Columbus discovered America?  But he only made landfall in the Bahamas and Cuba?  Wait didn’t the Vikings make the voyage before he did?  Wait the Chinese mapped out the America’s 70 years before the Viking voyage?  Wait, didn’t native american Indian’s “discover” the America’s first?  Wait wasn’t the America’s already here?

Lab 4 – The Metal Foil Lab

Objectives:

1. Calculate the Thickness of an aluminum and copper foil (thin piece of metal).

2.  Determine the number of atoms high a copper foil and aluminum foil are using volume, density and unit cell calculations.

The metal foil lab activity is not a formal writeup but please complete it as per the procedure in the handout that I gave.  A piece of paper with your work neatly written with units and sig figs showing all calculations will suffice.

Discussed the volume unit relatives cm3 = ml and the conversions of m3 to cm3metric prefixes:   

K H D [   ] d c m  —–>  micro, nano, pico

Conversion large number = small unit —–> small number = large unit

Study for TEST 1 – Wednesday –  10/11
 
Test 1 topics:  – 
Please go back the appropriate worksheets, keys,and lectures in the past 3 weeks to review the following concepts
1.  Coloumbs Law:  
 
No calculations with the formula but you should be aware how it applies to atoms ability to oxidize or reduce, solubility (why some ionic solids will dissolve in water while others do not or precipitate).
 
2.  Voltaic Cell/galvanic cell 
 
 Diagram, determining anode, cathode, charges, flow of electrons, salt bridge flow of ions, E0 calculation, use of reduction potential table,  writing balanced half reactions and overall reactions, predicting the voltage change when concentrations change (Le Chateliers Principle), molarity (M), predicting precipitates that would lower the molarity of certain ions when they become solids, voltage vs current.  Spontaneity and equilibrium, The U diagram.
 
3: Electrolytic Cell – 
 
Diagram and label all parts with flow of charge from a power source.  Predict the products at each anode.   Calculating the moles, molarity, or grams of the products using total time, amperage and Faradays constant.
Determining E0 cell, half reactions, overall reaction, spontaneity.
 
 Example 17.9 in Textbook gives 2 more problems with solutions
 

Electrolysis quiz Review Video is posted below:

4:  Unit Cell and alloys

Textbook: 10.6  – Lattice Structures

Basics of interstitial and substitutional alloys,  calculations using density, lattice constant and atomic radii with FCC or BCC.  Conversions, and use of Avogadros number.

 
There is no need to memorize the conversion factors (pm, nm) but you need to know what the FCC or BCC looks like and you should be able to figure out how many atom exist in each FCC or BCC. You should be able to complete all conversions of all the worksheet and Lab (4).

Richard Feynman said in Volume One of his Lectures on Physics:

If, in some cataclysm, all of scientific knowledge were to be destroyed, and only one sentence passed on to the next generation of creatures, what statement would contain the most information in the fewest words? I believe it is the atomic hypothesis that all things are made of atoms — little particles that move around in perpetual motion, attracting each other when they are a little distance apart, but repelling upon being squeezed into one another.

1.  Re-write conclusions for Lab 1 and or Lab 3.

I handed back Lab 1 (graded) and Lab 3 (non-graded) to you in class today.  IF YOU LOST POINTS ON YOUR CONCLUSION you may re-write it.  Type and print it and staple it to your existing labs.  Please use my comments on your graded lab 1 as your guide.  If you think lab 3 conclusion needs to be edited please REDO Lab 3 or look it over based on how I graded lab 1. Some of you are new to me in how I grade labs, especially Lab Conclusions.

Basic Lab Conclusion Guidelines:

The first paragraph – (Analysis of your objectives) – or section of your lab must parallel with your objectives.  In your objectives you told me what you were going to accomplish and now you must tell me what you actually found.  If you set out to do something and did not then points will be lost.  In this section you must write what you did according to your objectives. For instance in the 1st lab, we determined the experimental voltage of the Gerber cell and determines the accuracy of your results (percent error).   I want you to write what you obtained for these 2 objectives.  DO NOT WRITE A PROCEDURE ON HOW YOU DID THIS! This really a results section which summarizing the most pertinent data that you collected.  This is half of your conclusion.

In the second paragraph – (Error analysis) – of the conclusion, you must evaluate your experimental data through error analysis.  This requires thought and logical comments that supports your outcomes.  In the first lab you have a LARGE negative percent error and thus you need to list and explain errors that caused your experimental value to be under the theoretical value.   In this section you will use your numbers obtained experimentally to be your guide. You will describe all errors and tie them to your results. YOU NEED TO EXPLAIN HOW YOUR MEASURED VALUES ACTUALLY LED TO a lower value than the standard as was the case in Lab 1.  Be logical and concise.  You will only lose points if your explanation is not logical or if YOU ARE VAGUE!!!  This is analytical writing and thus no statements like, “I feel” or “I believe” should be used.
