Purpose: In this lab we will observe the products of of potassium
perchlorate (KClO4). We will then predict from our results the correct chemical
reaction equation.
Procedure: 1. Weigh out about 4.0g of KClO4 in a test tube. Record the
accurate weight below. Product Weight Before Weight After Mass of Test tube +
KClO4 41.5g 39.8g Mass of Test tube 37.5g 37.5 Mass of KClO4
4.0g 2.3g 2. Set up the apparatus shown below.
3. Gently heat the test tube containing the potassium perchlorate. Gas should
begin to collect in the collection bottle. Record all observation. 4. Once the
reaction is complete, no more gas give off, allow the test tube to cool. While
the test tube is cooling test the gas in the collection bottle with glowing
splint. Caution: Do not ...

PROJECTILE MOTION * The motion of the body thrown horizontally or an angle other than 90[0] with the horizontal component * Trajectory is the path that a projectile follows * Parabola is the trajectory of a projectile * Two components of projectile motion: Vertical component- air resistance is neglected; a projectile moves horizontally at const...
Homework #3b - II: Show your work under each question 1) You are riding your bike on a track that forms a vertical circular loop. If the diameter of the loop is 10.0 m, what is the minimum speed required for you to make it around the loop? 2) You are swinging a bucket of water in a vertical circle. Assuming that the radius of the rotation of...
When one starts a car or burns wood, the last thought on their mind is the consequences to these actions. Unfortunately, the daily dangers to earth are not widely know. Due to the constant change of society, this planet must cope with various problems. One of the most important ecological structures is the ozone layer. The same shield that protects...
. What were the ? The Romantic Age and Victorian Period had many similarities, but they had far more differences. They first differed in rule: the Romantic Age didn't have a king or queen, but the Victorian Period did. They were similar and different in writing styles, and beliefs. The Industrial Revolution also had an effect on both time periods....
Waterpower, power derived from the fall of water from a higher to a lower level, and extracted by means of waterwheels or hydraulic turbines (see Turbine). Waterpower is a natural resource, available wherever a sufficient volume of steady water flow exists. The development of waterpower today requires extensive construction, including storage lakes...
The Eye is the organ of that you gives your sight. Eyes enable people to perform tasks and to learn about the world that around them. Sight, or vision, is a rapidly occurring process that involves interaction between the eye the nervous system and the brain. When someone looks at an object, what he/she is really seeing is the light that the object...
The humpback whale is a baleen whale and a rorqual whale that sings amazing songs. It performs complex and cooperative feeding techniques. The humpback has a bulky head with bumpy protuberances (tubercles), each with a bristle. Humpbacks are acrobats of the ocean, breaching and slapping the water. They live in pods and have 2 blowholes. The name hu...
Dreams are a form of cognitive activity that occur during sleep. Like vivid memories and daytime fantasies, dreams involve visual images in the absence of external visual stimulation. Some dreams are so realistic and well organized that we feel as though they must be real-- that we simply cannot be dreaming this time. Dreaming has always been the...
Period 3 Grade 8 is a mineral. it is not a plant or a animal. is a metallic metal. It can never be broken down into differnet substances by normal chemical means. was one of the first metals known to humans. People liked it because in it's native condition, it could easily be beaten into weapons or tools. has been one of the most useful metals...
America Endangered species are plant and animal species that are in danger of extinction, the dying off of all individuals of a species. Over 19,000 plant species and 5000 animal species around the globe are classified as endangered, and many thousands more become extinct each year before biologists can identify them (Microsoft 1). The primary ca...
Creatine, Beneficial or Waste of $$$$$? Having finally resolved to work out at the gym, you sweat and toil for weeks on end only to look in the mirror and see little to show for it. It's the paradox of the New Year's resolution exerciser. Seeing physical results can help exercisers stay true to their fitness programs, yet for many it takes month...
A comet is generally considered to consist of a small, sharp nucleus embedded in a nebulous disk called the coma. American astronomer Fred L. Whipple proposed in 1949 that the nucleus, containing practically all the mass of the comet, is a 'dirty snowball' conglomerate of ices and dust. Major proofs of the snowball theory rest on various data. For...
