10. Your lab choices

11. Flashing Lights: Concentration Determination
Using color to determine concentration
Using a standard curve you will be able to calculate the unknown concentration by interpolation.

12. Ice Cream Chemistry Colligative properties
Study of the impact of amount of solute on boiling point and freezing point.
Extra Credit – Research and implement how colligative properties are used to make ice cream.

13. Battery Chemistry
Batteries are powered through oxidation/reduction reactions.
You will be studying this chemistry in your lab.
Recommended for those going into AP

14. Master of Titrations
You will be running multiple labs that allow for you to analyze and determine the concentration of an acid and base.
For those that enjoyed the first titration lab.

15. Eat Your Vitamins!
Vitamins are compounds that are vital nutrients for living organisms
Many companies sell vitamin supplements
You will be investigating whether the advertised amount aligns with the actual amount.

16. Swim with the Fishes
Seawater contains many different types of compounds.
Roughly 3.5% of the seawater is various compounds.
Analyzing ions found in seawater from Santa Monica, CA.

17. Crazy for Le Chatelier
Equilibriums have certain ratios of products and reactants that needs to be maintained.
Keq is the mathematical value that describes this.
Recommended for those taking AP

18. Direct and Indirect Love of the Gas Laws
Study of Boyles and Charles Law
Does the data show these direct and indirect relationships?
Get to use dry ice!

19. Double Bubble Toil and the Ideal Gas Law!
When acids react, bubbles of CO2 are sometimes produced
If you know certain conditions then values of this acid can be calculated using PV=nRT

20. Catching Fire
Values like Cs and ΔHfusion are often given, but we can experimentally determine them.
Running multiple calorimetry experiments.

21. Real Life Walter White: Making Compounds from Aspirin
Utilize organic chemistry to synthesize methyl salicylate (wintergreen smell in food) from aspirin.
Large amount of research will be required

22. Real Life CSI Forensic science required extensive amounts of chemistry
You will be using chemistry to detect unseen fingerprints and for the presence of arsenic/antimony.

25. Background Reading
Read the excerpt and answer the corresponding questions
This will be used to inform your procedure

26. How Do I Make a Procedure?
Make sure to read the uploaded handouts. THESE WILL GIVE YOU A STARTING POINT.
Be as detailed as possible. No step is too small to write down.
Draw pictures if it is going to help you visualize the lab that you are going to run.
Don’t forget that you need to control variables!

27. Develop a Procedure
With your partner develop a procedure by filling in the gaps to the procedure that was given to you.
Have Mr. Lance check it when you are completed.

29. Closing Time
AP list will be posted on my door afterschool today
