(OPTIONAL) Take Home Lab: Making Chocolate Chip Cookies Name

The following recipe for chocolate chip cookies recently appeared in Chemical & Engineering News (C&EN,
Jun 19, 1995, p. 100). It was attributed to Jeannene Ackerman of Witco Corp.

Ingredients:

1 587.5 cm3 gluten

2 4.9 cm3 NaHCO3

3 4.9 cm3 refined halite

4 176.25 cm3 partially hydrogenated tallow triglyceride

5 177.45 cm3 crystalline C12H22O11

6 177.45 cm3 unrefined C12H22O11

7 4.9 cm3 methyl ether of protocatechuic aldehyde

8 Two calcium carbonate-encapsulated avian albumen-coated protein

9 473.2 cm3 theobroma cacao

10 236.6 cm3 de-encapsulated legume meats (sieve size #10)

To a 2-L jacketed round reactor vessel (reactor #1) with an overall heat-transfer coefficient of about 100
Btu/F-ft2-hr add one, two, and three with constant agitation.

In a second 2-L reactor vessel with a radial flow impeller operating at 100 rpm add four, five, six, and seven
until the mixture is homogeneous.

To reactor #2 add eight followed by three equal portions of the homogeneous mixture in reactor #1.
Additionally, add nine and ten slowly with constant agitation. Care must be taken at this point in the reaction
to control any temperature rise that may be the result of an exothermic reaction.

Using a screw extrude attached to a #4 nodulizer place the mixture piece-meal on a 316SS sheet (300 x 600
mm). Heat in a 460K oven for a period of time that is in agreement with Frank & Johnston's first order rate
expression (see JACOS, 21, 55), or until golden brown.

Once the reaction is complete, place the sheet on a 25ºC heat-transfer table allowing the product to come to
equilibrium.

Conversion Factors
1 teaspoon = 5cm3
235 cm3 = 1 cup
ºC = 9/5ºF +32

STOICHIOMETRY LAB—Simple Weight Loss

A balanced equation indicates the proportions between reactants and products. More
specifically, the coefficients in the equation indicate the mole ratios between the chemical
substances. Thus, it is possible to determine how much product will be produced from a
given amount of reactant. This predicted amount can then be compared with the actual
amount produced to determine the percent yield of the reaction.
In this experiment, you will investigate two reactions:
1. Copper and aqueous silver nitrate yield silver and aqueous copper(II)
nitrate.
2. Sodium bicarbonate and aqueous sulfuric acid produce aqueous sodium
sulfate, water, and carbon dioxide gas.

SAFETY
 2M sulfuric acid can cause burns. Avoid skin and eye contact. Rinse spills with plenty of
water.

PROCEDURE
1. Obtain a beral pipet containing 2M H2SO4.
2. Obtain a clean, dry flask. Measure and record its mass.
Place approximately 0.30g of NaHCO 3 into the flask.
Find the combined mass of the flask and sodium
bicarbonate and record.
3. Determine the exact mass of sodium bicarbonate by
subtraction. This mass must be between 0.20 and 0.40
g. Record the mass of sodium bicarbonate in a data
table.
4. Record the TOTAL mass of all the components of the
lab: sodium bicarbonate, flask, dropper and sulfuric
acid.
5. SLOWLY, drop by drop, add the sulfuric acid to the
sodium bicarbonate to generate carbon dioxide gas.
Continue releasing the acid in this manner until gas
production ceases.
6. Measure and record the TOTAL mass of all the
components again (like in step 4).
7. Return the beral pipet with the remainder of the sulfuric
acid. Rinse the contents of the flask down the drain
with water. Clean up your lab station.
DATA
Construct a data table for each reaction to display your laboratory measurements. Make sure that
each value is clearly labeled.

ANALYSIS
1. Write a balanced equation for the reaction.

2. Calculate the actual mass of carbon dioxide produced (“actual yield”).

3. Using the balanced equation, calculate the mass of carbon dioxide that should be produced
from the mass of sodium bicarbonate that you used (“theoretical yield”).

CONCLUSIONS
 Calculate the percent yield of the carbon dioxide using the equation below (show your work).
experimental yield
% yield =  100
theoretical yield

 A perfect percent yield would be 100%. Comment on your degree of accuracy and suggest
possible sources of measurement error. How could these errors be reduced in the future?

