PRACTICAL WORK (1 hour) 8TH GRADE
The work is carried out by students independently under the supervision of the teacher.
I present the result of my many years of work on preparing and conducting practical work in a secondary school during chemistry lessons in grades 8–9:
- “Preparation and properties of oxygen”,
- “Preparation of salt solutions with a certain mass fraction of dissolved substance”,
- “Generalization of information about the most important classes of inorganic compounds”,
- "Electrolytic dissociation"
- “Oxygen subgroup” (see the next issue of the newspaper “Chemistry”).
All of them were tested by me in the classroom. They can be used when studying a school chemistry course both according to the new program of O.S. Gabrielyan, and according to the program of G.E. Rudzitis, F.G. Feldman.
A student experiment is a type of independent work. The experiment not only enriches students with new concepts, skills, and abilities, but is also a way to test the truth of the knowledge they have acquired, contributes to a deeper understanding of the material, and the assimilation of knowledge. It allows you to more fully implement the principle of variability in the perception of the surrounding world, since the main essence of this principle is the connection with life, with the future practical activities of students.
Goals. Be able to obtain oxygen in the laboratory and collect it using two methods: air displacement and water displacement; confirm experimentally the properties of oxygen; know safety rules.
Equipment. A metal stand with a foot, an alcohol lamp, matches, a test tube with a gas outlet tube, a test tube, a ball of cotton wool, a pipette, a beaker, a splinter, a dissecting needle (or wire), a crystallizer with water, two conical flasks with stoppers.
Reagents. KMnO 4 crystalline (5–6 g), lime water Ca(OH) 2, charcoal,
Fe (steel wire or paper clip).
Safety regulations.
Handle chemical equipment with care!
Remember! The test tube is heated by holding it in an inclined position along its entire length with two or three movements in the flame of an alcohol lamp. When heating, point the opening of the test tube away from yourself and your neighbors.
Previously, students receive homework related to studying the content of the upcoming work according to instructions, while simultaneously using materials from 8th grade textbooks by O.S. Gabrielyan (§ 14, 40) or G.E. Rudzitis, F.G. Feldman (§ 19 , 20). In notebooks for practical work, write down the name of the topic, the purpose, list the equipment and reagents, and draw up a table for the report.

Methods for collecting gases are determined by their properties: solubility and interaction with water, air, and toxicity of the gas. There are two main methods of gas collection: air displacement and water displacement. Air displacement collect gases that do not interact with air.
Based on the relative density of the gas in the air, a conclusion is made on how to position the vessel for collecting gas (Fig. 3, a and b).
In Fig. 3, a shows the collection of gas with an air density of more than one, for example, nitrogen oxide (IV), whose air density is 1.58. In Fig. Figure 3b shows the collection of gas with an air density of less than one, for example hydrogen, ammonia, etc.
By displacing water, gases are collected that do not interact with water and are poorly soluble in it. This method is called collecting gas over water , which is carried out as follows (Fig. 3, c). The cylinder or jar is filled with water and covered with a glass plate so that there are no air bubbles left in the cylinder. The plate is held by hand, the cylinder is turned over and lowered into a glass bath of water. The plate is removed under water, and a gas outlet tube is inserted into the open hole of the cylinder. The gas gradually displaces water from the cylinder and fills it, after which the hole in the cylinder under water is closed with a glass plate and the cylinder filled with gas is removed. If the gas is heavier than air, then the cylinder is placed upside down on the table, and if it is lighter, then the cylinder is placed upside down on the plate. Gases above the water can be collected in test tubes, which, like the cylinder, are filled with water, closed with a finger and tipped into a glass or glass bath of water.
Poisonous gases are usually collected by displacing water, since in this case it is easy to note the moment when the gas completely fills the vessel. If there is a need to collect gas by displacing air, then proceed as follows (Fig. 3, d).
A stopper with two gas outlet tubes is inserted into the flask (jar or cylinder). Through one, which reaches almost to the bottom, gas is let in, the end of the other is lowered into a glass (jar) with a solution that absorbs gas. So, for example, to absorb sulfur(IV) oxide, an alkali solution is poured into a glass, and water is poured into a glass to absorb hydrogen chloride. After filling the flask (jar) with gas, the stopper with gas outlet tubes is removed from it and the vessel is quickly closed with a stopper or glass plate, and the stopper with gas outlet tubes is placed in a gas-absorbing solution.
Experience 1. Obtaining and collecting oxygen
Assemble the installation according to Fig. 4. Place 3-4 g of potassium permanganate in a large dry test tube and close with a stopper with a gas outlet tube. Secure the test tube in a rack at an angle with the opening slightly upward. Place a crystallizer with water next to the stand on which the test tube is mounted. Fill the empty test tube with water, cover the hole with a glass plate and quickly turn it upside down into the crystallizer. Then take out the glass plate in the water. There should be no air in the test tube. Heat potassium permanganate in a burner flame. Place the end of the gas outlet tube in water. Observe the appearance of gas bubbles.
A few seconds after the bubbles begin to flow, place the end of the gas outlet tube into the hole of a test tube filled with water. Oxygen displaces water from the test tube. After filling the test tube with oxygen, cover its opening with a glass plate and invert it.

