Gun Powder Lab Follow-up Work
In this lab we had to isolate several products and discover ways to filter a certain item out. The nitrate salt was contained in a medium sized plastic re-sealable container. In order to isolate the nitrate salt, we first placed some nitrate salt from the container into a large beaker. We than filled that beaker up with hot or warm water. Than we realized that method was taking too long, so we poured the salt nitrate from the beaker back in the plastic container. Afterwards, we filled that entire plastic container up with hot water, and stirred it so all the nitrate would come out of the soil. We than filtered all that water through a filter system we built, into a couple large beakers.
Once those beakers were full we poured it into a large 2 liter bottle, and repeated the process until there was no more calcium nitrate. We kept repeating the process, and when we thought there was no more product left, we used a special strip that detected......
