range of school alcohol thermometers
-10degC to 110degC
what is marked/graduated beaker for
- use primary to hold or store liquids instead of measuring volume of liquids
- but can only hold approximate volume of liquids like approximately 100cm3
what is pipette for
- measures very accurate fixed volume, e.g. 20cm3 and 25cm3
- cannot measure odd volumes like 21cm3 or 25.5cm3
what is burette for
measures very accurate variable volumes between 0,00cm3 to 50.00cm3
what is volumetric flask for
- measures accurate fixed volumes that are larger like 100cm3 or 250cm3
- commonly used for preparing a solution with known concentration
what is measuring cylinder for
measures accurate variable volumes
remarks for marked/graduated gas syringe
typical gas syringes in the laboratory measures volumes up to 100cm3
common gases to collect and dry
- ammonia
- carbon dioxide
- chlorine
- hydrogen
- hydrogen chloride
- oxygen
- sulfur dioxide
solubility of ammonia in water and density compared to air
extremely soluble
less dense
solubility of carbon dioxide in water and density compared to air
slightly soluble
denser
solubility of chlorine in water and density compared to air
soluble
denser
solubility of hydrogen in water and density compared to air
not soluble
less dense
solubility of hydrogen chloride in water and density compared to air
very soluble
denser
solubility of oxygen in water and density compared to air
very slightly soluble
slightly denser
solubility of sulfur dioxide in water and density compared to air
very soluble
denser
what is Mr of dry air
29.0
what is relative molecular mass
sum of all the relative atomic mass (Ar) for all the atoms in a given formula
methods to collect gas and suitability
- displacement of water (for insoluble or slightly soluble in water)
- displacement of air (for very soluble in water)
- downward displacement in air/upward delivery of gas (for less dense than air)
- upward displacement of air/downward delivery of gas (denser than air)
- using a graduated gas syringe
