Significant figures are all the digits you know for sure and one place that is an estimate.
Uncertainty is the limit of precision of the reading (based on your ability to estimate the final digit). See
examples below.
Rules for zeros:
All zeros count except placeholder zeros (the ones that disappear when you write the
number in scientific notation).
Examples:
93,000,000 = 9.3 x 107
2 significant figures
0.000372 = 3.72 x 10-4
3 significant figures
0.0200 = 2.00 x 10-2

Unit One Experiment – 1
Bunsen Burner Operation
EX – C – U1 – 1
Introduction:
The purpose of this experiment is to learn to operate a Bunsen burner and make careful observations regarding
combustion.
Background:
One of the most useful and exciting aspects of chemistry is the use of the Bunsen burner. Based on the way it is
operated, you can attain different temperatures, gas and air mixtures, and other necessary combinations for use in
a laboratory setting.
Safety:
Safety goggles will be worn at all times.
Procedure:
1.
Light the Bunsen burner by holding a spark igniter next to the barrel of the burner and turning on the gas.
NOTES:
 The barrel should be opened half way.
 The gas is flowing to the burner where the handle is parallel to the spigot or nozzle of the gas outlet.
 There are two points of control on the burner: the barrel itself and a screw adjustment knob, known as
the “wheel”, at the base of the burner. Be careful in making adjustments of either the barrel or the
wheel since turning these pieces too far will disassemble the burner. Additionally, be especially careful
since making such adjustments while the burner is in operation can result in more critical accidents.
 Turning the barrel adjusts the mixture of air with the gas.
 Turning the wheel adjusts the amount of gas that flows through the burner. Note that you should never
leave a burner turned off when the wheel is adjusted for a high flame as it poses a significant danger to
the next person utilizing the burner.
2.
Turn the barrel of the burner while it in operation. Observe the barrel openings near the base of the tube.
Record how turning the barrel controls the oxygen availability, and note the relationship between hole size
and air availability.
3.
Turn the barrel to decrease the flow of air. (Turn the barrel down, in other words.) Observe the color of the
flame. Record a description of the color and structure of the flame, and compare how this appears
compared to a candle flame.
4.
Use the wheel to adjust the flame to about 4 inches or 10 centimeters. Describe how adjustments of the
wheel raises or lowers the flame height.
5.
The proportion of air to gas in the mixture determines the flame’s temperature. Lean mixtures (high air/low
gas) burn hot. Rich mixtures (low air/high gas) burn cool. The structure of the flame is a function of both
the rate of flow and the richness of burning mixture.
When placing a glass item, such as a beaker, over a flame, soot will often form. If soot forms on the
beaker, then the combustion is incomplete, giving off carbon in the form of soot. If no soot forms on the
beaker, then the combustion is complete, giving off carbon dioxide instead from carbon reacting with
oxygen gas as well as also producing water.
page 46 – C – T3 – BOOK
Using a low air supply, hold a 250-mL beaker of water with beaker tongs over the flame and observe the
beaker’s bottom. Record any observations regarding the appearance of the bottom of the beaker. Which
element, if any, is in your observation? Clean the outside of the beaker following your observations.
6.
Turn the barrel upward to increase the air supply. You may also need to adjust the gas supply, using the
wheel, if the flame is either too low or too high. Adjust the air supply so that the flame has an inner blue
cone and the burner makes a low roaring sound. Record your observations of the flame structure as well
as a labeled diagram of what you observe.
7.
Fill the cleaned 250-mL beaker with ¾ cold tap water. Using the beaker tongs, hold the beaker over the
burner and watch for condensation (dew). Turn the burner off. Record your speculated source of the
condensed water, recalling that lowering the temperature usually precedes dew formation on the exterior of
the beaker wall. Cite evidence related to your speculation.
8.
Turn off the burner and put away all equipment.

Mass and Change
EX – C – U1 – 2
Introduction:
The purpose of this experiment is to learn about changes in mass based on physical and chemical changes that
occur.
Background:
Although the appearance of matter can be different, it is often questionable as to whether the mass of the matter
changes, particularly when burning something or reacting something under a set of circumstances. This
experiment will help you to determine how mass can change, if at all.
Safety:
Safety goggles will be worn at all times.
Procedure:

evaporating dish, and heat the steel wool until it glows. Turn the steel wool around in the flame so that all
sides are exposed. Any pieces of the steel wool that break free during heating should fall into the dish and
then be transferred to the triple-beam balance. After the wool has been heated for awhile, allow the wool to
cool. Find the mass of the steel wool provided using the triple-beam balance. Record the mass using the
correct number of decimal places, and record any observations about the heated wool compared to the
original wool.
Calculate the change in mass by subtracting the mass of the heated wool by the mass of the original wool.
Record the mass using the correct number of decimal places.
Discard the cooled wool per your teacher’s instructions.

Unit One Experiment – 3
Density and Relationships
EX – C – U1 – 3
Introduction:
The purpose of this experiment is to determine the densities of unknown metals.
Background:
Have you ever noticed that some pipes tend to weigh a lot more than others, even if they are smaller? This aspect
is strongly related to a relationship expressed by the physical property called density. Density is defined as the
ratio of a substance’s mass to the volume it occupies. The formula for density is as follows:
Density 
Mass (g)
Volume (mL)
In this experiment, you will measure the mass and volume of three unknown metals. You will then use your data to
explore the relationship between the mass and volume of the metals to determine their respective densities.
Safety:
Safety goggles will be worn at all times. During this experiment, no open-toe shoes are to be worn.
Procedure:
As you perform this experiment, record your data in Data Tables 1 and 2.
1.
Determine the mass of the three different unknown metal samples to the nearest 0.01 gram using the
centigram balance. Record the masses of the metal samples into Data Tables 1 and 2.
2.
Find the volume of each metal sample by water displacement. Fill one of the provided graduated cylinders
about half-full with water, measure the volume, and record as “volume of water alone” in Data Table 1. Tilt
the graduated cylinder and carefully slide one of the metal samples down the side. Make sure the metal
sample is completely submerged in the water. Measure the volume and record the measurement as
“volume of water + metal” in Data Table 1.
3.
Repeat Step 2 using the other metal samples. Dry all samples and then return them to their respective
places.
4.
Compute the volume of each metal sample using data from Data Table 1. Compare the density of each
metal sample, showing your work (including units), in Data Table 1.

