LIST SAFE STEPS FOR MIXING THIS SOLUTION.

STATION #1

1. USE PIPETTE TO DRAW WATER, ADD TO GRADUATED CYLINDER TO MEASURE NEEDED AMOUNT

2. POUR INTO MIXING BEAKER

3. THEN, DRAW HCL WITH A CLEAN PIPETTE, TRANSFER TO GRADUATED CYLINDER TO MEASURE.

4. ADD TO BEAKER OF WATER – DO AS YOU OUGHTA’, ADD ACID TO WATA’

STATION #2

MATERIALS: ERLENMEYER FLASK, UNKNOWN GREEN SOLUTION

DESCRIBE PROPER & SAFE PROCEDURES FOR OBSERVING THE SOLUTION.

THEN, DESCRIBE THE BEST WAY TO RECORD THE DATA. LAST, DESCRIBE HOW YOU MIGHT ANALYZE THE DATA?

STATION #2

STATION #3MATERIALS: 50ML GRADUATED CYLINDER, 250ML BEAKER, PIPETTE, TEST TUBE

GIVEN THE MATERIALS AT YOUR TABLE, DESCRIBE WHICH OF THE EQUIPMENT YOU WOULD USE AND THE SAFE PROCEDURE FOR ADDING 50ML TO THE TEST TUBE?

STATION #3

STATION #4MATERIALS: 50 ML GRADUATED CYLINDER, 400ML BEAKER, TEST TUBE, TEST TUBE TONGS, THERMOMETER, HOT PLATE, HOT HANDS.

WHEN HEATING GLASSWARE IT GETS HOT!

DESCRIBE SAFE STEPS FOR HEATING 30ML SOLUTION TO 60O CELSIUS. INCLUDE THE PROPER HANDLING OF GLASSWARE BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER HEATING

STATION #4

STATION #5

MATERIALS: SALT, SCOOPULA, 400 ML BEAKER, GLASS STIRRING ROD

YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO DISSOLVE SALT IN 200ML OF WATER. DESCRIBE HOW YOU WOULD SAFELY DO IT GIVEN THE EQUIPMENT AT YOUR TABLE

STATION #5

1.MEASURE AMOUNT OF WATER YOU NEED IN BEAKER

2.USE SCOOPULA TO SCOOP SALT/SOLID

3.STIR WITH GLASS STIRRING ROD (NEVER A THERMOMETER)

STATION #6

MATERIALS: UNKNOWN SOLID, SCOOPULA, WEIGH BOAT, BALANCE

YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO TEST AN UNKNOWN SOLID AND NEED A 75G SAMPLE. DESCRIBE HOW YOU WOULD SAFELY HANDLE AND MEASURE IT GIVEN THE EQUIPMENT AT YOUR TABLE.

STATION #6

1.PLACE WEIGH BOAT ON BALANCE PLATE AND ZERO OUT/MASS IT

2.DO A LITTLE MATH: MASS OF BOAT + MASS OF SAMPLE WANTED = TOTAL MASS

3.MOVE WEIGHTS TO TOTAL MASS AMOUNT.

4.SCOOP SOLID WITH SCOOPULA. EMPTY INTO WEIGH BOAT UNTIL POINTER ZEROES OUT.

HOW TO USE A BALANCE

TOTD1.THERE ARE CERTAIN THINGS YOU CAN DO TO BE

SUCCESSFUL IN LAB, NAMELY PREPARE ACCORDINGLY. LIST SOME THINGS YOU SHOULD DO TO PREPARE FOR LAB.

2. DESCRIBE HOW YOU SHOULD DRESS FOR LAB.
