AP Chemistry – Lab 01 – PPT Reactions
Today (September 1st) is the day for our first lab and I am eager to get started on the road to experimentation in this course. Here are some notes for the lab
Lab Safety
- proper lab protection (shows, aprons, glasses)
- knowledge of the hazards for each item used
- disposal of waste and cleanup procedures
Knowledge of Lab Procedure
- reading and notes beforehand
- lab quiz is always possible
- where are you recording your lab information and data?
- What is distilled water? Why is this important for the lab?
This Lab’s Concepts
- writing formulas from names
- writing names from formulas
- predicting double displacement reactions
- predicting which substance will precipitate
Questions to Answer on Tumblr Blog
- What are the names and formulas for each of the solutions used in this experiment?
- When a precipitate forms by the addition of two salt solutions, how can you predict the identity of the solid product?
- For each square that forms a precipitate, determine the formula and name of the precipitate that is formed.
- Are there any ions that never form precipitates in this experiment? Why?
- Note: be sure and post the data from your lab as well
