Molarity Lab

The second lab we are doing this quarter is about a murder mystery! It is kind of a play off on the game Clue, and our job is to figure out what mystery chemical was used to murder Ms. Scarlet.

First we set up double replacement reactions to see which substances had the likelihood of producing a clear liquid (as seen on the scene of the crime).

Then, we went back in lab and ran an experiment with NaCO3 and the mystery substance to see what precipitate it produced. We collected it in filter paper and are waiting for it to dry!

Once we collect the dried substance on Tuesday we can then determine the molarity of the substance and identify the murderer. 

Edit-- the murderer is Mr. Green because the molarity of AgNO3 is .06.
