Ladeira Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 We've made an experiment which can be described like this: In an Erlenmeyer was put around 1.0 gram of Magnesium (Mg) and added 15.0 mL of a solution 3 mol/L of Sulfuric Acid (H2SO4). Mg + H2SO4 --> MgSO4 + H2 Then, was added Ethilic Alcohol. What happens? Is there some phenomenon? The theoric note notices that it's supposed to occur something. But it doesn't notices what.

Martin Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 on the web, or on Google, you may find more if you use the spelling ethylic alcohol other synonyms are ethyl alcohol and ethanol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladeira Posted May 24, 2008 Author Share Posted May 24, 2008 I understand... But I was just trying to discover what happens. I've heard it's something about cristalization by solvent change. But I couldn't understand it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Cuthber Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 You might want to look up the solubillity of MgSO4 in water and in alcohol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladeira Posted May 25, 2008 Author Share Posted May 25, 2008 I did. And I haven't found something interesting, and can't understand what happens yet. Can someone help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
