Mineral raw materials

Rln3hgPHftnD71
Single crystal of silicon

Can mineral raw materialsmineral raw materialsmineral raw materials that we source from the Earth surprise us with something? The world as we know it would not exist without concrete, steel, aluminium, glass or plastics. You may have already heard about carbon, appearing in the form of a diamond or graphene, and if you do not, you will certainly learn about this element in a chemistry lesson. Many discoveries, without which we cannot imagine modern civilization, we owe to chemists. Have you ever heard about the method of breeding crystals of Jan Czochralski? Its discovery, as it often happens, happens by chance. Professor Czochralski mistakenly immersed the nib of his fountain pen in a crucible with molten tin and it turned out that a thin thread of crystallized metal hanging at the end of the nib was entirely a single crystal (single crystal). His idea, developed in 1916, is the oldest and until now the only known way to receive this type of material.

Task 1

What do you think will happen if you will put some salt (sodium chloride) into the copper(II) sulphate solution in which the aluminium foil is immersed? Before watching the movie „Testing the influence of sodium chloride on the reaction of copper(II) sulphate with aluminium”, write down the research question and hypothesis. Write down your observations and conclusions after getting acquainted with the film material.

Nagranie eksperymentu, do realizacji którego potrzebne są: łyżka, chlorek sodu, folia aluminiowa, siarczan sześć miedzi dwa (niebieski roztwór w szklanym pojemniku). Laborant wkłada rolkę aluminium do pojemnika z niebieskim roztworem i czeka kilka sekund, jaka zajdzie reakcja, nic nie zmienia. Wówczas używając łyżeczki, laborant nasypuje do szklanego pojemnika z niebieskim płynem łyżeczkę białego proszku - chlorku sodu. Następuje po kilku sekundach reakcja rozłożenia folii aluminiowej. Niebieska ciecz staje się coraz ciemniejsza, wytrąca się ciemny osad na wierzchu niebieskiej cieczy.
Experiment 1
Research problem

Testing the influence of sodium chloride on the reaction of copper(II) sulphate with aluminium.

Hypothesis

Aluminium is a metal more active than copper, so it should displace copper from the solution CuSO4(aq).

You will need
  • copper(II) sulphate solution,

  • aluminium foil,

  • sodium chloride,

  • beaker,

  • measuring cylinder,

  • teaspoon.

Instruction
  1. Pour approx. 20 cmIndeks górny 3 of copper(II) sulphate solution and insert a piece of aluminium foil so that it protrudes above the vessel. Watch for changes.

  2. Then add a pinch of sodium chloride to the solution. Are any changes visible now?

Chemistry of cleaning products

In the ancient times perfumes had a high price and made a great career. In the contemporary world, we meet countless fragrances. It is believed that the fragrances can have a strong impact on us, setting the right mood. Probably the aroma of coffee stimulates and removes fatigue, the smell of lemon and violet helps to concentrate, and the wood violet itself has a positive effect on the speed of learning. Aromatherapy is used in medicine, recently for example to support the processes of waking people from coma. Fragrances facilitate communication in the animal world. An example is bombykol – the first of the chemically described pheromones, secreted by female mulberry silkworm that attracts males from a distance of about 10 kilometres.

Task 2

Calculate how many particles of bombykol were in 6.4 mg of the test tube that Butenandt received, since the trillion molecules of this compound have a mass of approx. 4·10-4 g? Is the smell a physical property or rather a chemical property of the substance?

Chemistry and health. Chemistry in the kitchen

Contemporary pharmacy and modern cuisine are two areas that combines care of the health. Hippocrates, considered the father of medicine, said: Your food should be a medicine, and your medicine should be food. These words make us realize how important the influence of nutrition has on the quality of our lives. This applies not only to people struggling with obesity and such diseases such as phenylketonuria or diabetes, but also those who do not notice this dependence on a daily basis.

Task 3

Before you conduct the „Detection of glucose in the solution” experiment, make a note of the research question and hypothesis. Write down your observations and conclusions after the research.

Experiment 2
Research problem

Detecting the presence of glucose in the solution.

Hypothesis

Glucose gives a positive result in Tollens’ reagent.

You will need
  • glucose solution,

  • Tollens’ reagent, i.e. ammonia solution of silver oxide,

  • a brand new test tube (or carefully degreased),

  • water bath,

  • tripod,

  • ceramic mesh,

  • thermometer,

  • burner.

Instruction
  1. For a brand new or well‑degreased test tube, put approx. 2 cmIndeks górny 3 of glucose solution and add some Tollens’ reagent.

  2. Place the tube in a water bath and heat for approx. 80 minutes at a temperature of approx. 80°C.

Chemistry of the soil

Chemicals play a huge role in agriculture. Pesticides help to destroy pests, weeds, insects, fungi, can act as a repellent or luring agent for animals, facilitate the removal of leaves, and help to dry them before harvesting and reducing excessive number of flowers in horticulture. In addition, the use of fertilizers supplies the soil with various macro- and microelements. Of course, all of these measures should be used by farmers in accordance with the given rules of dosing, preparation of solutions of a certain concentration and their mutual mixing.

Task 4

Calculate how many grams of ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) should be weighed to get the same amount of nitrogen as found in 40 g of urea, a compound of the formula: CO(NH2)2?

Fuels – now and in the future

By reading this e‑textbook, you will learn how chemists have contributed to the development of energy and transport over the years, obtaining increasingly efficient fuels, improving energy sources and materials used to build cars, planes or space ships. What will humanity do when fossil fuels run out? Will the solution be the use of gas from shale deposits or will the energy industry go in a completely different direction?

Task 5

Before you watch the demonstration of the experiment „Testing the perhydrol reaction with potassium permanganate”, write down the research question and hypothesis. Write down your observations and conclusions as well.

Experiment 3
Research problem

Checking whether the reaction of perhydrol with potassium permanganate is an exergonic process.

Hypothesis

A large amount of energy is released in the reaction of perhydrol with potassium permanganate.

You will need
  • conical flask (Erlenmeyer flask) or beaker,

  • measuring cylinder,

  • spoon,

  • perhydrol,

  • crystals of potassium permanganate.

Instruction
  1. Pour approx. 40 cmIndeks górny 3 of perhydrol into a conical flask (30% solution H2O2) and carefully put some crystals of potassium permanganate (KMnO4).

  2. After the experiment, carefully check the temperature of the flask with your hand.

Summary
R18CrnOVkI3yO
Observations (Uzupełnij). Conclusions (Uzupełnij).

Hydrogen peroxide, which is a component of perhydrol, reduces the potassium manganate to manganese dioxide, according to the reaction equation:

2KMnO4 + 3H2O2 2MnO2+ 2KOH + 2H2O + 3O2

The resulting manganese dioxide is a catalyst for the decomposition reaction H2O2:

2H2O2 MnO2 2H2O + O2

This reaction is strongly exergonic, which causes a rapid boiling of the solution and evaporation of the water formed.

Chemistry of packaging and clothing

In many places our planet looks like a big landfill. We buy more and more often the goods that we use only for a short time. For example, food items in disposable packaging, as well as the content of our clothing closet, when trying to keep up with the ever‑changing fashion. We choose plastic products more often, which due to high competition on the market are more and more attractive to us, although they adversely affect the natural environment. Who wonders how much day‑to‑day waste is thrown away? What to do with this mountain of rubbish? These lie not only near large urban agglomerations – these often end up in seas and oceans. We have accumulated quite a lot in space as well.
