Finding the formula of Epsom salts
REQUIREMENTS
Each student will need:
Eye protection, Rack and one clean, dry, hard-glass test tube, Solid hydrated magnesiumsulphate (Epsom salts) (approx. 2-3 g) Spatula, Bunsen burner, Test tube holder, Access to
balanceTime required 45 minutesIntroduction
Epsom salts are hydrated magnesium sulphate. Their formula is sometimes written as
MgSO4.xH2O. In this experiment, you will be trying to find the value ofx (i.e. the number of
moles of water associated with one mole of MgSO4 in Epsom salts).
Principle
When Epsom salts are heated, their water of crystallisation is driven off, leaving anhydrous
magnesium sulphate, MgSO4.
MgSO4.xH2O(s)MgSO4(s) + xH2O(g)By weighing the hydrated and anhydrous magnesium sulphate before and after heating, it ispossible to find the mass of MgSO4 and the mass of H2O in a sample of Epsom salts. From
these masses, you can calculate the number of moles of water associated with one mole ofMgSO4. You can then write the precise formula for Epsom salts.ProcedureWeigh a clean, dry test tube.
Put about 1 cm depth of Epsom salts in the test tube and reweigh.
Record these weighings and those which follow in a clear table.
Now, heat the test tube gently for a minute and then strongly for 5 minutes. Allow the tube to
cool and then reweigh it.

Structure, bonding and propertiesREQUIREMENTS
Each student. or pair of students, will need:
Eye protection Polythene rod and fur for charging Burette 3 beakers (100 ml) Rack with 6 test tubes Pair of carbon
electrodes100mA ammeter 6 V battery or power pack leads and crocodile dips Iodine (harmful) Calcium chloride
(solid) (irritant) Powdered graphite isopropyl alcohol(highly flammable) benzene (toxic) Distilled water Silver
nitrate solution (about 0.1 mol dm-3)
Introduction
Most of the physical and chemical properties of a substance can be related to the type of bonding present in it. In
this practical you will study properties such as volatility and conductivity and try to explain these properties in
terms of the bonding in the substance involved .
Substances that are ionically bonded contain positive and negative ions. Substances that are covalently bonded
contain molecules. If these molecules contain different elements, they may be polar due to the unequal sharing of
electrons between the different atoms. The degree of polarity in a molecule, determined by the shape of the
molecule and the relative e1ectronegativities of the atoms in it, has a significant effect on the properties of the
substance.
experiment 2:
The effect of a charged rod on thin streams of liquid
Charge a polythene rod by rubbing it on a piece of fur. Hold the rod about 1 cm from a thin stream of water
running from a burette. Note what happens.1 What sort of particles does water contain?
2 Are these particles polar?
3 Explain the effect of the charged rod on the stream of water.
4 What do you think would happen with a rod of opposite charge?
Explain your answer.
Repeat the experiment using benzene, and then isopropyl alcohol, instead of water.
5 Relate the behaviour of streams of these liquids towards a charged rod to the nature of the particles they contain.
6 Look up the boiling points and relative molecular masses of water, isopropyl alcohol and benzene. Try to explain
the relative magnitudes of their boiling points in terms of polarity.Experiment 3:
Miscibility of liquids
Test the miscibility of a water and isopropyl alcohol, b water and benzene, c benzene and isopropyl alcohol.

and shake. Judge the relative solubility of calcium chloride in the three solvents from the amount of silver chloride
precipitated.
Answer questions 8 to 10 with reference to calcium chloride instead of iodine.
Experiment 7:
The volatility of iodine, graphite and calcium chloride
CARE!
Iodine vaporis corrosive and toxic. Use only a very small crystal of iodine and
work in a fume cupboard.
Heat a crystal of each of the solids in turn in a hard-glass test tube and judge their relative volatilities.
12 Try to explain the relative volatility of these three solids in terms of the particles they contain and the forces
between them.
Experiment 8:Conductivity
Collect each of the solutions produced in experiments 3, 4 and 5. Test the conductivity of each solution by the
following procedure.
Connect a pair of carbon electrodes in series with a 6 V battery and a100 mA ammeter. Dip the electrodes in the
solution under test and note the meter reading in each case. Test the same depth of solution each time. (If the
solid showed no sign of dissolving, do not bother to perform the test in that particular case.) You should also test
the conductivity of each of the pure solvents. Note: keep the electrodes clean and make sure they are not
contaminated with liquid from a previous rest.
13 Try to explain the relative conductivities of the different solutions.

