Answers for Laboratory Questions:

Activity 1: Synthesis Reaction:

Reaction of steel wool with oxygen.

A large amount of heat is supplied by burning pure oxygen and then steel wool burns and changes to iron oxide. Following is the balanced equation of the reaction.

4 Fe (s) + 3 O2 (g) ==> 2 Fe2O3 (s)

Activity 2: Decomposition Reaction:

Oxygen is produced in the decomposition reaction of H2O2. Below is the balanced equation of the decomposition of H2O2:

2H2O2 (l) =======> 2H2O (l) + O2 (g)

Activity 3: Single-Replacement Reaction:

Balanced equation for the reaction of magnesium with hydrochloric acid

Mg (s) + 2 HCl (aq) --> MgCl2 (aq) + H2 (g)

As can be seen from the above equation hydrogen is produced upon reaction of magnesium      

metal with hydrochloric acid.

Holding splint at 45o is important as it allows better supply of oxygen for the burning splint.

The reaction initiated by the burning splint can be classified as combustion reaction.

Activity 4: Double-Replacement Reaction

  Na2CO3 (aq) + 2 CH3COOH (l) ------> 2 CH3COO-Na+ (aq) + H2CO3 (g)

H2CO3 (g) ---------> H2O (l) + CO2 (g)

The final gas generated upon reaction of sodium carbonate with vinegar (acetic acid) is carbon

dioxide and extinguishes the burning wooden splint.

Activity 5: Combustion Reaction

Example for a combustion reaction:

C3H8 (g) + 5 O2 (g) --------> 3 CO2 (g)+ 4 H2O (g) + Heat

A combustion reaction uses oxygen to burn the fuel and emits carbon dioxide gas and water

vapour. This is the reason for appearance of water on the inside of the glass test tube.

Activity 6: Precipitation Reaction

The following reaction is an example for precipitation reaction from the above reactions.

2 KI (aq) + Pb(NO3)2 (aq) --------> 2 KNO3 (aq) + PbI2 (precipitate)