Complete Data Table 2 by recording the mass and volume data collected by your classmates and yourself.
Using the class data, plot a graph of mass versus volume. Represent the plotted points for each metals
with a different symbol. Draw a “best fit” straight line through each group of plotted points. Determine the
slope of each of the lines in the graph. Record the slope of each line and your method of calculation in
Data Table 3. NOTE: The general equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the
value of the y-intercept. Be sure to use correct units for the slope.

Unit One Experiment – 4
Measurement and Uncertainty
EX – C – U1 – 4
Introduction:
The purpose of this experiment is to study the nature of measurement and gather data.
Background:
Everyone deals with measurements every day. We hear statements such as "The time at the tone is 10 p.m.", "It is
currently 79 degrees and sunny," and "7.8 gallons of gas - That will be $23.24."
The measured values in these three statements are printed in boldface type. Are these and other measurements
always exact? An exact measurement is a perfectly correct value containing no error. Right now, before you begin
this experiment, select the one statement below you think is most correct.
A.
B.
C.
Measurements are exact if correctly done.
Measurements may or may not be exact. It depends who did them and how they were done.
There is some inexactness in every measurement.
Safety:
Safety goggles will be worn at all times. During this experiment, no open-toe shoes are to be worn. Avoid skin
contact with solids and solutions. Exercise caution and use proper techniques in handling hot materials safely.
Dispose of all solutions in the container designated by your teacher. Wash your hands before leaving the
laboratory.
Procedure:
Perform this laboratory activity with a partner. You and your partner will determine each mass value independently
on two different balances. After you exchange data you will have four values for each mass.
On a separate sheet of paper, prepare a data table to organize and record the 48 data values you will obtain. Read
the following steps to decide how to organize and label your data table. NOTE: Your teacher will collect this table
on a separate sheet of paper.

Label a clean, dry 250 mL beaker with your name and the letter A. Your partner should label a beaker
similarly with his/her name and the letter B.
Measure the mass of your beaker to the nearest 0.01 g on two different balances. Your partner should do
the same with the other beaker. Record each mass value and the balance number in your data table.
Exchange beakers. Repeat Step 2. Record your partner's data in your data table. You should have eight
mass values and eight balance numbers. Good data values for a measurement are consistent (very close
to each other). Repeat measurements for any data values which are greatly different from the others.
Using a spatula, add four scoops of solid potassium sulfate, K2SO4(s), to Beaker A. One partner should use
two different balances to measure the mass of Beaker A and its contents. The other partner should
measure the mass of a piece of filter paper on two different balances. Record masses and balance
numbers as before.
Exchange Beaker A and filter paper. Complete two mass measurements. Record and share data. You
should now have 16 mass values and 16 balance numbers.
Use a graduated cylinder to add 18 mL (± 1 mL) of distilled water to Beaker A. Swirl gently for
approximately three minutes.
Set up a funnel with filter paper above Beaker B as shown in the diagram below.

Decant (pour) the liquid from Beaker A into the filter paper, collecting the filtered liquid in Beaker B. Do not
be concerned if some undissolved solid collects on the filter paper.
After filtering is complete, use forceps to remove the filter paper from the funnel. Place the filter paper in
Beaker A. Rinse the empty funnel with 5 mL (± 1 mL) of distilled water.
Place Beakers A and B on a hot plate adjusted to medium heat to evaporate water from both beakers.
Keep the heat setting low enough to prevent splashing, crackling, or charring. (Caution: Do not handle hot
beakers with bare hands.) When all drops of moisture have evaporated from the sides of the beakers,
remove them from the heat with beaker tongs. Allow each beaker to cool.
Measure the mass of each beaker on two different balances. Record data and exchange beakers as
before.
Save Beakers A and B until you have completed your data analysis. Then dispose of the contents of the
beakers as directed by your teacher.
Wash hands thoroughly before leaving the laboratory.

Do the ranges of mass of potassium sulfate before and after heating overlap?
3.
Is it possible that the mass of potassium sulfate after heating equals the mass of potassium sulfate before
heating? Explain.
4.
The Law of Conservation of Matter states that matter is neither created nor destroyed during any physical
or chemical change. Are experimental results obtained by you and others consistent with this law?
Explain.
5.
Sally uses Balance 4 to find the mass of Beaker A and records a value of 67.15 g. Would Sally be correct
in accepting this as an exact value? Explain.
6.
If the procedure had asked you to measure each mass only once instead of four times, would you know
more or less about the best estimate and uncertainty of your data? Explain.
7.
Should the accepted value for the mass of potassium sulfate be expressed as a single value or as a best
estimate with uncertainty? Explain with your experimental results.
8.
Based on experience and knowledge gained in this activity, would you still select the same statement you
chose in the Introduction? Explain.

Unit Two Experiment – 1
Average Atomic Mass
EX – C – U2 – 1
Introduction:
The purpose of this experiment is to determine the average atomic mass of a sample of an “element”.
Background:
If you look at the periodic table of elements, you will see decimals underneath the symbol of each element. These
are referred to as average atomic masses, most of which you notice are not whole numbers. These are weighted
averages of all isotopes of an element based on their relative abundance and individual atomic masses. For this
experiment, you will learn how to determine the mass of each isotope, find the percent abundance of each isotope,
and then calculate the average atomic mass. NOTE: Beanium is the name for the isotope (comprised of beans).
Procedure:
1.
Sort the Beanium sample into the different isotopes (by color). Diagram each isotope.
Isotope #1
Isotope #3
Isotope #2
2.
Pick one of the isotopes to be #1. Record the mass of all isotopes #1.
3.
Count the number of atoms of isotope #1 and record in the data table. Verify this number by having your
lab partner count again. If you do not agree on the number, count them again together.
4.
Calculate the average mass of one isotope#1 using the following formula and record:
Average mass of isotope #1: Total mass of all isotope #1 / Number of atoms of isotope #1
When you are through with isotope #1, put it back into the zip-lock baggie. Be careful not to spill any
atoms on the floor!
5.
Repeat steps 2 to 4 for isotopes #2 and #3. Be sure to record the mass of each isotope and the exact
number of each isotope. Record the average mass of each isotope. Be sure to return all isotopes to the
zip-lock baggie while making sure not to spill any.

