De Jesus, Wilbert Date Finished
Ong, Hugh
Ture, Eva
Group #4
Set-up #1:
Picture #1: Place 20 drops (about 1 mL) of 0.1 M CuSO4 solution into a clean and dry test tube.
Description: Catolico put 20 drops of 0.1 M
of Copper sulfate(CuSO4) in a clean and dry
test tube.

Picture #2: Add (dropwise) 1 M NH3 solution, mixing the contents after each drop. Continue to
add until the color changes. Note the new color and the number of drops of 1 M ammonia added
and record it on your Lab Report.
Description: De Jesus, adding an ammonia in
Copper sulfate solution.
Picture #3: To the equilibrium mixture thus obtained, add (dropwise, counting the number of
drops added) 1 M HCl solution until the color changes back to pale blue. Record your
observations on your lab report.
Description: Color changes back to pale blue

Set-up #2:
Picture #1: Place 2 mL of H2PO4/HPO4 solution into a clean and dry test tube.
Description: Tura, put 2mL drops of
H2PO4/HPO4 in a clean and dry test tube.

Picture #2: Add a drop of 1 M HCl to the litmus papers. Record your observations on your lab
report.

Description: Carlo adding a drop of 1M HCl to

the litmus paper.
Picture #3: Add one drop of 1 M HCl solution to the test tube. Mix it and test it with litmus papers.
Record your observation on your lab report.
Description: Hugh mixing litmus paper in HCl
solution

Set-up #3:
Picture #1: Prepare a stock solution by adding 1 mL of 0.1 M iron(III) chloride, FeCl3, and 1 mL of
0.1 M potassium thiocyanate, KSCN, to 50 mL of distilled water in a beakerSet up four clean and
dry test tubes and label them. To each test tube, add about 2 mL of the stock equilibrium
mixture you just prepared. Use the first test tube as a standard to which you can compare the
color of the other solutions. To the second test tube add 10drops of 0.1 M iron(III) chloride
solution; to the third add 10 drops of 0.1 M KSCN solution. To the fourth add five drops of
saturated NaCl solution. Observe the color in each test tube and record your observations on
your lab report.

Description: Tura transferring stock solution in

the test tube
Set-up #4:

Picture #1: Place 5 drops of 1 M CoCl2 in a dry and clean test tube. Add concentrated HCl
dropwise until a color change occurs.

Description: Carlo dropping HCl in a CoCl2

solution.

Picture #2:

Record your observations on the pre lab journal (Report Sheet part). Place 1 mL CoCl2 in a
clean and dry test tube. Note the color. Immerse the test tube into a boiling water bath. Record
your observations on your lab report
Description: Color of CoCl2 after emmersing into a
boiling water.
