Though this cathode ray tube experiment shows what happens to electrons when a magnetic field is applied, we can imagine how a positively charged ion would also be affected by a magnetic field.

Empirical Formula Practice, Answers

In this lab, students design a procedure to determine the number of water molecules in the formula for Copper II Sulfate. This lesson is also an introduction to key spreadsheet skills:

• Creating a formula using the "=" 

• Using cell numbers to repeat a formula "=C2-A2"

• Telling the computer to repeatedly use only one cell "=F2/$F$16"

• Taking the simple average of data "=AVERAGE(G2:G8)"

• Finding the standard deviation of results "=STDEV(G2:G8)"

Lab Handout: Gravimetric Analysis of a Metal Carbonate

(Modified from the lab written by Sally Ann Vonderbrink in the book Laboratory Experiments for Advanced Placement Chemistry)

This is our first inquiry lab. We will be following the full length lab report desctription in the "Sections of an Inquiry Lab Report" handout that's taped in the notebooks. This report must include:

Title, Purpose, Theory Section (two paragraphs describing the gravimetric analysis method and filtering and decanting), Pre-lab Questions, Safety, Materials, Procedure (paraphrased and hopefully with helpful diagrams), Data & Calculations, Claim, and Discussion.

An example report is available in Smith's example notebook in the classroom.