% isotope #3 = (count of #3 isotope / count of ALL isotopes) X 100%
2.
Calculate the average atomic mass of Beanium.
AVERAGE ATOMIC MASS OF BEANIUM: __________ amu
Average atomic mass = (% abundance of isotope #1  average mass of isotope #1)
+ (% abundance of isotope #2  average mass of isotope #2)
+ (% abundance of isotope #3  average mass of isotope #3)
3.
Why isn’t the atomic mass of most of the elements on the periodic table of element an integer (not a
decimal)?
4.
If the heaviest isotope was more abundant, and the other two isotopes were less abundant, what would
happen to the atomic weight of Beanium? Why?

Flame Test Analysis
EX – C – U2 – 2
Introduction:
The purpose of this simulation is to identify cations based on flame tests.
Background:
Detectives in mystery novels often rush evidence from the crime scene to the lab for analysis. One common type
of analysis is referred to as a qualitative analysis, a form of analysis where identification of an unknown substance
is done and where quantity is not necessarily important. By conducting a qualitative analysis whereby cations
(positively-charged ions) are exposed to chemical tests and results are compared to the results given by known
cations, lab technicians can specifically identify the presence of cations.
Another practical application of flame tests deals with fireworks. If you are a firework aficionado (or simply a
pyromaniac), you will notice when lighting off fireworks that many have different colors. Many of those will be seen
in this experiment.
In this laboratory experiment, you will identify colors of flames for specific ions and infer relationships between ions.

3.
It is possible to get a false-positive or a false-negative result when testing for ions. Propose a situation that
could lead to a false positive for a particular ion. Choose a different ion and show how a false negative
could result. Which do you think is more likely to happen – a false-positive or a false-negative result?
Explain your reasoning.

Cation and Anion Analysis
EX – C – U2 – 3
Introduction:
The purpose of this experiment is to determine what cations and anions are present in a sample.
Background:
When bomb experts and forensic scientists test a site that has been bombed, often they will do residue analyses in
order to determine what kind of bomb was detonated. They will analyze chemicals in soil, observe heat and
temperature impacts, and other assorted components of the site in order to determine the chemical makeup of the
bomb.
The nitrate (NO3-) ion is common in most C-4 explosives such as RDX, TNT, and others, but, as was the case with
the Oklahoma City bombing, the ammonium (NH4+) ion was also present. Your goal for this experiment will be to
determine what ions are present in the sample you have been given.
Safety:
Safety goggles will be worn at all times. During this experiment, no open-toe shoes are to be worn.
Procedure:
Test 1: For CO32- ion
Fit a flask with a one hole stopper and a bent glass tube as shown on below.
Add 2 mL of the sample solution. Stopper immediately after pouring in 2 mL of 6M HCl. Be sure the bent tube is
below the surface of the limewater (saturated Ca(OH)2 solution) which should be clear (one may have to filter if it is
cloudy). Heat the flask gently to the boiling point to drive CO2 over. A white precipitate of calcium carbonate
(CaCO3) in the limewater indicated the carbonate ion in the sample.

The only other gas that could be produced would be H2S, but this will not interfere as CaS is soluble.
page 65 – C – T3 – BOOK
Test 2: For NO3- ion and NH4+ ion
Add 1 mL of the sample solution to a test tube. Add 2 mL of 6M NaOH. Warm and test for ammonia (NH3) vapor.
NH4  OH 
H2O  NH3 (g )
Ammonia vapor will turn moist red litmus paper to blue. Be sure to hold the paper above the test tube so that it
does not come into contact with the NaOH. If ammonia is present, then the ammonium ion is also present. Also, if
ammonia is present, carefully boil the solution until no change is produced with a new piece of moist litmus paper.
The boiling will remove the ammonia which prevents testing for NO3-.
Add about a quarter-inch of metallic zinc to the test tube and place a loose cotton wad (to prevent splattering of the
NaOH solution) into the test tube. Warm and test for the presence of ammonia vapor while being careful not to get
NaOH solution on the test paper. The zinc reduces the NO3- to NH3 and reacts with NaOH to produce hydrogen
gas. However, the hydrogen gas will not bother the ammonia vapor test. It takes several minutes of heating before
this test appears.

Precipitation Reactions
EX – C – U4 – 1
Introduction:
The purpose of this experiment is to observe, identify, and write balanced equations for precipitation reactions.
Background:
The majority of ionic solid are soluble in water. Those that are not account for the formation of an insoluble salt
called a precipitate. The formation of a precipitate is predicted by using the general rules for solubility of ionic
compounds.
Ionic compounds are made up of positive ions (cations) and negative ions (anions) held together by the attractive,
electrostatic forces between the oppositely-charged particles. When soluble ionic compounds are placed in water,
they break apart to give separate ions, a process known as dissociation. When two ionic solutions are combined,
the resulting mixture contains positive and negative ions from each solution. The mixing allow new combinations of
ions and, if one or more of these new ion combinations happens to be insoluble in water, it falls out of solution as a
solid compound. The insoluble product formed in this way is called a precipitate.
As an example of this, think of the addition of sodium chloride to a solution of silver nitrate.
Sodium chloride: NaCl Na+(aq) + Cl–(aq)
Silver nitrate:
AgNO3  Ag+(aq) + NO3– (aq)
Na+(aq) + Cl–(aq) + Ag+(aq) + NO3– (aq)  Na+(aq) + NO3– (aq) + AgCl(s)
The equation above is called a complete ionic equation. It shows the ions that are present, even if some are not
involved in the formation of the precipitate. The ions that do not create the precipitate are referred to as spectator
ions. An equation that doesn’t show those spectator ions is called a net ionic equation. The net ionic equation
for the reaction, then, is as follows:
Ag+(aq) + Cl– (aq)  AgCl(s)
In this experiment, you will mix six different ionic solutions in all possible combinations of two to determine which
combinations result in precipitates being formed. Based on your results, you will write complete equations for each
reaction.
Safety:
Safety goggles will be worn at all times. During this experiment, no open-toe shoes are to be worn.
Procedure:
1.
Mix each pair of solutions within each set on a separate spot plate depression using no more than two
drops of each solution. Be careful not to contaminate the dropper from one bottle with a different solution.
Simply shake the plate lightly to mix the solutions.
2.
Create the following charts for your data section to keep track of your precipitates. Place a “ppt” in the box
if a precipitate forms. Write “no rxn” in the box if no reaction is observed.

