Lab day 2

So we came back after the weekend and after doing the calculations my group got Iron (II) Chloride! The color of the liquid was really weird and gross so thats cool. Also the copper was almost like a dried foam texture so that was cool too!

Lab day 1

Today we started the Copper (II) Chloride lab, I passed the pre-lab quiz with no problem. For day one we weighed a baby food jar, some CuCl2 and dissolved it in water to make it aqueous, and a nail. IN the lab the Copper Chloride is supposed to react with the iron nail to make solid copper and Iron (II) or (III) Chloride. Thats the interesting thing about this lab, you can get either one, I'm excited to see our results.

Limiting Reagent

Today we learned about the limiting reagent . I understood this lesson surprisingly well, and this website has a very good simplified explanation of limiting reagent, its crazy to think that we only have a we more days till finals... It scares me a bit...

Stoichiometry Start

So today we started new unit, Stoichiometry. Just from what we are doing right now it doesn't seem all that difficult. I get it but I watched this video for enrichment to make sure that I do understand it. I'm excited for this unit, and more excited for christmas break but finals are in the way of that...
