AI Thread Summary
For a metal and acid reaction lab, essential materials include lab goggles for safety, a metal sample, and an acid. The specific metal and acid used may vary based on the lab's educational level and objectives. It's important to clarify the lab's purpose and the materials available, as these factors significantly influence the setup and requirements for the experiment.

a chemistry lab. What materials do I need if I'm going to be doing a metal + acid (rate of reaction) lab?
 
Chemistry news on Phys.org
That depends on a lot of different things. What level chemistry are you taking? What's the more specific purpose of the lab? What materials do you know will be provided for you?

Be a little more specific, otherwise the only thing I can tell you for sure is lab goggles.
 
Probably having a metal and an acid won't hurt as well :devil:
 
It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...
I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
