Finding the Solubility of Ca(OH)2

Aim:

----

To determine the solubility of Ca(OH)2.

To carry out the aim of this experiment an experiment needs to be

planned and carried out. I am given the information that the

solubility of the Ca(OH)2 is between 1 to 1.5g per dm3. Also I am

given a standard solution of 1M hydrochloric acid (HCl) which may have

to be diluted to suit the measuring needs of the experiment.

Apparatus:

[IMAGE]

* 1g of Ca(OH)2.

* Pipette 25cm3

* 2 x 500cm3 beaker

* Conical flask 250cm3

* Burette

* White tile

* Burette stand

* Stand

* Indicator

* 300cm3 of Hydrochloric acid- standard solution (concentration of

0.05M)

* Distilled water

* Filter Paper

* Stirring rod

* Funnel

Method:

* Add 1g of Ca(OH)2 to 300cm3 of distilled water in a 500cm3 beaker.

Keep stirring the solution till the solid stops dissolving. This

leaves a saturated solution.

* Filter off the excess solid into another 500cm3 beaker using a

damp filter paper (distilled water).

* Repeat the filtration of the solution till there is no solid left.

Making sure to stir the solution in between the filtrations and

clean out the other beaker with plenty of water.

* This should leave 300cm3 of Ca(OH)2 saturated solution which will

be used in the titration experiment needed to find the

concentration of the solution.

* Use some of the Ca(OH)2 to rinse out the conical flask and the

pipette. Use some HCl to rinse out the burette.

  • Hydrated Potassium Aluminum Sulfate

    1016 Words  | 3 Pages

    The purpose for this lab was to use aluminum from a soda can to form a chemical compound known as hydrated potassium aluminum sulfate. In the lab aluminum waste were dissolved in KOH or potassium sulfide to form a complex alum. The solution was then filtered through gravity filtration to remove any solid material. 25 mLs of sulfuric acid was then added while gently boiling the solution resulting in crystals forming after cooling in an ice bath. The product was then collected and filter through vacuum filtration. Lastly, crystals were collected and weighed on a scale.

  • An Investigation into the Identification, Properties, and Synthesis of an Unknown Ionic Compound

    1163 Words  | 3 Pages

    This paper describes the methods used in the identification, investigation of properties, and synthesis of an unknown compound. The compound was identified as calcium nitrate by a variety of tests. When the compound was received, it was already known to be one of twelve possible ionic compounds. The flame test identified the presence of the calcium anion in the compound. The compound tested positive for the nitrate cation using the iron sulfate test. At this point it was hypothesized that the compound was calcium nitrate. Reactivity tests and quantitative analysis comparing the unknown compound with calcium nitrate supported this hypothesis. Synthesis reactions were then carried out and analyzed.

    Well, this looks like its using some calculations so what I would do is take my 0.045 M and equal it to the 0.25 mL of NH3 and multiply that by 45.0 mL and multiply it by 10 with an exponent of negative 3. Once all of that is multiplied together we should get an answer of 0.01135 moles of our HCI. Now we can find our “Concentration” Which means we would divide our moles (0.01125) to our vol in liters which is 0.025, once we do that, we get an answer of 0.045M of our NH3. Well, since we are on the topic of pH we know that we can use the formula: pH = -log (H3O+). Then what we would do is plug everything into the formula: pH equals -log (2.4 multiplied by 10 (with an exponent of -5). Once we find the answer to this and we add up all of our calculations, we can come to a conclusion that the answer is: 4.6197 as our pH.

    If there is not enough energy no reaction takes place. In a solution of 0.5M hydrochloric acid, there are less hydrochloric acid particles compared to that of 2M hydrochloric acid, therefore, there are less particles to react with magnesium particles thus meaning less chance of collisions between the two reactants: [IMAGE] Therefore, as the concentration of the hydrochloric acid is increased, the chances of collisions increase thus giving a faster rate of reaction. Apparatus: Beaker Hydrochloric acid Distilled water Measuring cylinder Pipette Test tubes Test tube rack Diagram: [IMAGE] Method: Measure out 10cm3 of hydrochloric acid, as the concentration requires, for each concentration its composition is: Moles Volume HCl Volume Water 2M 10 cm³ 0 cm³ 1.5M 7.5 cm³ 2.5 cm³ 1M 5 cm³ 5 cm³ 0.5M 2.5 cm³ 7.5 cm³ 0M 0 cm³

  • Chemistry: What Is Solubility?

    242 Words  | 1 Pages

    Solubility is defined as the maximum amount of a substance that will dissolve in a given amount of another substance at constant temperature and pressure. Solubility is typically expressed in terms of maximum volume or mass of the solute that dissolve in a given volume or mass of a solvent. Traditionally the equilibrium solubility at a given pH and temperature is determined by the shake flask method. According to this method the compound is added in surplus to a certain medium and shaken at a predetermined time. The saturation is confirmed by observation of the presence of un-dissolved material. Saturation can also be reached if the solvent and excess solute is heated and then allowed to cool to the given temperature. After filtration of the