Observe gas evolution.

Kipp apparatus used to produce hydrogen, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide. The solid reagent is placed in the middle spherical reservoir of the apparatus on a plastic ring liner, which prevents the solid reagent from entering the lower reservoir. Zinc granules are used as a solid reagent to produce hydrogen, carbon dioxide - pieces of marble, hydrogen sulfide - pieces of iron sulfide. The pieces of the poured solid should be about 1 cm 3 in size. It is not recommended to use powder, as the gas current will be very strong. After loading the solid reagent into the apparatus, a liquid reagent is poured through the upper neck (for example, a dilute solution of hydrochloric acid when producing hydrogen, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide). The liquid is poured in such a quantity that its level (with the gas valve open) reaches half of the upper spherical expansion of the lower part. The gas is passed through for 5-10 minutes to displace the air from the apparatus, after which the gas outlet valve is closed and a safety funnel is inserted into the upper neck. The gas outlet tube is connected to the device where the gas needs to be passed.
When the tap is closed, the released gas displaces the liquid from the spherical expansion of the device, and it stops working. When the tap is opened, the acid again enters the tank with the solid reagent, and the apparatus begins to operate. This is one of the most convenient and safe methods for obtaining gases in the laboratory.
Collect gas in a vessel possible using various methods. The two most common methods are the water displacement method and the air displacement method. The choice of method is determined by the properties of the gas to be collected.
Air displacement method. Almost any gas can be collected using this method. Before sampling the gas, it is necessary to determine whether it is lighter than air or heavier. If the relative density of the gas in air is greater than unity, then the receiver vessel should be kept with the opening upward, since the gas is heavier than air and will sink to the bottom of the vessel (for example, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, oxygen, chlorine, etc.). If the relative density of the gas in air is less than unity, then the receiver vessel should be kept with the opening downward, since the gas is lighter than air and will rise to the top of the vessel (for example, hydrogen, etc.). The filling of the vessel can be controlled in different ways, depending on the properties of the gas. For example, to determine oxygen, a smoldering splinter is used, which, when brought to the edge of the vessel (but not inside!) flares up; When determining carbon dioxide, the hot torch goes out.
Water displacement method. This method can only collect gases that are insoluble in water (or only slightly soluble) and do not react with it. To collect gas, you need a crystallizer filled 1/3 with water. The receiving vessel (most often a test tube) is filled to the top with water, closed with a finger and lowered into the crystallizer. When the hole of the vessel is under water, it is opened and a gas outlet tube is inserted into the vessel. After all the water has been displaced from the vessel by gas, the hole is closed under water with a stopper and the vessel is removed from the crystallizer.
Checking gas purity. Many gases burn in air. If you ignite a mixture of flammable gas and air, an explosion will occur, so the gas must be checked for purity. The test involves burning a small portion of gas (about 15 ml) in a test tube. To do this, the gas is collected in a test tube and ignited from the flame of an alcohol lamp. If the gas does not contain air impurities, then combustion is accompanied by a slight pop. If a sharp barking sound is heard, then the gas is contaminated with air and needs to be cleaned.
