- The control here was that we used the same amount of each liquid, 10mL, to ensure that the experiment was giving us a reasonable comparison.…
The Expirement that the chemist will be conducting includes the following materials: hot water, room tepmerature water, cold water, and regular Alka Seltzer tablets. Research on Alka Seltzer in previous expirements shows that it dissolves faster in hotter temperatures of water. It also shows in previous expirements that Alka Seltzer dissolves slower in colder temperatures of water rather than hotter temoeratures. Alka Seltzer is an antacid that contains aspirin. It is made in tablets that dissolve in water to give a fizzy reaction.…
Collective class data are exhibited in Table 1, and Figure 1 renders the class findings in a plot. As shown in Figure 1, the percent by mass of Sodium Bicarbonate in the Alka-Seltzer tablet primarily increased along with the volume of vinegar used then began to equalize after 15 mL of vinegar was used. In the portion of the graph prior to the trial using 15 mL of vinegar, the acid was the limiting reactant. Initially as additional quantities of vinegar were added, there was more acid available to react with the NaCO3; which is a standard and constant in every tablet of Alka-Seltzer. This resulted in greater production of CO2, thus the percent by mass of Sodium Bicarbonate increased with an…
In this experiment, we will develop five solutions that will be tested to figure which one of these solutions will dissolve an Alka seltzer tablet the fastest. The following essentials for this experiment will include Alka seltzer tablets that will be split in half. We will also use one solid tablet for a different result. This experiment will include water in different temperatures and additional ingredients such as ice, salt and vinegar that will be included to see which solution works more effectively. The Hypothesis: Hot boiling water will dissolve the Alka Seltzer tablet the fastest.…
During this experiment, acids of different concentration are utilized, and the different reaction rates calculated. When the reactant’s concentration increases, there are more atoms per space for a collision to occur. A prediction for the effect of concentration on reaction rate would be that the higher the concentration of the reaction, the faster the reaction time. As the temperature of the reaction rate increases, the molecules will move faster, also resulting in more collisions and perhaps a faster reaction rate.…
First, the unknown sample from experiment 2 was boiled with just enough water dissolve it completely. After all of…
3. What was your prediction about the results of each factor tested in your two lab procedures? Explain your predictions based on your knowledge of the dissolving process, collision theory, and reaction rates. My predictions of the results on this lab were right. I figured that if the Alka-Seltzer were crushed up it would make it more easier to dissolve since they were in little pieces instead of one big tablet.…
The purpose of this experiment was the reaction rate, and how surface area affected the reaction rate between water and alka seltzer tablets. The half crushed tablet had more particles in the tablet causing more surface area to dissolve in the water. The more surface area in the tablet, the more efficient it is in reacting in with water. Overall in my experiment, it was successful and it was a valid experiment. This experiment had taught me and to understand that the effect…
Chemical Kinetics, described as the study of rate of chemical processes, varies on many factors to determine the time needed for a reaction to complete. The rate of reaction of a chemical reaction is important, as reactions are of little use if the time period needed for the reaction to occur is too lengthy. Many factors influence the rate of a chemical reaction, such as temperature, concentration and surface area. The order of the reaction is based on the concentration of the reactants, and is what this lab focuses on.…
Purpose/Objective: The purpose/objective of this lab was to see if environmental conditions changed the speed of the reaction. The catalyst being used was the spark (the match). The Chemical reaction being tested was how fast the hydrogen peroxide could turn into water and oxygen. The theory that was being tested was; Enzymes speed up reactions. The facts that I wanted to determine were matches making the chemical reaction happen quicker or not.…
A TLC chamber was then assembled by using a beaker slightly filled with solvent, 3:6:1 Toluene: EF2O: MeOH. Plates were then spotted along the line at the bottom, using capillary tubes, each with a sample of acetaminophen, acetylsalicylic acid, and caffeine. Then each plate was individually spotted with a different pill sample that was dissolved in the acetone. These plates were then placed in TLC chambers and allowed the solvent to travel up the plate. Once close to the top, the plate was taken out of the chamber and a line was drawn where the solvent stopped.…
After testing my hypothesis, my results were proven right. When comparing how the Alka-Seltzer tablet dissolved in the hot temperature water and how it dissolved in the cold temperature water. It showed that the hotter the temperature of the H2O was the faster the Alka-Seltzer tablet dissolved.…
As stated previously the purpose of this experiment was primarily based on about chemical changes. Many chemical changes are viewed through a screen, or read from a book. In this experiment, chemical changes are viewed directly from the eyes of the scientist. The procedure first begins by gathering all needed materials. Next, laying the first powder on four wells, followed by the next powders, each powder was placed on four wells. The liquids were then placed on each powder using the four droppers. Three drops of each liquids were placed on each powder. After observing the chemical reactions, and recording data the powders were then identified.…
For this assignment, you will be designing a lab to investigate factors that affect the rate of a reaction. You are not required to conduct the experiment, but it may be beneficial to do so if you can acquire the materials needed for your design.…
An Alka-Seltzer tablet was accurately weighed and recorded using a weighing boat and analytical balance. A fragmented piece between 0.2100g and 0.2800g was also weighed and recorded. 500mL of water was placed in a 600mL beaker. 80mL of water was then mixed with 20mL of 6M HCl in a 150mL beaker to create 1.2M HCl. A 1.5g piece of Alka-Seltzer tablet was then added to the HCl solution. After complete evolution of CO2, gravity filtration was used to catch all of the starch produced from the reaction. The buret was filled with the filtrated solution and the glass tube end of a rubber tube was inserted about 2 inches into the mouth of the buret. While keeping a finger over the buret mouth, the entire buret was quickly inverted and the tubing and mouth completely submerged into the water in the 600mL beaker. The buret was then clamped into place while double checking the buret mouth was under the water level and the rubber tubing was not pinched. The stopcock was then opened extremely slowly until the water level in the buret dropped close to the 50.00mL mark. This level was then recorded.…
