1. What is the value of Avagadros #?
This experimentally determined value is approximately 6.022 x 10
23

particles per mole.

2. Define Avagadros number.

Avogadro's number is the number of particles found in one mole of a substance. It is the number of atoms in exactly 12 grams of carbon-12.

3. Calculate the number os atoms in 3.5 grams of P2O5 Given: 3.5 gram solution mass of P2O5 =2*30.974+5*16=142 gram/mol oxygen atom= 3.5 gram*(1 mole of P2O5/142gram/mol)*(5 mole oxygen/1 mole P2O5)*(6.022*10^23 atoms /mole O)= 7.4190140845070422535211267605634*1022 4. How would you caliberate your pipette? Step1: check accuracy and precision at highest setting of volume Step2: repeat same procedure for lowest volume setting Step3: if necessary adjust pipet at lowest setting using calibration Step4: Adjust and measure until pipet is accurate %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
1. Clean the Pipette: Thoroughly clean the pipette as well as the beaker. Dry it out completely. This is done to get rid of any past residue that may affect the results.2 2. Add Distilled Water: Put some distilled water in an Erlenmeyer flask. Let it stand out on a bench for about 15 minutes. Now, measure the temperature of the water.3 3. Beaker Mass Measurement: Find out the mass of the beaker to the nearest tenth of a milligram, using a balance.4 4. Taking Help of Pipette Filler: Now, using a pipette filler fill the pipette with the water from the flask. Move this water into the beaker. Weigh the beaker again. Note down the difference in weight of the beaker and calculate the mass of water discharged. Carry out this process three more times. 5.

5Calculate and determine: Calculate and determine the mean of the four pipette

measurements. 6. Adjusting the Buoyancy of Air: Make an addition of 1.06 mg per gram to the mean mass to adjust for the buoyancy of air during the weighing. Do not follow this step in case you are using a digital scale. 7. Calculating Density of Water: Calculate the density of water at the temperature you measured earlier in the process. Determine the mean volume of water discharged by the pipette using the formula: Volume = mass / density. 8. Compare Measurements & Calculations: To check the precision of your pipette make a comparison of your measurement and calculations to other results in pipette calibration.

1. What is the detergent doing to the water? When detergent placed in water it produce exothermic reaction that produces heat as chemical bond energy is converted into thermal energy.

2. What would happen if you look directly at the burning Magnesium? ( 1pt)

The bright white light produced by burning magnesium contains ultraviolet light that can permanently damage eyes.
3. Write the decomposition reaction for peroxide. ( 1pt) Its a decomposition reaction 2H2O2+catalyst-----> 2H2O +O2 4. What are physical & chemical properties? Give two examples of each one of them. ( 2pts)

Physical properties: are the characteristics of matter that can be changed without changing its composition
These characteristics are directly observable or measurable E.g. Size, Shape, Mass, Density, Conductivity

Chemical properties: are the characteristics of a substance that determine the tendency of the matter to
transform in composition as a result of the interaction with other substances These are characteristics that describe the behavior of matter

E.g. Flammability, Solubility, reaction

5. Where would you dispose off the peroxide waste? _______________________________ ( 1pt) In secured waste disposal site
