CHEMISTRY - Help - It's Urgent

[Scienceaddict101]

Hi , in another form about Le Chantelier's principle , one of the experts replied by telling the person who asked, about an experiment that required two bulbs connected by a tube. When you fill half of the bulbs with ammonia solution and then warm one of the bulbs with your hand it shoots to the other bulb. I was just wondering is ammonia , two bulbs and a tube to connect them is all that is required? Does the solution go to the other bulb so the phenomenon of equilibrium happens? Overall I just need a little more detailed explanation of the experiment and why it happens please. https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... =29&t=6420

Thank you.

The whole purpose of doing Scientific investigations is to figure things out for yourself!

My interpretation of the description of the experiment you are referring to is: Warm a blub (at one end of a two bulb aparatus with tubing in between) that has an amonia and water solution with the heat from your hand and you observe what happens.

What happens by definition when you boil a liquid? The answer to most definition questions can be found in a good dictionary. What is condensation? Another definition question. Does the state of some of the material change between liquid state and gas states in boil and condensation processes? What is the boiling point of the amonia and water solution compared to nominal human body skin temperature? You can look these up online. What happens during evaporation? Another definition question. What effect does temperature have on evaporation? You can look this up online. What effect does temperature have on a gas? You can look this up online.

Why don't you figure out the answers to the above questions and come back with a hypothesis?

You are right.. I should figure it out myself. I was kind of confused about the experiment itself. Thanks!
