/conductivity apparatus. pH14 and it is conductive - Wash off the conductivity & pH sensor with D.I. water after you use it or it will corrode!!! - Put a thermometer in the beaker and add 5.0 mL of 2M HCl to the beaker , and measure pH & conductivity & temperature change. From 17.89 to 19.99 pH1 and was not conductive 2. After putting NaOH into the water, the water turned purple with a pH of 14 and conductive. Then we put HCl into the purple water, and it turned back to clear with a pH of 1 and was not conductive anymore.

4. Neutralization reaction.

5. 2HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) 2NaCl(s) + H2O(aq) C. Pour a small scoop of CaCO3 (about 1-2 grams) into the same beaker from the reaction in section B. 2. We put CaCO3 in the same beaker of reaction B and went of the bottom and then it dissolved 3. Pics

4. Decomposition reaction. 5. CaCO3(aq) + 2HCl(aq) H2O(aq) + CaCl(aq) + CO2(g)

D. Obtain a shiny piece of copper and a pair of tongs, hold the piece of copper up to a flame with tongs. 2. When we were heating copper, after a while, was keeping changing colors, like red, purple, white ecc. 3. Pics

4. Synthesis reaction. 5. 4Cu(aq) + O2(g) 2CuO(g) E. Place a small scoop (about 2 grams) of sucrose (C12H22O11) into a crucible and heat it over Bunsen burner. 2. After a while that the sugar was heating, started melting. And it turned to white, to brown color. It smelled really good, because it also turned to caramel. 3. Pics

4. Combustion reaction. 5. C11H22O11(aq) + 12O2(aq) 12CO2(g) + 11H2O(aq) F. Observe the burning Bunsen Burner. 2. While I was looking at the Bunsen burner there was a flame that was changing colors between blue, orange and green. 3. Pics

4. 4. Combustion reaction. 5. C3H8(aq) + 5O2(g) 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(aq) G. Pour Sodium Iodide into a test tube with around 20mL of DI water. Add Lead (II) Nitrate to the test tube. 2. When my lab partner poured the Sodium Iodide into the 20ml of water DI water still clear. After we added the Lead (II) Nitrate into the test tube it had a yellow supplement running down in the DI water. 3. Pics

4. Double displacement reaction 5. 2NaI(aq) + Pb2NO3(aq) 2NaNO3(aq) + PbI2(s)
