A student investigated the reactivity of metals with hydrochloric acid.This is the method used.
1. Measure 50 cm3 of hydrochloric acid into a polystyrene cup.
2. Measure the temperature of the hydrochloric acid.
3. Add one spatula of metal powder to the hydrochloric acid and stir.
4. Measure the highest temperature the mixture reaches.
5. Calculate the temperature increase for the reaction.
6. Repeat steps 1 to 5 three more times.
7. Repeat steps 1 to 6 with different metals.
The table below shows the student’s results.
Calculate the mean temperature increase X for magnesium in the table above.
Do not include the anomalous result in your calculation.
From above, What type of variable is the volume of hydrochloric acid in this investigation?
A student investigated the temperature change when zinc reacts with copper sulfate solution.
The student used a different concentration of copper sulfate solution for each experiment.The student used the apparatus shown below.
The student:
• measured 50 cm3 copper sulfate solution into a glass beaker
• measured the temperature of the copper sulfate solution
• added 2.3 g zinc
• measured the highest temperature
• repeated the experiment using copper sulfate solution with different concentrations.
The equation for the reaction is:
Zn(s) + CuSO4(aq) --> Cu(s) + ZnSO4(aq)
zinc + copper sulfate solution --> copper + zinc sulfate solution
The student’s results are shown in the table below.
Describe and explain the trends shown in the student’s results.
The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide gives out energy to the surroundings
What type of reaction is this?
Calculate the mean of the temperature change results. Do NOT use anomalies.
A student is given three metals, X, Y and Z to identify.
The metals are magnesium, iron and copper.
Plan an investigation to identify the three metals by comparing their reactions with dilute hydrochloric acid.
Your plan should give valid results.
