Experiment 5 Date ____________

Determination of the Relative Molecular Mass of a Volatile Liquid

Materials and Apparatus

o Conical flask with tinfoil capo Chloroform, o Water bath, o Torsion balance.

Procedure

o Weigh the “empty” conical flask (full of air) o Put in some chloroform [about1 cm3].o Put flask into boiling water up to its neck until all the chloroform has evaporated o Cool under the tap and then dry.o When all the chloroform has condensedo Re weigh.

o Repeat two more times and take the average mass.

o Convert the volume of the Specific Gravity bottle from the volume at 100oC to STP o Calculate the mass of 22.4 L [22400 cm3] of the chloroform. [at STP]o This gives us the mass of a mole which is the Relative Molecular Mass

Explanation

o At the start the flask is filled with air.o After heating it is filled with CHCl3.o When cooled it is again filled with air (more or less) + a small mass of CHCl3

[mass that filled the bottle.]o The change in mass gives the mass of CHCl3 that filled the bottle of CHCl3 at 100oCo Convert this number of cm3 of chloroform to its STP volume using

P1V1 / T1 = P2V2 / T2

o Mass of chloroform at STP volume should be converted to mass of

22.4 L [22400 cm3] = 1 mole = RMM

© Peter J Jackson 2012 17

Page 18: Leaving Certificate  · Web viewMany commercial bleaches are solutions of sodium hypochlorite [NaOCl] or calcium hypochlorite [Ca(OCl) 2]The bleach is diluted to bring its concentration

Results

• Mass of bottle + air =

• Mass of bottle + air + chloroform =

• Mass of chloroform = y

• Volume of bottle cm3 [V2] = cm3

• Atmospheric pressure [P2] =

• T1 standard temperature = 273 K

• Temperature K ( 273 + water oC) [T2] = 273 + 100 = 373 K

• Volume at STP (V1= P2V2T1/ T2P1) = z

• Mass of z cm3 of chloroform = y

• Mass of 22400 cm3 [22.4 L] = y * 22400 = z

Conclusion

The relative molecular mass of chloroform [CHCl3] is 119.5 [12 +1 + (35.5 * 3)] or methanol CH3OH = 32 [12 +(1*3) +16+1]]

Our experimental value is = ________

Calculations

0.1 Molar [0.1 M] = 0.1 mole of the chemical in 1 Litre of solution

Na2CO3.10H2O = [23*2]+12+[16*3]+10([1*2]+16]) = 286 g

1 mole =286 g

0.1 mole =28.6 g

13.2 g in 1L

= 13.2 /1000 in 1 ml 0.0132 g

= 250 * 0.0132 in 250 ml = g

Experiment 14 Date ____________

To Determine the Percentage (W/V) of Sodium Hypochlorite in Bleach

Introduction

Many commercial bleaches are solutions of sodium hypochlorite [NaOCl] or calcium hypochlorite [Ca(OCl)2]The bleach is diluted to bring its concentration into a suitable range, and then it is reacted with excess potassium iodide in the presence of acid. This generates iodine solution of the same concentration as the hypochlorite.

ClO1-(aq) + 2I-

(aq) + 2 H+(aq) = Cl-

(aq) + I2(aq) + H2O(l)

The iodine solution is then titrated against a standard solution of 0.1 M sodium thiosulphate to find its concentration

Experiment 17 Date ____________

Rate of Production of Oxygen using MnO2 as a Catalyst

Introduction

Rate is the change in concentration per unit timeWe will measure the amount of product by the volume of gas e.g. 100 cm3 produced in 5 minutes = 20 cm3 per minute [overall rate]However the rate of this reaction varies as time goes on – it gets slower. We can see this easily.This experiment will show us how to measure the rate at any given time – this is called the instantaneous rate as opposed to the overall rate.

Apparatus

300ml conical flask, delivery tube, special bends, 800ml beaker, 100ml measuring cylinder, 20 volume hydrogen peroxide, half a teaspoon MnO2 (precipitated).

Procedure

Set up as shown.

o Place 20cm3 of fresh H2O2 in a conical flask and add about 50 cm3 water

o Place a small half spatula of MnO2 at the neck of the flask and fit the bung. Make sure that no peroxide is trapped between the stopper and the flask or gas will escape.

o When organised sit the flask on the bench and start timing - swirl for 5 sec.

o Note the volume of gas produced every 30 sec.

o As soon as the volume is noted swirl the flask for another 5 sec.

o Repeat until no more gas is produced.

o Draw a graph of volume against time. [opposite page]

o Calculate the instantaneous rate at two points marked A [1 minute] and B [6 minutes]:

a) Calculate average rate = volume = time

b) Draw a tangent at the point A [ do B when finished A]

b) Construct a horizontal and a vertical line to intersect the tangent.

c) Measure the slope of the tangent

Instantaneous rate = Rise (volume) = cm3 min-1

Recrystallisation of Benzoic Acid and Determination of its Melting Point Introduction

o Recrystallisation is the most common method of separating a solid material from solid impurities

o Called recrystallisation because we start with impure crystals, dissolve them and then form pure crystals again.

