In this activity, students use the virtual lab to identify an unknown metal by measuring its density and comparing their measurements to the densities of known metals.
-
In this activity students use the virtual lab to design an experiment to determine the identity of mislabeled bottles using the densities of the solutions inside.
-
Determine the concentration of an alcohol solution from its density.
Reaction Stoichiometry and Limiting Reagents
-
Set in the context of ground water contamination in Bangladesh, this stoichiometry and analytical chemistry activity examines the issues around identifying wells contaminated with arsenic. (Part of a larger online…
-
In this activity, students use the virtual lab to determine how 4 unknown substances react with each other including their stoichiometric coefficients.
-
In this limiting reagents problem, students mix together solutions in different ratios in an attempt to produce a final solution that contains only 1 product.
-
Textbook-style practice limiting reagent exercises with that can be used as a way to "predict and check" your answers using the virtual lab.
-
In this activity, students practice with experiments involving limiting reagents and the test their knowledge to determine the concentration of an unknown solution.
-
In this limiting reagents problem, students are given specific concentrations of DNA solutions and are asked to predict what products and reactants will remain after a specific volumes are mixed and reaction has…
-
In this advanced limiting reagent problem, students use the virtual lab to determine the concentration of a solution of DNA by reacting it with known amounts of a fluorescent dye which binds to the DNA.
