GROUP PERFORMANCE TASK #2 Common Compound and Properties Lab_Sept. 22, 2024
Day of Performance: Sept. 25, 2024
Submission of Lab Report: Sept. 26, 2024(to be attached in this worksheet, supported with some pictures while doing
the experiment)
See your group: (G1: Richwell, Jarred, Joel, Geuz)(G2: Lance, Raphael, Kerby, Ihron, Feona,)
Task: Students receive different compounds and are asked to identify them based on their physical and chemical
properties. They will test for properties like solubility, melting/boiling points, pH, and reaction with acids or bases.
Objective: To help students understand how to use various methods to identify compounds and their properties.
Output: Lab report with data analysis, conclusions, and explanations of identification methods.
Materials:
Several compounds-Sodium Chloride (NaCl) – Table Salt, Baking Soda (Sodium Bicarbonate, NaHCO₃)., Citric Acid-lemon
(C₆H₈O₇)
Water (H₂O)
Ethyl alcohol Litmus paper or pH meter
Alcohol lamp (for heating and melting/boiling tests)
Test tubes and test tube holder
Graduated Cylinder Beakers
Acid solution (e.g., hydrochloric acid, HCl)
Base solution (e.g., sodium hydroxide, NaOH)
Stirring rods Thermometer (for melting/boiling points)
Spatula
Safety goggles and gloves
Lab notebook and pen
Procedure:
Part 1: Solubility Test
Label Test Tubes: Label test tubes for each compound.
Add Water: Using a beaker, add about 10 mL of water into each test tube.
Test Solubility:
Add a small amount (about a spatula tip) of the compound into the water.
Stir with a stirring rod to see if the compound dissolves.
Record whether each compound is soluble or insoluble in water.
Optional: Repeat steps 2 and 3 using ethanol instead of water to check for solubility in non-polar solvents.
Part 2: pH Test
Prepare the Solution: For each compound, prepare a solution by dissolving a small amount of the compound in water (if
soluble).
Use Litmus Paper or pH Meter:
Dip litmus paper into the solution or use a pH meter to measure the pH.
Record whether the solution is acidic (pH < 7), neutral (pH = 7), or basic (pH > 7).
Part 3: Melting Point/Boiling Point Test
Set up Heating Apparatus: Set up alcohol lamp with a beaker of water for indirect heating.
Test Melting Point:
Place a small sample of the compound on a watch glass or in a boiling tube.
Gently heat it over the water bath and observe if/when the compound melts.
Record the temperature at which melting occurs using a thermometer.
Test Boiling Point: If applicable, heat the compound solution in a boiling tube or flask and record the temperature at
which boiling occurs.
Part 4: Reaction with Acid
Prepare Acid Solution: Pour a small amount (around 5 mL) of hydrochloric acid (HCl) into a test tube.
Add Compound: Add a small amount of the unknown compound to the acid.
Observe Reaction: Look for signs of a reaction such as bubbling (indicating gas production), color changes, or the
formation of a precipitate.
Record Observations: Note if the compound reacts with the acid and the nature of the reaction.
Part 5: Reaction with Base
Prepare Base Solution: Pour about 5 mL of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) into a test tube.
Add Compound: Add a small amount of the unknown compound to the base.
Observe Reaction: Record any bubbling, color changes, or other evidence of a chemical reaction.
Record Observations: Note the reaction (or lack thereof) between the compound and the base.
Present Lab Report:
Students should submit a lab report that includes:
A table summarizing all test results (solubility, pH, melting/boiling point, reaction with acid/base).
Analysis of how each test helped in identifying the compounds.
Conclusions for each compound, with evidence based on the tests performed.
