perform an experiment known as the "iodine-clock" reaction‚ in which hydrogen peroxide reacts with iodide to form iodine‚ and the iodine subsequently reacts with thiosulfate ion until the thiosulfate has been consumed. At that point‚ the reaction solutions turn blue in the presence of starch. The experiment helps students understand the fundamentals of chemical kinetics --- the speeds at which reactions take place. 1. Activation Energy * Chemical reactions are thermodynamically "favorable"

It was originally hypothesised that the reaction time would decrease with higher concentrations of the reactants‚ potassium iodate and sodium bisulfite as collision theory stated that more molecules present in a given volume meant a greater chance they would collide. Furthermore‚ the time was expected to decrease with higher temperatures as it influenced the reactant particles by raising their kinetic energy. However‚ the data collected from this experiment only partially supported this hypothesis

Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to determine the rate equation for the “Iodine Clock Reaction” experiment. The experiment will consider the equations 〖2I〗^-+S_2 O_8→2〖〖SO〗_4〗^(2-)+I_2 and I_2+2〖S_2 O_3〗^(2-)→2I^-+S_4 O_6 in order to determine the rate law of Rate=k[〖〖S_2 O_8〗^(2-)]〗^a 〖[I^-]〗^b by using the experimental data to calculate the values of exponents a and b as well as the rate constant k. Experimental Supplies Needed: 250 mL Erlenmeyer flask‚ 100 mL beaker‚ graduated

Lab #3: Method of Initial Rates: Iodine Clock Introduction The detailed system of steps in a reaction is called the reaction mechanism‚ and it is one of the principal aims of chemical kinetics to obtain information to aid in the elucidation of these mechanisms in order to better understand chemical processes. Reactions usually occur in a stepwise manner with each step proceeding at a different speed. If the rate of reaction is slow enough to measure‚ this is indicative of a step much slower

EFFECT OF CONCENTRATION ON REACTION RATE The aim of this experiment is to find the effect of varying the concentration of iodide ions on the rate of reaction between hydrogen peroxide and an acidified solution of potassium iodide: H2O2(aq) + 2H+(aq) + 2I⁻ → 2H2O(l) + I2(aq) The course of this reaction can be followed by carrying it out in the presence of small quantities of starch and sodium thiosulfate solutions. As the iodine molecules are produced they immediately react with the thiosulfate

This experiment was a Landolt Iodine clock reaction - Oxidation of Bisulphite by Iodate. It involved conducting three measured experiments. The first variable tested was concencentration. This was tested by conducting two experiments‚ each varying the concentration of either the NaHSO3 or KIO3. The varying of NaHSO3 involved using 0.1 Molar of KIO3 against decreasing concentrations of NaHSO3 (0.25 M‚ 0.125 M‚ 0.0625 M and 0.03125 M). When decreasing the concentration of KIO3‚ 0.25 M of NaHSO3 was

Biology coursework How does the temperature affect the rate of reaction? Introduction For our experiments‚ I was investigating what affects the rate of reaction. We used Hydrogen peroxide to test the rate of reaction‚ with the temperature of this being our variable that we changed. Hydrogen peroxide is a clear‚ colourless liquid which has various amounts of uses within the laboratory‚ industrial purposes and even in our households. It is mainly used for cleaning products and hair dye but is
