Chemistry coursework By Edward Watts AIM: To compare the theoretical masses of CuO to the actual masses obtained in the experiment. HYPOTHESIS: I am trying to compare the theoretical mass of CuO to the actual mass in the experiment. I am going to need the theoretical mass of CuO first. Calculations of the theoretical mass of CuO 1 79 = 0.01265227 x 28 1g=0.35426356 1.5g=0.53139534 2g=0.70852712 2.5g=0.8856589 3g=1.06279068 3.5g=1.23992246 4g=1.41765424 4.5g=1.59418602 5g=1.7713178 I had used some preliminary results from a similar experiment to make sure my theoretical results were relatively correct. Preliminary results: 1g 0.3 2g 0.6 3g 0.9 4g 1.3 5g 1.6 As you can see, the preliminary results are fairly accurate to my theoretical masses. I was pleased that the results turned out alright. PREDICTION: I predict that in theory the theoretical mass should be near or the same as the actual mass in the experiment, but there are factors that can stop the mass from being very accurate. METHOD: Equipment 1. Set up equipment. 2. Fill the test tube with 1g of CuCo3. Obtain 1g by zeroing the test...
