Cassandra, and Erik 8-3 - Flask - 2 Celsius Materials thermometers - 2 Portion cups - 2 beakers - Hot Plate - 3 Table sugar packets (C12H22O11) - Table Salt (NaCl) - Electronic balance - Protractor Measurements Sugar mass: 10.6g
Salt mass: 17.5g
Mass of portion cup : 10.8g
Temperature of hot plate: 550C
Volume of the water in each beaker: 250 mL
Temperature of bubbling water (not boiling): 88C
Temperature of boiling water: 100C
Procedural Steps 1. Turned on the hot plate, and set the temperature to the max temp (550C). 2. Add the three packets of sugar and salt into each separate portion cups and used a protractor to wipe off the top to get the most precise measurement. 3. Measured the mass of the salt and sugar, subtracting the mass of portion cup from each one (10.8g). 4. Using the flask, we measured 250mL of water into each beaker. 5. Started boiling the 2 beakers on the hot plate. 6. When the water started bubbling, we consistently checked the temperature of the water until it hit boiling point (100C). 7. Added the measured salt and sugar (the solutes) into separate beakers with the boiling water (the solvent). 8. Observed each beaker and took another temperature check of each beaker, which is the solution. Observations: Salt Water:
- The salt circulated in the water
- The salt made the water warmer temperature (went from 100C to 101C) - The water became translucent after adding the salt
Sugar Water:
- Sugar dissolved quickly
- The temperature went down by a little after putting the sugar into the water (went from 100C to 98C) Things To Keep In Mind While Doing The Lab - Level off the samples of salt and sugar with a ruler - Put the thermometer in at an angle in the water up until the submerged line, but do not have the bulb touching the bottom. - There is a thermometer for each beaker of water so there is no contamination Extra Pictures
