The correct procedure for transferring liquid with a volumetric pipet. 1. First clean and rinse your pipet with tap water and do a second rinse with deionized water. 2. Compress the rubber bulb and place it carefully over the upper end of the pipet. The bulb only needs to cover the end of the pipet to create an airtight seal, there is no need to push the pipet farther into the bulb. You may want to lubricate the hole of the rubber bulb with a drop of deionized water. 3. Place the tip of the pipet in the liquid and draw the liquid into the pipet and above the calibration line. Keep the pipet tip submerged to avoid air bubble entry. Be careful not to draw the liquid into the bulb. Dispose of this first amount of liquid into a waste beaker. 4. Once again, draw in the liquid to be measured above the calibration line in the pipet. Remove the bulb while simultaneously covering the tip of the pipet with your finger. Now allow the liquid level to drop to the required level by slowly allowing air to enter the pipet by a controlled lifting of the finger that is covering the end of the pipet. 5. When the liquid level is at the correct place, move the pipet tip to the glassware where you want the liquid delivered and release your finger. Allow the pipet to drain into the container and touch off any last drop on the pipet side of the glassware. 6. There may be some liquid remaining in the pipet tip. Do no blow this remaining liquid from the pipet. The pipet was calibrated to deliver the correct volume with this liquid remaining. There is a tiny bit of liquid left inside the end of the pipet after the pipet has drained: You should blow through the pipet to drain this last drop so that your transfer will be accurate. You should touch any hanging drop of solution to the side of your beaker, but leave the small amount within the pipet. You should use a graduated cylinder instead, they're more precise than a volumetric pipet.

You should touch any hanging drop of solution to the side of your beaker, but leave the small amount within the pipet.

The correct procedure for transferring liquid with a volumetric pipet. First, rinse with tap water and do a second rinse with deionized water. If using an atomizer bulb: Compress the rubber bulb and place it carefully over the upper end of the pipet. The bulb only needs to cover the end of the pipet to create an airtight seal, there is no need to push the pipet farther into the bulb. You may want to lubricate the hole of the rubber bulb with a drop of deionized water. If using a rolling pipet top: Press the proper sized pipet top tightly onto the end of the pipet in order to create an airtight seal. Place the tip of the pipet in the liquid and draw the liquid into the pipet and above the calibration line. Keep the pipet tip submerged to avoid air bubble entry. Be careful not to draw the liquid into the bulb. Dispose of this first amount of liquid into a waste beaker. Once again, draw in the liquid to be measured above the calibration line in the pipet. If using an atomizer bulb: remove the bulb while simultaneously covering the tip of the pipet with your finger. Now allow the liquid level to drop to the required level by slowly allowing air to enter the pipet by a controlled lifting of the finger that is covering the end of the pipet. If using a rolling pipet top, there is no need to remove the top. Push the side button to allow your pipet to drain. When the liquid level is at the correct place, move the pipet tip to the glassware where you want the liquid delivered and release your finger. Allow the pipet to drain into the container and touch off any last drop on the pipet side of the glassware. There may be some liquid remaining in the pipet tip. Do no blow this remaining liquid from the pipet. The pipet was calibrated to deliver the correct volume with this liquid remaining. NEVER allow the liquid to enter the pipet top (atomizer bulb or rolling). What is the major difference between the atomizer bulb and a rolling pipet top:

Atomizer bulbs should be loosely attached to the pipet to facilitate their removal when draining the pipet, where rolling pipet tops should be more tightly attached to the pipet and don't have to be removed to drain the pipet.

Directly proportional, indirectly proportional Directly proportional, directly proportional Indirectly proportional, indirectly proportional Indirectly proportional, directly proportional None of the above

None of the above

Explain the term parallax in the context of reading a meniscus and how you would avoid any error that might be introduced by parallax?

Parallax error is the apparent displacement of an object as seen from two different viewpoints that are not in line with the object. The meniscus must consistently be read at eye level.

A proper Beer's Law plot is

Shows a linear relationship when plotting Absorbance vs. Concentration

Cuvets have two types of surfaces: one intended to transmit light and one not intended to transmit light from the LED. T/F

You need 10.0 mL of a certain chemical. What's the best approach?