Experiment # 10: Analyzing iron tablets
Apparatus/materials: Iron tablets (5) sold by chemists as ferrous sulphate tablets, 1.0 mol dm-3
sulphuric acid (irritant)(200 cm3), 0.01 mol dm-3 potassium manganate(VII), (75 cm3), conical flasks (250 cm3), Standard flask (250 cm3), Buretteand stand, Pipette (25 cm3) and safety filler, Filter funnel, Filter paper, Wash bottle and distilled water .
Introduction: Iron is essential to the human body. Its principal role is as a constituent of haemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying agent inthe blood. Iron is also present in a number of enzymes and co-enzymes involved in redox processes in the body.
Some groups in the population need substantial amounts of iron in their diet in order to produce extra haemoglobin. Such people
include growing children, pregnant and menstruating women, and people who have for various reasons lost considerable amounts of
blood. A satisfactory intake of iron can normally be ensured by eating a suitable diet, because certain foods - liver, kidney, egg yolk
and spinach for example - are rich in iron. Nevertheless, it is sometimes necessary to supplement the iron taken in the natural diet
with 'iron tablets'.
Iron tablets bought at the chemist usually contain iron(II) sulphate (ferrous sulphate) a cheap, soluble form of iron. In this practical
you will attempt to find the actual percentage of iron(II) sulphate in the tablets and then compare this result with the quantity statedon the bottle.
Assuming all the iron in the tablets is in the form of Fe2+
, it is possible to estimate the iron content by titration against potassium
manganate(VII), KMnO4.
The equation for the reaction of Fe2+
with 4 in acid solution is:
5Fe2+
(aq) + 4 (aq) + 8H
+(aq) 5Fe
3+(aq) + Mn
2+(aq) + 4H20(1)
1. How many moles of Fe react with 1 mole of4 P- ?ProcedureMaking a solution of the tablets
Weigh accurately 5 of the iron tablets, then dissolve them in about 100 cm3
of 1.0 mol dm-3
sulphuric acid in a conical flask. This
will probably require heating, but do not heat more than necessary to dissolve the tablets.
2. Why should the tablets not be heated more than necessary?3. Why are the tablets dissolved in sulphuric acid instead of water?
The outer coating of the tablets will probably not dissolve, so the solution will need filtering.
4. What do you think the outer coating might be?Filter the mixture into a beaker, making sure you do not lose any of the solution, then wash out the conical flask with

A practical study of the third periodREQUIREMENTS
Eye protection, Samples of elements from period 3. Because of the hazardous nature of sodium (highly flammable),phosphorus (toxic) and chlorine (toxic), it is best for the teacher to demonstrate these elements. It is important to avoidconfusion between phosphorus (stored under water) and sodium (stored under oil).Ideally, phosphorus and sodium should notbe in the laboratory at the same time. Simple apparatus to test electrical conductivity 1 rack + 4 test tubes Full-range indicator
paper Samples of the following oxides: Na2O (or NaOH) (corrosive), MgO, AI2O3, SiO2, P2O5 (corrosive) Access to SO2cylinder, Dilute hydrochloric acid (irritant) Dilute sodium hydroxide solution (corrosive) Samples of the following chlorides:NaCI, MgCI2, AICI3, PCI3, SCI2 (or S2CI2) AICI3, PCI3, SCI2 and S2CI2 are all corrosive Bunsen burner
IntroductionThe periodic table provides a very important unifying pattern to the study of chemistry. The intention of this practical is tostudy some of the trends in properties across the third period of the periodic table.
A Patterns in the properties of elements
The properties of the elements show a repeating pattern with increasing atomic number. The most obvious pattern is the
steady change from metals on the left to non-metals on the right of each period.
Procedure
Examine samples of the elements sodium to argon in period 3. Test the electrical conductivity of those elements for which the
results are not given in table 1.
1. Copy and complete table 1. You will have to consult a data book, or Section 4.7 in Chemistry in Context, Fifth Edition,
for boiling point values.

Test the solubility of each oxide in water. Add a very small measure ofeach solid to about 3 cm3 of distilled water and shake thoroughly. (In the case
of sulphur dioxide, bubble the gas through 3 cm3
of water in a fume cupboard
for a few seconds.)
If Na2O is not available, use sodium hydroxide (NaOH) (CARE Corrosive. Wearprotective gloves.) Some oxides will dissolve easily. Others will not dissolve at all.Test the pH of the solution obtained from each oxide using full-range indicator paper.Record your results in table 2.
5. Which of the oxides of period 3 elements:a) form acidic solutions with water,b) form alkaline solutions with water
c) are insoluble in water?6. Write equations for the reactions of the soluble oxides with water.
If an oxide is insoluble in water, its reactions with acids and alkalis canbe used to decide its acid-base character. If an oxide dissolves in acid, it 'musthave reacted with it. The oxide can therefore be classified as basic. If theoxide dissolves in alkali, it can be described as acidic. If the insoluble oxidedissolves in both acids and alkalis, it is both basic and acidic. The adjective
'amphoteric' (from a Greek word meaning 'both') is used to describe theseoxides.
Test the solubility of the insoluble oxides in dilute hydrochloric acid and then in
dilute sodium hydroxide solution. Remember to use small measures of solid.
7.Write equations for any reactions of the insoluble oxides:a) with hydrochloric acid,b) with sodium hydroxide solution.
8.Complete the last two lines in table 2.9. Describe the following patterns in the properties of the oxides