Limiting Reactant Exploration Lab: How much Carbon Dioxide?

Introduction:
In this lab you will do a cool reaction, make some measurements, make a graph, and then
write down some observations. The reaction that you will do is the reaction between
vinegar and baking soda. In this reaction, carbon dioxide, CO2 will be produced. Chemists
use chemical symbols to show the reaction. The reaction is:

CH3COOH (aq) + NaHCO3  H2O + CO2 + NaCH3COO

Vinegar Baking Water Carbon Sodium
Soda Dioxide Acetate

Materials:
 Apparatus as pictured below
 Vinegar
 Baking Soda
To simplify: Here is a picture of what you will need:

Procedure:
Follow this procedure as closely as possible.
1. place 0.25 g into a paper towel
2. Get the appropriate amount of vinegar into the flask
3. Set-up the apparatus—and mix.
4. Record the amount of CO2 collected

HAVE YOUR TEACHER SIGN HERE IMMEDIATELY AFTER COLLECTING DATA

Questions
1. Describe in detail what occurred (your observations) when the vinegar was

use are, but not including (gas given off, fizzing, foaming, balloon expanding)

2. Describe the pattern of how much carbon dioxide, CO2 was formed as you
added more and more vinegar. Relate this to the graph.

3. For each trial: explain which substance was the limiting and excess reagent.
Explain how you were able to determine this.

4. You should have noticed that as you increased the amount of vinegar eventually
you got the same amount of carbon dioxide, CO2. Explain why that occurred.

Chemistry
Limiting Reactant Lab

Introduction
A limiting reactants is defined as one of the reactants in a chemical reaction that will be
used up first. The purpose of this lab is to determine the amount of precipitate that will be
produced when a given amount of calcium chloride and sodium sulfate are mixed.

Once you have massed the calcium chloride and the sodium sulfate you will need to do
each of the following before you proceed with the rest of the experiment.
 Write the balanced chemical reaction noting the states of matter for all substances.
(See solubility chart to determine which substance precipitates.)
 Determine which reagent, calcium chloride or sodium sulfate, is limiting.
 Predict the amount of the precipitate that will be produced.

Once you have done these three things, show them to your instructor. Then you may begin
the experiment.

Procedure
1. Label and mass a test tube. The test tube must be completely dry
2. Obtain about 0.30 grams of each reagent (It doesn’t matter how much you get just
as long as you know exactly how much you obtain), and determine both which
reagent is limiting and how much precipitate you will discover.
3. Dissolve the calcium chloride into 3 mL of deionized water by carefull flicking the
test tube (Your instructor will show you how to do this. Dissolve the sodium sulfate
into 3-mL of deionized water.
4. Pour the sodium sulfate solution into the test tube with calcium chloride in it.
Take care to get all of the sodium sulfate into the calcium chloride test tube.
5. Remove the stopper and then place your sample into a centrifuge and spin out the
precipitate. (Caution should be used in using this device. Your teacher will instruct
you on proper use of a centrifuge)
6. Decant, or pour off, the liquid (supernatant) above the precipitate. Be careful not to
allow any of the precipitate to be poured out.
7. Add about 10-mL of deionized water to your precipitate and spin it again. Decant
again and repeat this step two more times for a total of four centrifuges
8. SHOW YOUR PRODUCT TO YOUR TEACHER AND GET HIS SIGNATURE.
Set your labeled test tube into a drying oven overnight.
9. Weigh your test tube and determine the mass of the precipitate that you have.
SHOW YOUR PRODUCT TO YOUR TEACHER AND GET HIS SIGNATURE
AGAIN. Compare this amount to what you expected to get from your calculations.

 Name

Calculations
Show all calculations needed to determine the expected amount of precipitate
required to do the experiment. This should include the balanced chemical reaction and all
appropriate stoichiometric calculations.

Questions
1. Why did you have to mass the test tube prior to beginning the experiment?

2. Why did you need to add water to the solid calcium chloride and solid sodium
sulfate to cause the reaction to occur?

3. Comment on sources of error.

4. What was your percentage of error?

5. Draw a picture of the two test tubes prior to adding the two chemicals. What had
happened to the calcium chloride? What happened to the sodium sulfate.

6. Now draw a picture of the test tube once you have mixed the two chemicals.
Where are all of the chemicals now? Label this in your diagram.