Take a 50 mL or 150 mL beaker to the hood and carefully pour slightly more than 10 mL of solution from the stock bottle, then take the solution back to your desk and measure precisely 10 mL in your 10 mL graduated cylinder.

What is the definition of the molar enthalpy of neutralization?

The heat released in the neutralization of one mole of acid or base at constant pressure.

A scientist does two sets of experiments with three trials each to determine the density of an unknown solution. The three trials for the first experiment have a standard deviation of 0.0980 g/mL. The three trials for the second experiment have a standard deviation of 0.0137 g/mL. What can we infer?

The measurements from the second experiment were more precise.

Suppose that you run a chemical reaction in a constant-pressure calorimeter and you observe the temperature of the contents of the calorimeter decrease. What is the most likely reason? endo/exo

The reaction is endothermic.

How will we know when we have reached the end-point in our titration?

The solution will change color

What would be the consequences of the following scenario and what effect would it have on your experimental results? The beakers containing the solvents were not covered while running the experiment.

The solvent could evaporate. If the solvent evaporated before the experiment was complete, we could not accurately determine Rf values.

The Dyes Blue 1 and Green 3 have very similar Rf's in most solvents. Why do you think this is?

The structures of the two dyes are nearly identical, except for the substituent on one aromatic ring.

What is the role of sodium hydroxide in this experiment 12?

To determine the amount of excess hydrochloric acid remaining after the reaction with magnesium

In this experiment, you will employ the ammonia, NH3, and the thiocyanate ion, SCN-, for much the same purpose. The common purpose is: To form a complex. As an acid As an acid-base indicator as a metal cation.

To form a complex.

Why do we need to filter samples of juice and food products before titration in this experiment?

To remove pulp and other solids from the solution

What would be the consequences of the following scenario and what effect would it have on your experimental results? A student used a dropper rather than a toothpick to put a small drop of each dye on the chromatography paper.

Too much dye would be spotted, causing large spots that would spread. The chromatogram would be impossible to analyze properly.

Solutions will show deviations from Beer's Law when they: (Select all that apply) Are too complex Transmit more than 90% of incident light Transmit less than 10% of incident light Absorb more than 10% of incident light Absorb less than 90% of incident light

Transmit more than 90% of incident light Transmit less than 10% of incident light

How do we compensate for absorbance of light by the cuvet walls, the solvent, and the solutes other than the complex ion.

We calibrate with cuvet, solvent, and other solutes present

What do we mean by "waste minimization?"

We try to use as little reagents as possible during the experiment. We take only the amounts of reagents necessary to complete the experiment. We dispose of waste in proper containers. We do not return excess waste to the reagent bottles.

What would be the consequences of the following scenario and what effect would it have on your experimental results? The chromatogram was removed from the solvent after the solvent front had reached the top of the chromatogram paper

We would be unable to determine how far the solvent front traveled, and therefore could not determine the Rf for the components.

Which is the final step when cleaning a piece of volumetric glassware prior to making a volumetric measurement? Rinse with deionized water. Clean using a brush and approved laboratory glassware cleaner. Rinse with tap water. Wet the surfaces of the glassware with the liquid being measured.

Wet the surfaces of the glassware with the liquid being measured.

When do you remove a chromatogram from its solvent?

When the solvent front is 2 cm from the top of the chromatogram.

Is this the correct procedure for cleaning glassware prior to making a measurement: First, Clean with approved laboratory glassware cleaner and a brush. Second, Rinse with tap water. Third, Rinse with deionized water from your wash bottle. Dispose of these rinses in your waste beaker.

Yes

Is this the correct procedure for cleaning volumetric glassware prior to making a measurement: First, Rinse with tap water. Second, Rinse with deionized water from your wash bottle. Finally, if the glassware is volumetric, rinse once (or preferably twice) with the solution you are going to be measuring. Dispose of these rinses in your waste beaker.

Yes

Would you expect a large piece of titanium oxide to have the same density as a small piece? yes/no intensive/extensive
