The speed of chemical reactions – class experiment By Julia Shuker Year 10 science – Miss Phillips – Term 2 – 2013 – Julia Shuker Aim The aim of the experiment was to investigate the factors that increased or decreased the speed of chemical reactions between two different chemical reactions. Hypothesis If certain factors‚ such as concentration‚ temperature‚ catalyst and surface area are increased then the reaction rate will also increase due to the particles

Samples of DNA with the target sequence are heated to a reaction temperature of 94-96˚ C that causes DNA melting of the DNA template without denaturing the enzyme by disrupting the hydrogen bonds between complementary bases of the double helical DNA‚ yielding single-stranded DNA molecules(“How Is PCR (polymerase Chain Reaction) Done?”). DNA polymerase does not get degraded in such high temperatures since the DNA polymerase used in this reaction is thermostable as it is isolated from thermophilic bacteria

the concentration of an acid affects the rate of the reaction. I have set up the experiment’s equipment as shown on figure 1. As you can see by figure 1‚ I have used the reaction between sodium thisoulphate solution and hydrochloric acid (HCL) to come up with results that will help me draw conclusions regarding the effects of the concentration of the acid. I decided to use this particular reaction due to the fact that the product of the reaction between sodium thisoulphate and hydrochloric acid (HCL)

were divided into two categories. First the formation of phenylmagnesium bromide‚ and second the reaction of the phenylmagnesium bromide with the carbonyl compound. However‚ before any of this could be done‚ the refluxing apparatus for the Grignard reaction was to be flame dried until no moisture remained inside because any water would cause the reagent to decompose and an alkane to form. The reaction would subsequently fail. Drierite was placed inside a plastic drying tube as a drying agent‚ absorbing

A chemical reaction is a reaction that happens everywhere.It is a process which includes one or many other substances.The substances are converted in to one or more different substances.The substances are one of either chemical elements or compounds.this chemical reaction rearranges the constituent atoms of the reactions to create different substance as products. The chemical reaction of heat on alka seltzer begins when the tablet enters the water.As soon as it does the tablet starts to dissolve

The purpose of this experiment was to perform a wittig reaction‚ the horner-emmons wittig specifically‚ reacting an aldehyde with an ylide to make an alkene. This particular variation of the wittig reaction has several advantages: It gives only the trans product; it uses a much milder base that is easier to handle; and it gives a water soluble byproduct which is easy to separate from the product. The reason that these advantages occur is a change in the structure of the ylide. Instead of a tripheylphosphine

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

Physical and Chemical Reactions Lab #4 Alesa Cannon Objective: To investigate the physical and chemical properties of a pure chemical substance. Procedure: 1. Half-fill one well of a 24-well plate with 6 M HCl and half-fill a second well of the 24-well plate with 6 M NaOH. Suck up these chemicals into their labeled pipets for later use. 2. Perform the following steps on each of the substances to be tested. Complete all tests of one substance and record your observations before proceeding

Chemical reactions proceeding until all the reactants are used is a common misconception. Chemical reactions actually behave differently. The general reaction equation is a A + b B → c C +d D in this equation A and B are the reactants forming the products C and D. However‚ unlike the common thought that the reaction ends when it runs out of A and B it actually does not. In most reactions C and D start to react to form A and B at a certain point as you can see in the equation c C + d D → a A + b

Chemistry 12: Reaction Kinetics Review 1. Looking at the expressions for reaction rate‚ write expressions with which you could express rates for the following reactions. (Hint: look at what happens to reactants and products.) Recall that solid or liquids can lose or gain mass‚ gases can lose or gain volume and aqueous solutions can increase or decrease in concentration. ("a" is done as an example.) a) Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) H2(g) + MgCl2(aq) reaction rate = mass of Mg consumed unit time b) c) or
