Chemical reactions are a part of everyday lives. Whether it is the burning of propane at a kitchen stove‚ or washing detergent reacting with dirt stains‚ chemical reactions are useful tools that have widespread applications. With so many reactions assisting our everyday activities‚ it is important that ways to optimise reaction rates are investigated. “Reaction rate‚ the speed at which a chemical reaction proceeds… may be defined in terms of the amounts of the reactants consumed or products formed

Soren Chemical Case Study Position Statement The main problem‚ as depicted within the case study‚ is the significantly low sales of Soren Chemical’s new product‚ Coracle. Since the sales of the new product were way below what Jen Moritz had anticipated‚ it is apparent that the new product had registered poor performance in the market. The company needs to employ effective market strategies through which it would increase the number of Coracle units‚ which would sold in the subsequent financial

Year 11 Module 1 – The Chemical Earth The Earth is made up of a large number of different substances: elements‚ compounds & mixtures We can classify elements & compounds as pure substances. These are always HOMOGENEOUS. Mixtures are not pure substances and can be either homogeneous or HETEROGENEOUS. Pure substances have a fixed composition eg copper metal‚ sulfur‚ carbon dioxide (CO2)‚ methane (CH4). Mixtures have variable composition and can also be separated into its components relatively

effect of temperature on reaction rate constant and also to study the effect of the reaction rate constant in a batch stirred tank reactor its important in chemical industry because it is used to determine the effect of temperature on reaction rate constant; it is also used in chemical and process industry for solids dissolution‚ product mixing‚ chemical reaction‚ batch distillation‚ crystallization‚ and polymerization. It is also used in the laboratories in obtaining design‚ interpretation of rate of

The history of the periodic table reflects over a century of growth in the understanding of chemical properties‚ and culminates with the publication of the first actual periodic table by Dmitri Mendeleev in 1869.[1] While Mendeleev built upon earlier discoveries by such scientists as Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier and Stanislao Cannizzaro‚ the Russian scientist is generally given sole credit for development of the actualperiodic table itself. The table itself is a visual representation of the periodic

simple soluble substances. There are two types of digestion – chemical digestion and mechanical digestion. Mechanical digestion involves breaking up large pieces of food into smaller pieces. This provides a large surface area for the action of enzymes on food. There is no change to the chemical composition of food during mechanical digestion. Mechanical digestion occurs in the mouth (mastication) and in the stomach (churning). Chemical digestion involves the action of enzymes. Large insoluble food
