METAL ION DISPLACEMENT 2
Metal Ion Displacement
Introduction
For this experiment, a series of measures for unknown metals and unknown
inorganic compounds are used with classification. There are indicators in each
experiment indicating chemical processes as follows: changes in colors,
precipitation, gas development, and increases in temperature. Each of these
markers is typically the product of metal ion reactions [ CITATION mat \l 1033 ]. The
materials used in this experiment comprise the ions barium, lead, magnesium,
cobalt, and iron. Sodium, copper (II) sulfate, lead (ii) nitrate, zinc nitrate, and barium
chloride are compounds used in the second half of the experiment.
Materials: Copper (II) sulfate, Zinc nitrate, Barium chloride, Sodium hydroxide
Ammonium, Ammonium thiocyanate, 150 mL beaker, Unknown metal ion solution
24-A-2, Unknown #34-B, Water, 8 test tubes, Test tube rack, and Pipettes.
Experimental
Five test tubes with four drops of each 0.1 mol solution are formed in Part A of
the experiment: barium Nitrate, magnesium Nitrate, lead II Nitrate, and iron III
Nitrate. The colors were recorded for each solution. Two separate experiments have
been conducted with two droplets of ammonium and ammonium sulfate, the 0.5 mol
research reagents. After testing, the tests are recorded and removed. The five
samples are then examined using a 4 mol sodium hydroxide distilled solution. The
solution is diluted with water to 0.5 mol and is contained in two drops. After reporting,
the findings are decided[ CITATION Tar18 \l 1033 ]. For more than 15 drops, the sodium
hydroxide cycle is replicated. The findings will be reported and erased. By setting up
six test tubes, the last stage of section A of the mysterious 24-A-2 is to be sought.
The reagents from the last six experiments are in the test tubes; each tube has four
droplets. The findings will then be registered, and the waste will be
eliminated[ CITATION Min19 \l 1033 ].
The inorganic compound 34 was calculated in part B of the experiment.
Initially, a 10-reaction method was formed with four 0.5-mol droplets: sodium
hydroxide, copper II sulfate, lead nitrate II, zinc nitrate, and chloride of the barium.
The reactions and waste are stored. The last stage involves the construction of five
METAL ION DISPLACEMENT 3
test tubes of four drops each. Every test tube has then been filled with four drops of
the unknown 34. The results have been recorded and the waste disposed of. The
unknown will be one of the five solutions found [ CITATION Tar18 \l 1033 ].
Results
The colors of the fluids were white, clear, red, pink, and orange in the lab book
report.
Discussion
Part B saw a series of combinations that amounted to 10 possible combinations. Out
of those ten reactions, only 6 displayed the markers of reaction from the
presentation. Just copper II sulfate and lead II sulfate reacted to the unknown 34.
The sodium hydroxide method, which interacts with the same reactions as barium
chloride, is identical. The unknown did not respond clearly with barium chloride, so it
is not a final response. In part A of the previous six experiments, the unknown metal
solution 24-A-2 was described. Only the reagents ammonium, sodium hydroxide,
excess hydroxide, and excess aquatic ammonium were reacted by the unknown.
These results show that the effects of white precipitation are similar to lead II nitrate.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Part B solution combined with two compounds which may be a
replacement for sodium hydroxide. Component A was determined to be lead II
nitrate with the unexplained solution.
