Experiment (2): The Equation For A Reaction

1- Aim: a. To determine the molar ratio between sodium hydrogen

carbonate and hydrochloric acid when they react.
b. To write an equation for the reaction.

2- Introduction: A chemical change is called a chemical

reaction. Chemical reactions are represented by chemical equation. A
chemical equation uses to symbols to show what happens during a
chemical reaction and to identify reactants and products.

3- Apparatus and Chemical:

Delivery tub, Test tube, Analytic balance, Dish,

Apparatus
Beakers, Graduated cylinder.
Chemical HCl, AgNO3, NaHCO3, Lime water.

4- Results, Calculation & Discussion:

A- Preliminary Test:

- Observations:

1- What happened to the lime water? Why? Write chemical

equation.
When we mix NaHCO 3 with HCL , we produce CO2 and it makes the lime
water cloudy (not clear).
NaHCO3 (s) + HCl (l) NaCl (s) + CO2 (g) + H2O (l)

2- What happened to the lit splint? Why?

Putt off, Because of CO 2.

 B- Equation of a Reaction:

Mass ev.dish 33.308 g

Mass ev.dish & 0.6 NaHCO3 33.916 g
Mass NaHCO3 33.91633.308=0.608 g
M.m = (1.008+48+12.01+22.99)=84 g\mol ..
Moles NaHCO3
No.Mol= Mass\M.m=0.608\84=7.2*10^-3 mol
ed.dish & NaCl 33.724 g
Mass NaCl 33.724-33.308=0.416 g
M.m = (35.45+22.99)=58.44 g\mol ..
Moles NaCl
No.Mol= Mass\M.m= 0.416\58.44=7.12*10^-3 mol

The ratio between the moles of NaHCO3 and the moles of

NaCl:
NaHCO3 : NaCl
7.2*10^-3\7.12*10^-3 : 7.12*10^-3\7.12*10^-3
1 : 1

Balance chemical equation:

NaHCO3 (s) + HCl (l) NaCl (s) + CO2 (g) + H2O (l)

5- Conclusion: We learned from the experiment deal with the

chemical equation, and we learned that CO 2 make the lime water cloudy
ant put off the splint. And we can test Cl- by AgNO3.

6- Questions:

1- Why did the lime water change in color?

Becouse of CO2.

2- What happened to the Splint?

The Splint put off, Because CO 2 does not support the combustion.

3- Write the equation for the reaction between silver nitrate

and Cl-.
NaCl (s) + AgNO3 (l) AgCl (s) + NaNO3 (aq)
