BACKGROUND
The reaction of a carbonate with an acid is an example of a common chemical
reaction. One particular example is the reaction of acetic acid (vinegar) with
sodium hydrogen carbonate (baking soda). This reaction produces a salt, carbon
dioxide and water. A similar reaction is used by geologists to test rocks for the
presence of limestone (calcium carbonate) and could lead them to find oil. If
bubbles form, then the rock contains limestone.
Objectives (Copy WRyour notebooks): (10 points)
The objectives of this lab are:
v to experimentally determine the mass of NaCl that will be produced in
this reaction (actual yield),
v to calculate the theoretical yield of NaCl from the mass of baking soda
you started with
v to determine the % yield for the salt produced in the lab.
