CHM 113: Chemistry Laboratory I

Explore the chemical combination of nitrogen and fluorine to produce nitrogen trifluoride. Learn how to determine the limiting reactant and calculate the theoretical yield using stoichiometry principles.

Explore the concept of bond energy with the H-Cl bond as a prime example. Delve into the energy dynamics of bond breaking (endothermic positive ?H) versus bond formation (exothermic negative ?H). Understand how the magnitude remains consistent but signs differ based on energy absorption or release.

Explore the chemical structures of four distinct ethers: ethyl propyl ether dibutyl ether methyl hexyl ether and dipentyl ether. Understand the role of ether groups which involve an oxygen atom connected to two alkyl or aryl groups.

Explore how to calculate the theoretical yield of TiCl? in moles based on different initial quantities of reactants in the chemical equation Ti + 2 Cl? ? TiCl?.

Discover the process of determining a compound's molecular formula from its empirical formula and molar mass. Understand the calculations and reasoning behind deriving C?H? from the empirical formula CH? with a molar mass of 56.11 g/mol. Gain insight into fundamental chemistry concepts and computations.

Explore the power of chemical names and symbols in deciphering copper compound formation at each step of the copper cycle, with an illustrative example.
