Purpose: We experimented with different kinds of chemicals in order to observed their reaction with each other.

Abstract:

        The objective of this experiment was to observed the different kinds of reactions between different states of chemicals. There were many different kinds of results depending on the two kinds of chemicals and in one case, the way we made them react, like with Mg and Oz. To start with we had twelve individual chemicals to observe, on each chemical we check for states, (meaning liquid, solid or gas), color and odor if any. Once all twelve chemical’s observations were recorded we started to experiment by mixing individual chemicals with other chemicals and recorded observations based on what we saw during the reacting and then the final state or the result. In the end there were ten combinations we could do, and only one had no change at all. One had a powerful, blinding reaction, while many others had just a color change.

Results and Discussions:  By the end, there were 2 state changes, first the FeCI3 and AgNO3 creates some solid residue out of two liquid chemicals.  Then with Mg and Oz, there was gas being created. Then 2 other experiments reacted and created baubles: NaOH and HCI, NaOH and AgNO3. There was only one group, the HCI and Al, that had no reaction at ...