Observe each mixture carefully for signs of a precipitate Since many precipitates are light in color and
difficult to notice, you may wish to vary the color of the background behind the plate with different colors of
paper. Record evidence of any precipitate in your data tables.
4.
Use distilled water to rinse the plate into the spent chemical container.
5.
After completely reacting the chemicals in set one and set two, clean your work area and wash your hands
thoroughly before leaving the laboratory.
Conclusion/Discussion:
1.
For each combination of solutions that gave a precipitate, write correct formulas, not equations, for the two
new compounds that could form with the ions present. (HINT: Remember to balanced charges.) Do so in
the following tables. IF NO NEW PRODUCTS ARE FORMED, PUT AN “X” IN THE BOX. ALSO INCLUDE

Pipet Rockets and Synthesis
EX – C – U4 – 2
Introduction:
The purpose of this experiment is to examine the relationship between hydrogen and oxygen gases generated in a
synthesis reaction and correlate the optimum proportion for launching a pipet rocket.
Background:
Hydrogen and oxygen gases react with each other in a very quick, exothermic manner. The explosiveness of this
reaction is greatest when the hydrogen and oxygen gases are mixed in just the right proportion. In this experiment,
you are generating hydrogen and oxygen gases and testing their explosiveness. Your final goal will be to find the
most powerful mixture and then use it to launch a pipet rocket as far as you can.
Safety:




Safety goggles will be worn at all times.
No open-toe shoes are to be worn.
This experiment involves mini-explosions. FOLLOW ALL TEACHER GUIDELINES OF TESTING AND
PREPARATION SAFETY!!!
Dispose of all materials according to the instructions of your teacher. DO NOT DISPOSE OF IN THE SINK
OR TRASH!!!
Procedure:
1.
Fill a Petri dish ¾ full of tap water. This will serve as your water source and recycling supply.
Calibrating the Bulb of Pipet:
2.
Fill the bulb completely with water. Squeeze the bulb and dip the mouth in the Petri dish of water and
release the squeeze. Then, with the bulb mouth held upward, squeeze a second time, just to the point
where the water inside the pipet starts to come out. Then, still squeezing, dip the mouth into the Petri dish
again and draw up the remaining water needed to fill the bulb.
3.
Squeeze the water out into a 10 mL graduated cylinder. Leave enough water in the bulb to fill the launch
nozzle up to the line already on the bulb. The amount of water in the graduated cylinder is the volume of
your gas chamber. Record this volume. Divide this volume by 6 and record this volume. Refill your gas
chamber (bulb of pipet). Squeeze out your calculated number of the water into the graduated cylinder.
Use a permanent marker and mark the water level. Make sure your bulb is dry first. Squeeze out another
1/6 of water and mark again. This should serve to increment the bulb into 6 equal volumes. (Note that
there will still be some water left in the bulb.) Now refill your bulb with water.
Setting Up the Gas Generators:
4.
The generators are plastic film canisters with nozzle-fitted caps containing the proper chemicals. Obtain a
canister for hydrogen and oxygen. Do not mix chemicals until ready for gas production.
5.
To generate hydrogen, place enough 1.0M HCl (hydrochloric acid) in the canister labeled “hydrogen” to rise
up to 1 cm. When you are ready for gas production, add a few pieces of magnesium and put the cap back
on. Then set the generator in your Petri dish.
6.
To generate oxygen, place enough H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) in the canister labeled “oxygen” to rise up to
1 cm. When you are ready for gas production, add 5 drops of KI (potassium iodide, the catalyst), put the
cap back on, and swirl. Then set the generator in your Petri dish.
page 70 – C – T3 – BOOK
7.
If gas production becomes slow, check your generator. For example, you may need to add more
magnesium to the hydrochloric acid if the magnesium is gone. If there is still magnesium, you may need to
add more hydrochloric acid. You may also need to do the same for the oxygen generator by adding more
hydrogen peroxide or potassium iodide.
Collecting Gas by Water Displacement:
8.
Once your gas generators are producing and the lids are on, take your water-filled graduated bulb and
place it with the mouth of the bulb downward over the nozzle of the generator. The fit should be loose,
enabling water to leak out as the bulb collects the gas. As soon as you have the amount of gas required,
remove the nozzle.
Launching the Pipet Bulb:
9.
Fill your graduated bulb with the required ratio of gases. (There should still be a little water left.) Take your
bulb over to the launch area. Place the wires on the launch pad into the bulb and push the launch button.
Record the distance traveled.
Collecting and Testing Different Ratios:
10.
Begin collecting oxygen gas in your bulb. Once it is 1/6 full, move the bulb from the oxygen generator to
the hydrogen generator and continue collecting until full, remembering some water is left. This gives you a
1:5 mixture of oxygen gas to hydrogen gas. Launch it and record its distance. Then repeat this procedure
making the switch-over at various points so as to create mixtures of various proportions as listed in Data
Table 1. Record the distances.

