Mass of solid: 1.65g-0.72=0.93g
Balanced chemical formula: 2Fe (s) +3CuSO4 (l)
Fe2(SO4)3 +3Cu
Limiting reactant: 1.02 mass of iron we got. /55.85g Fe =0.018 mol Fe
Theoretical yield: 0.005 mol Cu / 3CuSO4* 3Cu * 63.55 mol Cu= 0.3g
Percent yield: 0.93g / 0.3g * 100 = 310%
Reaction type: Single Displacement.
Discussion:
The reaction of the copper (II) sulfate and iron was appraised to find the products and what the
specific reaction what be from our observations. We also found the quantity of the theoretical
yield from the product. In this experiment we took a graduated cylinder and pipet and measured
10.0 ml of copper (II) sulfate. We put our 10.0 ml of copper (II) sulfate into a 50 ml beaker and
performed our quantity calculations. We had to find the mass of the copper (II) sulfate solution,
so we used the molarity (concentration) formula. The formula:
Molarity= moles of solute/liters of solution.
The solution has a molarity of 0.500 M. With that we calculated the moles and converted them
from moles to grams of the copper (II) sulfate solution.
We used a limited amount of tools in this lab. The eleven tools include Copper (II) sulfate, 10 ml
graduated cylinder, balance, iron, a disposable pipet, a ring pipet, 50 ml beaker, a wash bottle,
an Erlenmeyer flask, a filter paper, and a funnel. Our hypothesis was incorrect in that the copper
will go through a chemical change when it reacts with sulfate solution and turns to copper
sulfate.We actually found that Iron is the limiting reactant and that it became iron sulfate and
copper and gave us a percent yield of 310%. The reason behind the higher number is because
the was both iron and copper in the equation for the calculations that were left. Our conclusion
is that this was a single displacement reaction.
