You are diluting an acid for use in the lab. To make the dilution you must add exactly 10.0 mL of acid to 90 mL of water. What tool should you use to measure the acid?
graduated cylinder
If a chemical is spilled on the floor of a lab what is the safest way to determine if it is an acid?
Use litmus paper
What does dilute acid mean?
A diluted acid is a concentrated acid that has been diluted by water so it is not as concentrated. Sometimes the final dilution is expressed as a percentage of the original acid. More often we use molarity. In common lab use the dilute acids are 2M.
What is the difference between mineral acids and strong acids?
The main difference is that a mineral acid (for instance, sulfuric acid) will dissociate completely in solution, while an organic acid (for instance, acetic acid) will dissociate only partially. Specifically: When you put sulfuric acid (H2SO4) into water, all of the molecules of acid will dissociate into two protons (H+) and sulfate anions (SO4=). There will be no intact molecules of H2SO4 in solution. When you put acetic acid (CH3COOH) into water, only some of the molecules dissociate into proton (H+) and acetate anions (CH3COO-). Some of the acetic acid molecules remain intact in solution.
What acid do you use for the acid test?
what acid do you use to test gold

Will phosphoric acid explode with air contact?
No - I use it all the time in my lab and it is often exposed to air.
How do you use the word toxicity in a sentence?
The toxic barrels of hydrochloric acid were being dumped in the science lab.
How do you use lab coats?
Basically for safety. If you spill acid on a lab coat, or set it on fire (it can be done!) it is much easier to remove very quickly then it is to remove a t-shirt.

How a mineral breaks apart when a tool such as a hammer is used to break it a mineral that exhibits this will break into smooth pieces?
use a raw camera to carefully break pieces off the mineral is this the type of chemical that makes up the mineral or the strength of the connection between particle in the mineral
A test for this mineral is you pour acid on it what mineral is this?
Pouring hydrochloric acid, or HCL, over a mineral will cause carbonate minerals to effervesce. This application is called the "acid test," it simply examines the mineral or rocks reaction to acid. Calcite is the most commonly found carbonate mineral and it will fizz during the acid test. Dolomite is another carbonate mineral; however, it will only fizz if it is first powdered. Experiments also show that undiluted vinegar can cause effervescing, but it produces less vivacious results. Some sedimentary rocks that fizz include chalk, coquina, oolic limestone, fossilferous limestone, and micrite. The metamorphic rock marble also fizzes.
What would you use wulfenite for?