Introduction:
The purpose of this experiment is to examine the relationship between amounts of reactants and products in a
chemical reaction.
Background:
Although every chemical reaction involves using chemicals, it is common for individuals to overuse chemicals and
therefore waste them. In this experiment, you will examine the stoichiometry – the relationship between amounts of
materials – of the reaction between calcium chloride and sodium phosphate.
You will also explore the concepts of limiting and excess reagents. A limiting reagent is completely used up in a
reaction. The amount of product that can be formed depends on the quantity of limiting reagent present. An
excess reagent is so called because, after the reaction is complete, there is still an amount left unreacted. Finally,
you will estimate the actual yield of one product, calcium phosphate, and compare it with the theoretical yield
predicted from the balanced equation.
Safety:

Safety goggles will be worn at all times.
No open-toe shoes are to be worn.
Dispose of all materials according to the instructions of your teacher. DO NOT DISPOSE OF IN THE SINK
OR TRASH WITHOUT TEACHER APPROVAL!!!
Procedure:
Part 1:
1.
Number, with the numerals 1 – 6, six large, clean, and dry test tubes. (NOTE: Test tubes NEED to be the
same length and diameter for accurate measuring during Part 2 of the experiment.)
2.
Mount two 50-mL burets on a ring stand, using a double buret clamp. Identify the left buret as “Na3PO4”
and the right buret as “CaCl2”.
3.
Obtain 50 mL of 0.5M Na3PO4 and 50 mL of 0.5M CaCl2. Fill the labeled burets with these solutions,
making sure that the solutions are below the 0 mL mark of each buret.
4.
Using the filled burets, add the solutions to the six test tubes according to the following table. Place each
test tube in a test-tube rack.

Keep the remaining solutions in the burets for later use. Record all volumes used as accurately as possible
in Data Table 1. NOTE: Use the correct number of decimal places.
5.
Seal each tube with a rubber stopper. Mix the contents by inverting each test tube three times. Do not
shake.
6.
Leave the test tubes undisturbed in the test-tube rack for at least ten minutes.
page 73 – C – T3 – BOOK
7.
Measure the height of the precipitate in each tube to the nearest 0.1 cm and record the measurement in
Data Table 1.
Part 2:
1.
The liquid above a settled precipitate is referred to as a supernatant. You can test the supernatant for
excess reagent. With a dropper pipet, remove a sample of supernatant from tube 1. Add three drops of
supernatant to each of two adjacent depressions on a reaction plate. Rinse the dropper with distilled water
and repeat this procedure for tubes 2 – 6.
2.
Add three drops of 0.5M Na3PO4 to one set of samples from tubes 1 – 6.
3.
Add three drops of 0.5M CaCl2 to the other set of samples.
4.
Record the results of these spot-plate tests in Data Table 2.
5.
Follow your teacher’s instructions for proper disposal of the materials.

Conclusion/Discussion:
1.
What is the balanced equation for the reaction that occurred between calcium chloride and sodium
phosphate? Include states of matter for each chemical.
2.
Calculate the number of moles of calcium chloride and sodium phosphate added to each tube. (HINT:
Calculate how many moles would be in 1 mL and then multiply by the number of milliliters in the sample.)
Enter those results in Data Table 1.
3.
For the tube with the greatest amount of precipitate, calculate the mole ratio between calcium chloride and
sodium phosphate.
4.
Plot two separate bar graphs showing the height of calcium phosphate (cm) (on the y-axis) versus tube
number (on the x-axis). One graph should show the height of calcium phosphate actually obtained in each
tube, and the other should show the maximum theoretical number of moles (also on the y-axis) of calcium
phosphate in each tube. Number the tubes 1 – 6 from left to right.
page 75 – C – T3 – BOOK
page 76 – C – T3 – BOOK
5.
In which tube was there little or no reaction of the supernatant with either calcium chloride or sodium
phosphate? What is the mole ratio of the reactants in this tube?
6.
How are the two graphs similar?
7.
Examining class data from conferring with other students, explain any inconsistency you observe in the
results.
8.
Based on the results of this experiment, develop a hypothesis to explain how the stoichiometry could be
determined for a reaction which forms a gas (for example, calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid
reacting) instead of a precipitate.

Course Description:
Chemistry is the study of the structure, properties, and composition of substances and the changes that
substances undergo. Laboratory experiences are used to reinforce classroom presentations. Chemistry
is an essential class for students considering nursing, engineering, medical, or scientific areas of study.
Algebra and geometry are prerequisites for this course.
Course Objectives:
Course objectives for all science courses can be accessed here:
http://wp.lps.org/science/curriculumobjectives/ .
District Common Assessments (DCAs):
The data provided by the district common assessments are used to gauge the extent to which students
are meeting state standards, to provide students and parents with information about student progress, to
enhance school improvement planning, and to improve instruction.
The two district common assessments provided this terms are as follows:
 Measurement and Matter
 Reactions and Stoichiometry
District Grading Policy/Criteria:
Quality, thoughtful assessment facilitates improvement in learning for students and teachers.
 Formative assessment provides ongoing information and guidance about student needs to facilitate
student learning towards objectives and guide future actions taken by both student and teacher.
 Summative assessment provides a measurement of student learning of objectives at the conclusion
of a specific instructional period.
 Report card grade reflects the achievement level of learning objectives at the end of a specific
grading period. A combination of formative and summative assessments comprise the final grade,
with the vast majority of the grade determined by summative assessment.