o Substances dissolve more easily in hot liquids than in coldo Benzoic acid is very soluble in hot water but only slightly soluble in coldo Solvent is the liquid in which the substance is dissolvedo Solute is the substance dissolvedo Solution is in the mixture of solute and solvento The benzoic acid is dissolved in the minimum amount of hot watero To get a solution that is almost saturated at the boiling point of the solvento This hot almost saturated solution is filtered to remove any insoluble impurities using a hot

buchner filter. The insoluble impurities are caught in the filter paper and are called the residue

o The benzoic acid and soluble impurities pass through the filter paper and are collected. This solution is called the filtrate

o When the hot solution cools the benzoic acid recrystallises in pure formo Any soluble impurities remain in solution due to their much lower concentration compared

to the benzoic acid

Apparatus

o Büchner Flasko Büchner Funnelo Filter Pumpo Benzoic acid [with charcoal as insoluble impurity and

sodium chloride as soluble impurity]o Hot plateo Aluminium block and thermometer with oil o [or Melting point apparatus]o Hot watero Ice bath

Procedure

Dissolve the impure benzoic acid in the minimum of hot water

o Place about 1.5 g of impure benzoic acid into a beaker

o Add about 10 ml of water

Extraction of Clove Oil from Cloves [or similar] by Steam Distillation

Introduction

Natural products are very useful but until recently we had to take them along with much of the plant or animal that they came from.Modern separation techniques allow us to extract the pure substanceMany have pharmaceutical applications. Examples are morphine, aspirin, quinine, nicotine, cocaine, caffeine etc.One of the processes is steam distillationIt is used because direct distillation would require a temperature so high that it would damage the clove oil

Apparatus and Materials

o 5 – 10 g of whole cloveso Anti-bumping granuleso PVC gloveso Steam Generatoro Water bath

Procedure

Seam Distillationo Set up the apparatus

as shown

o Place 5 – 10 grams of cloves in the pear shaped flask

Dichromate Chromate Orange Yellow

When we added NaOH the solution went yellow

When we added HCl the solution went orange

Explanation

Add Sodium hydroxide

The sodium hydroxide reacts with the H+ to form water [ H+ + OH- = H2O ]Therefore the H+ concentration dropsAccording to Le Chatelier the system will try to get it back to its original level How? By making more H+

It does this by reacting dichromate with water forming chromate and H+

The orange colour fades as the dichromate is used up and the yellow colour increases as the chromate forms

Add HCl

The H+ conc. increases [acid]According to Le Chatelier the system will try to get it back to its original level How? By using up the extra H+ How does it do this? It does it by reacting the H+ with chromate to form dichromateAs the chromate changes to dichromate the yellow colour fades and the orange colour increases

Cr2O72- + H2O = 2 CrO4

2- + H+

Experiment 29 Date ____________

Colorimetric Estimation of the Amount of Free Chlorine in Bleach .

Introduction

o The intensity of a colour in solution is directly proportional to its concentration.o A colorimeter passes light of a particular wavelength through the solution and measures the

amount of light absorbed by the solutiono If the absorbance is measured for a range of concentrations of the coloured substance being

studied then a calibration curve can be draw. This is a graph of absorbance against concentration.o If the absorbance of a solution of unknown concentration is found its concentration can be found

using the calibration curve. o Chlorine compounds are used to kill micro-organisms in swimming poolso The active ingredients are usually HOCl [chloric(I) acid] and its conjugate base ClO- the chlorate

(I) ion. These two compounds together make up what is called Free Chlorine.o These ions react with iodide ions in the same way as chlorine does by oxidising the to iodine

o Cl2(aq) + 2 KI (aq) = I2(aq) = 2 KCl(aq)

o The more concentrated the chlorine in water, the more intense the colour of the iodine solution formed

o A sample of diluted bleach is reacted with potassium iodide and is compared to a calibration curve produced by reacting solutions of known concentration with the same potassium iodide

Titre

Average Titre = 2.8 cm3

Calculations [from first principles]

2 Mn(OH)2 + O2 = 2 MnO(OH)2

MnO(OH)2(s) + 2 I-(aq) + 4 H+

(aq) = Mn2+(aq) + I2(aq) + 3 H2O(l)

I2(aq) + 2 S2O32-

(aq) = 2 I- (aq) + S4O62-

(aq)

Moles of thiosulphate = Volume * Molarity / 1000 = 2.8 * 0.025 /1000 = 0.00007

Moles of oxygen = ¼ moles of thiosulphate = ¼ * 0.00007 = 0.0000175

Mass of oxygen = 32 * moles = 32 * 0.0000175 = 0.00056

Mass of oxygen in 1 Litre = 1000 / volume¥ * mass of oxygen = 1000/50 * 0.00056 = 0.0112

Mass of oxygen in mg = 1000 * mass of oxygen in grams = 1000 * 0.0112 = 11.2

Page 94: Leaving Certificate  · Web viewMany commercial bleaches are solutions of sodium hypochlorite [NaOCl] or calcium hypochlorite [Ca(OCl) 2]The bleach is diluted to bring its concentration

Dissolved oxygen level = 11.2 mg litre [ppm]

[volume¥ = volume in conical flask]

Alternative method of calculation

Let a be oxygen Va = 50 Ma = ? na = 1

Let b be thiosulphate Vb = 2.8 Mb = 0.025 nb = 4

Ma = VbMbna / nbVa = 2.8 * 0.025 * 1 / 4 * 50 = 0.00035

Convert to g/l = molarity * molar mass = 0.00035 * 32 = 0.0112

Convert to mg/l [ppm] = g/l * 1000 = 11.2 ppm
