CHEM 30AL Summer 2003 Experiment 11 Synthesis and Analysis of Iron oxalate Part 3 Pre lab Report Guidelines for Colorimetic Analysis for the Iron Oxalate Complex i Title ii Reference of procedures iii Introduction summarize the goal s for this part of the experiment as well as any techniques that you will be using in achieving such goal s iv Procedures flow chart see P 101 under period 2 Colorimetric analysis of Iron v MSDS information The following chemicals will require you to use the MSDS database on the Web see Lecture Syllabus Ascorbic Acid and Bipyridyl or Dipyridyl or Bipyridine You should record the following MSDS information in your notebook for the chemicals listed above Printouts directly from the Web pages will NOT be accepted a Product Name b Chemical Formula c Formula Weight d Melting Point Boiling Point and Density e Health Hazard Data summarize in your own words f Spill and Disposal procedures summarize in your own words vi Prelab study questions Must show all work for FULL credit Complete problems 3 and 4 under period 2 on p 99 IMPORTANT Review the concepts of equivalent weight from 20L Note Mistake in question 3 the CORRECT balanced chemical equation should be Ni 2 n NH3 m pH2O mHCl mNH4 excess HCl OH H2O vii Data observations start a NEW page for this section Set up tables but leave blank You MUST record all the observations into your lab notebook during your lab sessions CHEM 30AL Summer 2003 Experiment 11 Synthesis and Analysis of Iron oxalate Part 3 Post lab Report Guidelines for Iron Oxalate Experiment Part 3 Colorimetric Analysis of Iron Refer to Lab Schedule for Due Date This is a GROUP report i e ONE post lab PER GROUP A Abstract refer to PART 1 post lab guidelines for this experiment on how to write the abstract In general remember this format since those are the common materials that should be included in any abstract B Data see p 103 under Colorimetric Analysis Write down the names of all the members in the group Write out the responsibility of each member both for the experiment and for the postlab report Data tables with all the experimental data should have proper titles labels C Graph s Beer s Law calibration plot of absorbance vs concentration for all the standard solutions Your graph must have proper title labels Data points must be clearly marked Make sure you use the correct type of graph paper If you use EXCEL make sure that the gridlines are set properly D Data Analysis MUST SHOW ALL WORK FOR FULL CREDIT Refer to Week 1 Lecture guide and concepts from 20L for this part of the report 1 Calculate the concentrations for all the standard solutions 2 From the Beer s law calibration graph calculate the slope of the calibration line with proper unit indicate which two points on the line you use for calculating the slope or use EXCEL to find the slope of the best fit line 3 from the calculated slope of the line and the absorbance of solution B determine the concentration of iron in the solution B with proper unit 4 Use the result from 3 to calculate the moles of iron gram of product 5 Use the result from 4 to calculate the experimental molecular weight of your product 6 Calculate the ratio of moles of oxalate grams of sample from PART 2 and the moles of iron grams of sample your result from 4 This gives you the number of oxalate in the complex 7 Determine the number of potassium ions required to neutralize the charge in the complex base on your result from 6 Explain your reasonings 8 Propose a molecular formula for the complex neutral salt that you prepared

Analysis of Iron This is a GROUP report E Error Analysis Refer to week 1 lecture guide as well as lecture guides FROM 20L for details on error analysis Absolute uncertainties for various laboratory equipment are listed on page 31 of your lab manual i ii iii iv v vi error in concentration for ONE of your standard solution all terms identified and error bar placed on graph error in absorbance for ONE of your standard solution all terms identified and error bar placed on graph calculate the range of slopes of standard line You MUST show either mathematically how you obtain those slopes i e max slope and min slope must be labeled clearly on your graph error in absorbance of your solution B unknown error in concentration of your solution B unknown Calculate the inherent error for unknown solution B Note If no error was given on the reagent bottle you may assume the relative error in the stock iron II sulfate solution is 1 If you use 1 ml plastic disposable syringe when preparing the standards assume the absolute error in the syringe to be 0 1mL Use this syringe absolute error instead of the one listed on page 31 of the lab manual F Conclusions i ii Calculate the difference in your experimental molecular weight the one for the compound you are proposing with the theoretical molecular weight of the complex i e the expected molecular weight Discuss reasons for the differences