Class Outline:





You will be expected to participate in all class discussions and will read any and all material assigned
in order to prepare for these discussions. Even though the reading in chemistry is not like those of
other subjects, reading and practice is expected and required.
You will participate in and document laboratory experiments (generally once a week on average).
You, as an individual, will submit a lab report from what you performed and concluded in certain
experiments. Although you will be working in a group, you as an individual will document your
findings. Additionally, a specified format for laboratory experiment reports will be handed out to you
and adhered to throughout the course of the term.
You will do assignments from each chapter of the book as indicated by the instructor to reinforce
important material covered in the course of that chapter.
Any project in the course of the term related to concepts you have learned or will learn during the
course of the term will be entered as a grade in the Summative category.
The final exam will be developed by your instructor and administered at the end of the term.
Classroom Rules/Expectations:








EVERYONE is to be treated with respect at all times. People of different gender, race, religion,
and sexual orientation contribute to a better experience to be shared by all in and out of class. It is in
your best interests as well as enjoyment of the class to cooperate, share, and contribute to all people
in class as best you can. Anything to disrupt respect in the classroom will be addressed immediately
according to school and district policy.
It is important for all classroom participants, teachers and students, to be punctual and always
prepared. Although we cannot always avoid being late or unprepared, habitual tardiness and lack of
preparation will not be allowed and will be reflected in your grade. You are considered tardy if you
enter class following the bell ringing to signal the beginning of class. During third block classes, you
may still be counted tardy if returning from lunch late.
Time will not be permitted in class for doing homework. Albeit guided practice and independent
practice will be done in class, time does not permit doing homework (hence the name, homework).
Additionally, as is also done in college, should one section end in class, you may be reasonably
expected to move on to a new section. In other words, there will be no idle time in class.
You will receive a copy of the lab safety rules in addition to this syllabus. Both must be signed and
adhered to throughout the course of the semester. NOTE: If a laboratory experiment requires you to
wear any personal protective equipment (i.e., goggles, apron, etc.), they must be worn at all times.
Failure to do so will result in your dismissal from the laboratory experiment and consequently a lower
laboratory grade.
No electronic devices (i.e., mobile phones, headphones, etc.) will be allowed in the classroom
or computer lab. If you have a question about this or related guidelines, please see me before
bringing an item into class. Should you bring such an item, it will be confiscated and referred to
administration.
No material should be opened, written, or applied in class that will interfere with the maintenance of
classroom management and continuity. This includes, but is not limited to, magazines, separate
reading material, personal notes or notes related to other classes, application of makeup, styling of
hair, etc. Any materials which are not related to class that are used or created during class will be
confiscated. Personal notes will not be returned at any time.
Books are to be covered at all times. Books should be covered with papers, not with adhesive
plastic. Also, at the end of the semester, you will be required to vacate the book of all papers and the
cover you have put on the book. Any damage incurred to the book by not covering or mistreatment
and negligence of the book will be charged to you at the end of the semester.
As this class demands participation and preparedness, it is in your best interests to come to class
fully rested. Sleeping/napping is not acceptable behavior in class and will result in dismissal from the
page A-4 – C – T3 – BOOK

classroom. Such activity logically suggests possible drug usage or suspicious behavior and will be
investigated accordingly by the school nurse or administration.
You are expected to bring a pencil, notebook, calculator, and textbook with you to class every day.
You will be issued a textbook during the first week of class. It is your responsibility to report any
damage that may already be present with the textbook you receive so you are not fined for that
damage at the end of the course.
Classroom Preparation and Grading:
Full preparation for classroom discussion and participation will most likely require anywhere from thirty
minutes to an hour or more a day outside of class. This includes reviewing notes, reading the material
from the book, and working on problems. Some days, including those before and after more intense
concepts, will require more time. It is your responsibility to be adequately prepared and make sufficient
time reservations outside of class to come to class prepared.
My means of grading the same as those of the Lincoln Southwest High School Science Department and
are as follows:
A = 90.0 – 100.0
B+ = 85.0 – 89.9
D+ = 65.0 – 69.9
B = 80.0 – 84.9
D = 60.0 – 64.9
C+ = 75.0 – 79.9
F = 0.0 – 59.9
C = 70.0 – 74.9
Although the points a test or quiz is worth might change, as follows is the normal scheme for
percentages of your final grade in this course:
Tests/Lab Activities (Summative): Approximately 70%
 You may retake any test objective on the condition that you showed relevant work on that test
objective throughout the entirety of the test objective. Retakes will be provided on specified dates.
 Partial credit will be provided on all tests as long as you show RELEVANT work. On tests, work
MUST be shown to receive full credit. Otherwise, the logical conclusion to draw from seeing a right
answer is that a student has cheated or guessed, neither of which demonstrates that the student has
mastered the associated objectives. Failure to show relevant work on an objective will prohibit the
student taking the exam from retesting that exam objective.
Quizzes (Formative): Approximately 20%
 Quizzes cannot be retaken, and you may expect a quiz at least twice a week.
 Partial credit will be provided on all quizzes as long as you show RELEVANT work. On quizzes,
work MUST be shown to receive full credit. Otherwise, the logical conclusion to draw from seeing a
right answer is that a student has cheated or guesses, neither of which demonstrates that the student
has mastered the associated objective. Quizzes will all be based on homework problems you have
done, and you may use the homework you have done directly on the quizzes.
Homework (Formative): 0%
 Homework will be assigned every day save possibly on test days.
 Homework is designed to help you gauge your understanding of material. Credit is given for
homework indirectly in the quizzes. Homework will be reviewed and discussed the following day for
understanding, but a grade will not be assigned for it. Statistically, there is a direct correlation
between students who do their own homework and ask questions to higher test grades.
 If you are not doing well in homework, seek help immediately from me.
 Homework will directly correlate with in-class quizzes.
Final exam(s) (Summative): Approximately 10%
 There are NO retests for a final exam(s).
page A-5 – C – T3 – BOOK
Grades will be made available as often as is possible and feasible to that you are able to track your
progress in this class. If the grades made available are not as current as the most recently graded
assignment, feel free to ask me what your current grade is and I will be more than happy to share it with
you.
Classroom procedures (other reasonable procedures may be created as the semester progresses):





