Document Summary

Chemistry: the science that deals with the composition and properties of matter. Matter: anything that occupies space and displays the properties of mass and inertia. Composition: parts or components of a sample of matter and their relative properties (water 5. 93% hydrogen and 94. 07% oxygen) Properties: qualities or attributes that we can use to distinguish one sample of matter from others (can be physical or chemical) Physical property: one that a sample of matter displays without changing its composition (color, malleable, brittle, ductile (drawn into a wire), conductor of heat and electricity. ) Physical change: physical properties change but composition is the same (change of state) Chemical change: one or more kinds of matter are converted to new kinds of matter (change in composition) Molecules are the smallest entity having the same proportions of the constituent atom as does the compound as a whole (compounds are substances containing two or more elements joined) Homogeneous mixture: a give solution that is uniform.

You will need: seven kinds of plastic containers with different recycle codes, scissors, two cups or beakers, two stirring rods or wooden craft sticks, room temperature water, 70% isopropyl alcohol, graduated cylinder, acetone, 2 plastic pipets, hot plate with a 400 mL beaker of boiling water (student groups may share the boiling water), tongs, and forceps.

Cut a small, flat piece (1.5 cm Â´ 1.5 cm) from each container (seven total) and start a data table to record the color and shape of each piece as well as the permanent marker letter label (AâG) your instructor previously marked on each container. If two containers are the same color, cut different shapes (triangle, rectangle, circle, etc.) to help with piece identification. Now you are ready to follow the flowchart. Record your observations in the data table as you go along.

Tap Water Test: Place all seven pieces of plastic in a beaker or cup of room temperature tap water. Stir vigorously with a stirring rod or wooden craft stick to dislodge any bubbles from the plastic pieces. Bubbles tend to adhere to plastics. How would this change the apparent density? Observe and record which pieces sink and which float.

70% Alcohol Test: Remove the pieces that float from the water. Add them to a beaker or cup containing about 20 mL of 70% isopropyl alcohol. Stir. Do the pieces sink or float in the 70% alcohol? How does the density of alcohol compare to water?

Using a plastic pipet, add a squirt of tap water to the beaker containing alcohol. Stir. Do any of the pieces begin to float? When adding water to 70% alcohol, how does the density of the solution change? Keep adding squirts of water and stir until one piece floats. According to the flowchart, what is the identity of this plastic? Remove the piece and record your results.

Add more squirts of water until a second piece floats. Remove the piece and record the identity of the second plastic. You can now identify the third piece since it is still sinking.

Boiling Water Test: Place the four pieces that sank in tap water in the beaker of boiling water for a minimum of 30 s. Using tongs, remove them one at a time and test their flexibility, noting their size and color. Record your results. Which plastics can you now identify using the flowchart?

Acetone Test: Place the final two plastic samples in a small amount of acetone for one minute. Record your results.

Check with your instructor to see whether you correctly identified the seven plastics. You are now ready for an unknown. If your unknown floats in the tap water test, you will need to use the known pieces for PP, HDPE, and LDPE along with your unknown to help you with the identification in the 70% alcohol test.

INTRODUCTION

Many transition metal cations can have more than one possible charge (Worksheet 1). Differently charged species of the same element can have different chemical and physical properties. Knowing the charge can allow separation of the different ions based on their properties. For example, Cu²⁺ is blue and stable in solution, while Cu⁺ is colorless and reacts with oxygen. Hemoglobin contains iron as Fe²⁺, but it is inactive at binding oxygen when the iron gets oxidized to Fe³⁺. There are many similar situations in which it is important to always properly indicate charges of ions.

This laboratory experiment uses the difference in chemical properties of Fe²⁺, iron(II), and Fe³⁺, iron(III), to quantify the amount of each present in a solution of unknown concentrations of each. You will first determine the amount of iron(II) in your sample by titrating with a reagent that does not react with iron(III). You will then titrate a second sample after converting all the iron(III) to iron(II) in order to determine the total iron present. The percent composition of Fe²⁺ in the unknown mixture will be calculated.

BACKGROUND

The concentrations of both iron(II) and iron(III) ions in a solution can be determined by titration with potassium permanganate. The reaction is an oxidation-reduction reaction, or redox, for short. A brief introduction to oxidation-reduction reactions is given in the background of the âAcids and Basesâ experiment. The permanganate ion effectively oxidizes iron(II) to iron(III) in an acidic solution while being reduced to manganese(II) ion. The balanced net ionic reaction is:

5 Fe²⁺(aq) + MnO4^â(aq) + 8 H⁺(aq) â 5 Fe³⁺(aq) + Mn²⁺(aq) + 4 H₂O(l)

Iron(III) is not oxidized by the permanganate ion, and thus does not react. Thus in order to determine the concentration of iron(III) ions, they must first be reduced to iron(II) ions. Zinc metal is used as the reducing agent, also under acidic conditions.

Zn(s) + 2 Fe³⁺(aq) â 2 Fe²⁺(aq) + Zn²⁺(aq) (reduction of the Fe3+)

Zn(s) + 2 H⁺(aq) â Zn²⁺(aq) + H₂(g) (a side reaction that oxidizes excess Zn)

The Zn2+ formed does not interfere with the subsequent titration because Zn2+ is not oxidized by permanganate. Notice that converting all the iron(III) to iron(II) means that the total iron concentration ([Fe2+] + [Fe3+]) is titrated, not just the iron(II) originally present.

Techniques

This is a lab will utilize several of the techniques introduced in the experiment âLaboratory Techniques and Measurements,â the procedures for which are given in Appendix B. Poor laboratory technique and misuse of the glassware will result in poor data results, which will affect the grade you receive on the laboratory report. In order to use your time efficiently in lab, review how to properly:

rinse glassware prepare a standard solution use a volumetric pipette

weigh by difference set up and use a burette use a graduated cylinder

heat samples on a hot plate

Analysis of Iron by Oxidation-Reduction Titration

This lab uses the common quantitative technique of titration. The only difference between the titration you will be doing in this lab and that done in the Molar Mass of a Known Acid lab is the type of reaction used: this lab will use a redox reaction in place of the acid-base reaction performed in the previous experiment.

In order to determine the concentrations of iron(II) and iron(III) ions in a solution containing both ions, two portions of the same sample must be titrated separately. This first titration will determine only the iron(II) concentration. A second sample will be treated with zinc metal in order to reduce the iron(III) to iron(II). The resulting solution will be titrated with potassium permanganate. The result of this titration will give the total iron concentration in the sample. The difference between the first and second titration is the equal to the iron(III) concentration.

In this titration, potassium permanganate serves as its own indicator. The intense purple color of the permanganate solution becomes colorless when the permanganate is reduced to manganese(II). Thus, as iron(II) is oxidized with the addition of the permanganate solution from the burette it will impart a purple color that will fade. However, once there is no iron(II) left in solution a faint purple color will remain, marking the endpoint of the titration. This color can be slightly altered by the presence of iron(III), which is yellow in solution. Remember that iron(III) is generated by the reaction between iron(II) with permanganate, increasing the yellow appearance of the solution and which can interfere with the detection of the endpoint. Phosphoric acid is added to help minimize this effect.
