Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of adding an excess of sulfuric acid in the experiment described?

  • To quantify the volume of carbon dioxide evolved
  • To remove impurities from the calamine lotion
  • To accelerate the reaction between zinc compounds and sulfuric acid (correct)
  • To neutralize the zinc compounds
  • What does the chemist aim to achieve by plotting a graph of the volume of carbon dioxide evolved against time?

  • To determine the color change due to the reaction
  • To identify the presence of impurities in the calamine lotion
  • To observe any changes in temperature during the reaction
  • To analyze the rate of reaction between zinc compounds and sulfuric acid (correct)
  • Why is it important to draw a best-fit curve through all the points on the graph?

  • To highlight outliers in the data
  • To ensure accuracy in determining the volume of carbon dioxide evolved (correct)
  • To estimate the total mass of zinc present in the sample
  • To speed up the completion of the reaction
  • What does a flat portion in the graph of volume against time indicate?