Raised hand. When I raise my hand in class, that signal indicates that conversation with any other
individual should stop until I ask for a response from you. Talking when I raise my hand is
disrespectful and will be addressed accordingly. Similarly, when another student has his/her hand
raised or is talking to me during classroom discussion, the same policy is in effect.
Visitors. When a visitor enters the room, that is someone who is not normally in class (i.e., the
principal, another teacher, etc.), it is expected that you will respect those visitors and myself as is
normally expected.
Tests and quizzes. When a test or quiz is being given, at no time should anyone be talking. If you
have a question, silently raise your hand and I will assist you as much as I can. NOTE: Any talking
or suspicious communication (including any nonverbal communication) made during or after
a test or quiz prior to teacher approval will result in the removal of your test or quiz, an
automatic disciplinary referral, a replacement test without the use of written aids, and no
ability to retest. If you continue to talk or otherwise communicate with others after this has
occurred, you will be removed from the classroom and appropriate consequences will follow.
Tests and quizzes are some of the greatest assessment and grading tools at your disposal, and
interrupting another individual's self-assessment is disrespectful and, more importantly, damaging to
the students still taking their tests or quizzes.
Substitute teachers. If I am unable to be in class and have a substitute teacher take my place for
any amount of time, you will be expected and required to provide the utmost respect for the substitute
teacher and extend the teacher every courtesy and fulfill every request. Failure to do so will result in
administrative action upon my return. Should I receive no negative comments from the substitute
teacher upon my return and you wish to have the teacher return should I be absent again, I will
personally request that substitute return. However, should I receive no negative comments from the
substitute teacher upon my return and you do not wish to have the teacher return should I be absent
again, I will personally request that the substitute will not return and I will make other arrangements.
Retests. A student will only be allowed to retest an objective or objectives if the student has done
relevant work for all problems on the objective(s) of the test. Failure to do so will preclude the
student from being able to retest that exam. Also, once a student has begun a retest, the student
may only have the time they are in there for that part of the day to do the retest. As in a normal
testing period, the time given during that day of the retest being taken is the only time given – once
you begin the test on that day, it must be completed during the allotted time. Failure to retest before
the deadline for retesting will result in the inability to retest over that unit. The grade received from
the retest will be the grade entered, whether higher or lower than the original test objective grade.
Other important notes:



GET HELP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Students who put off asking questions or getting help when
they need it get further and further behind. E-mail me ([email protected] - the best way to get a hold of
me outside of school), try calling me, hunt me down between classes, during class, or whenever is
convenient.
Check your grades often. From previous experience, students who do not keep accurate
recollections of their grades and find out at the last minute have difficult times trying to get the grades
they desire (i.e., overstudying for final exams, etc.).
Let your parents know how to contact me. If you happen to get behind at all, it helps tremendously
for your parents and me to collaborate on an effective way of helping you.

Keep a positive mental attitude. Chemistry will undoubtedly be a much different experience for you,
but it is a very fun subject.

Compound Name and Formula Writing
Metals/Nonmetals:








The charge of the metal ions in Group 1A is 1+.
The charge of the metal ions in Group 2A is 2+.
The charge of the metal ions in Group 3A is 3+.
The charge of the transition metals and such elements as Sn, Pb, Hg, and Sb may have
more than one charge.
The charge of the nonmetal ions in Group 5A is 3-.
The charge of the nonmetal ions in Group 6A is 2-.
The charge of the nonmetal ions in Group 7A is 1-.
Group 8A has no ions.
Polyatomic ions:


Their charge is always negative except for NH4+.
Memorize or look at the table on page 147 for the name, formula, and charge of the
polyatomic ions.
Forming ionic compounds:




Compounds have electrical neutrality. Na+ and S2- must be written as Na2S since you
need two positive charges to balance the 2- charge on the S. Fe3+ and O2- must be
written Fe2O3 since you need two 3+ charges to balance three 2- charges (6 + -6 = 0).
The positive ion is always written before the negative ion.
If two or more polyatomic ions are used in the formula, enclose the polyatomic ion in
parentheses and put the number of polyatomic ions you need on the outside of the
parentheses as a subscript. For example, Mg2+ and OH- must be written Mg(OH)2 since
you need two negative charges of the OH- ion to balance the 2+ charge on the Mg.
Do not write the charge of the ion in the formula. For example, sodium sulfide is Na2S,
not Na2+S2-, 2Na+S2-, or Na2+S2-.
Naming ionic compounds:





When a metal is involved, the name of the metal is used. For example, magnesium
becomes “magnesium ion” when it becomes a cation.
When the metal ion can have two different charges, the charge of the ion is indicated by
writing it in Roman numerals in parentheses after the name of the metal. For example,
Cu+ is written as the Copper (I) ion. Cu2+ is written as the Copper (II) ion.
When a nonmetal is involved, ide is added as a suffix to the root word of the nonmetal
(usually the first syllable). For example, phosphorus become the “phosphide ion” as
oxygen becomes the “oxide ion.”
Polyatomic ions retain their names.
To name a metal and a nonmetal together, combine the ion names. For example, when
Copper (II) ion is together with the nitride ion, the compound is Copper (II) nitride.
page A-13 – C – T3 – BOOK
Naming binary molecular compounds:

The first nonmetal gets its full name. The second nonmetal gets its root word + ide. Both
nonmetals get a prefix denoting how many atoms are used to make the compound.
However, when only one atom is used in the first nonmetal, the prefix mono is not
attached.
Examples:
o CO is carbon monoxide, not monocarbon monoxide.
o N2O5 is dinitrogen pentaoxide.
Prefixes:
o 1 atom – mono (or mon if it begins with an “o”)
o 2 atoms – di
o 3 atoms – tri
o 4 atoms – tetra
o 5 atoms – penta
o 6 atoms – hexa
o 7 atoms – hepta
o 8 atoms – octa
o 9 atoms – nona
o 10 atoms – deca
Naming acids:

Use the list of acids to name them.
Examples:
o HC2H3O2: acetic acid
o H2CO3: carbonic acid
o HNO3: nitric acid
o H2SO4: sulfuric acid
o H3PO4: phosphoric acid
o HCl: hydrochloric acid
o HBr: hydrobromic acid
o HI: hydroiodic acid
o HF: hydrofluoric acid

Rules for Balancing Equations:
1. Be sure to write all the correct formulas for all the reactants and products in the reaction.
In some cases, you may also need to write in parentheses the state of matter they are in.
(i.e., Fe(s), Br2(l), etc.)
2. Write the formulas for the reactants on the left and the formulas for the products on the
right with a yield sign () in between. If two of more reactants are involved, separate
their formulas with a plus sign (+). When finished, you will have a skeleton equation.
3. Count the number of atoms of each element in the reactants and products. To be as
easy as possible, a polyatomic ion appearing the exact same on both sides of the
equation can be counted as a single unit.
page A-17 – C – T3 – BOOK
4. Balance the elements one at a time by using coefficients (the numbers out in front of the
formulas). When no coefficient is written, it is assumed to be 1. It is best to begin the
balancing operation with elements that appear only once of each side of the equation.
You must not attempt to balance an equation by changing the subscripts in the chemical
formula of a substance.
5. Check each atom or polyatomic ion to be sure that the equation is balanced.
6. Make sure all the coefficients are in the lowest possible ratio that balances.

What is gram atomic mass (gam)?
Gram atomic mass is the average mass of an element per mole. This is shown on the Periodic Table of Elements
underneath the symbol of the element.
What is the gram molecular mass (gmm) and how is it calculated?
The gram molecular mass of any molecular compound is the mass of one mole of that compound. To calculate it,
add the gram molecular masses of the atoms that make it up. For example, the mass of water would be calculated
by doing the following (since there are two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom in each mole of water):
2 mol H 1.0 g H 1 mol O 16.0 g O


What is the gram formula mass (gfm) and how is it calculated?
The gram formula mass of any ionic compound is the mass of one mole of the formula unit of that ionic compound.
It is calculated the exact same way as the gram molecular mass of a molecule except that it is done for an ionic
compound. To calculate, simply add up the atomic masses of the ions in the formula of the compound. For
example, in magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH2)) where the gmm of Mg is 24.3 g, H is 1.0 g, and O is 16.0 g, the gfm
for magnesium hydroxide would be calculated as follows:
1 x 24.3 g Mg + 2 x 1.0 g H + 2 x 16.0 g O = 58.3 g Mg(OH)2

To calculate percent composition of an element in a compound:
Experimentally:
% mass of Element A =
grams of Element A
 100%
grams of compound
For example, if a compound is made up of 7.65 g hydrogen and 5.25 g carbon, the total mass of the compound is
12.90 g. To calculate the percent mass of hydrogen in the compound, you would divide 7.65 g by 12.90 g and
multiply by 100% to get a percent composition of 59.3% hydrogen.
Theoretically:
% mass of Element A =
grams of Element A in 1 mol of the compound
 100%
molar mass of the compound
For example, the molar mass of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is 2 x 1.01 g + 2 x 16.00 g = 34.02 g. Out of that 34.02
g, the mass of hydrogen that is in that mole of hydrogen peroxide is 2 x 1.01 g = 2.02 g. To calculate the percent
composition of hydrogen, you would divide 2.02 g by 34.02 g and multiply by 100% to get a percent composition of
5.94% hydrogen.
page A-19 – C – T3 – BOOK
To calculate the mass of an element in a given amount of a compound:
mass of compound mass of element in 1 mol of the compound

1
molar mass of the compound
For example, if you were asked to calculate the mass of carbon in 48.3 g of methane (CH4), you would know that
for every molar mass of methane, which is approximately 16.0 g, 12.0 g of that mole of methane is made up of
carbon. Therefore, to calculate the mass present in 48.3 g of methane,
g of carbon =
12.0 g C
48.3 g CH4

 36.2 g carbon
1
16.0 g CH4
To calculate the empirical formula of a compound:
Example: What is the empirical formula of a compound that is 10.0% carbon, 0.80% hydrogen, and 89.1%
chlorine.
1. Realize that in a 100.0 g sample of this compound, 10.0 g would be carbon, 0.80 g would be hydrogen, and
89.1 g would be chlorine.
2. Convert the grams of each of the elements to moles.
10.0 g C 1 mol C

 0.833 mol C
12.0 g C
1
0.80 g H 1 mol H

 0.80 mol H
1
1.0 g H
89.1 g Cl 1 mol Cl

 2.51 mol Cl
35.5 g Cl
1
3. The mole ratio is C0.833H0.80Cl2.51. This is not the correct empirical formula though because it is not the lowest
whole-number ratio. To do this, we need to divide all the molar quantities by the smallest number of moles.
This will give a 1 for the element with the smallest number of moles.
0.833 mol C
 1.0 mol C
0.80
0.80 mol H
 1.0 mol H
0.80
2.51 mol Cl
 3.1 mol Cl
0.80
4. The mole ratio is now CHCl3.1. Given how close the 3.1 is to 3, the empirical formula for this is CHCl3. If the
mole ration was something like CHCl0.5, we would need to multiply each molar quantity by a value such as 2 to
get all whole numbers, resulting in C2H2Cl.
To calculate the molecular formula of a compound given molar mass:
Example: What is the molecular formula of the compound whose molar mass is 180.0 g and the empirical formula
is CH2O?
1. Calculate the empirical formula mass. In this case, the molar mass of CH2O would be 30.0 g.
2. Divide the compound’s molar mass by the empirical formula mass. In this case, you would divide 180.0 g by
30.0 g to get a value of approximately 6.
3. Multiply the subscripts in the empirical formula by the value you calculated in step 2 to get the molecular
formula. Multiplying the example empirical formula subscripts by 6, the answer would be C6H12O6.

formed (i.e. Ca replacing Ag in
AgCl has a 2+ charge, resulting
in CaCl2 for charges to
balance).
If a displaced element exists in
a diatomic state in nature, be
sure to indicate this (i.e. H 
H2).
Balance the equation.
Switch around the two cations
that need to be replaced with

balance charges in the new
compound formed (i.e. Ca
replacing Ag in AgCl has a 2+
charge, resulting in CaCl2 for
charges to balance).
Balance the equation.
If there is a sufficient amount of
oxygen, carbon dioxide and
water will be the products
(complete combustion). If
there is an insufficient amount
of oxygen, carbon monoxide
and water will be the products
(incomplete combustion).

Since you have 1.00 kg of carbon but only need 0.113 kg of carbon, carbon is the
excess reagent, meaning Fe2O3 is the limiting reagent.
Excess reagent = 1.00 kg C – 0.113 kg C = 0.887 kg C = 0.89 kg C
