Kinetics of the Decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide Lab Introduction: In this week’s lab experiment‚ the rate of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide forming oxygen gas will be observed and studied. Since the rate of a chemical reaction is dependent on two things; the concentrations of the reactants and the temperature at which the process is performed‚ the rate can be measured at which a reactant disappears or at which a product appears. When measuring the rate‚ the rate law will be applied. The

Conclusion I predicted that if the decolorization of DPIP is caused by photosynthesis and not cell respiration and spinach extract containing chloroplasts and mitochondria is incubated with DPIP‚ then the rate of DPIP decolorization should be higher if in bright light verses dark light because DPIP is reduced by photosynthesis and not by the mitochondria or any other cellular function. If DPIP was only decolorized by chloroplasts‚ then the percent transmittance of chloroplast suspensions would be

Title Experiment 17 Reaction Kinetics- Determination of the Activation Energy of the Reaction Between Oxalic Acid and Potassium Permanganate. Objective To determine the activation energy of the reaction between oxalic acid and potassium permanganate. Theory and Background Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy that is required to activate atoms or molecules to a condition in which they can undergo chemical transformation or physical transport. In terms of the transition-state

Kinetics of Hydrogen Peroxide February 22‚ 2007 Chem. 1130 TA: Ms. Babcock Room 1830 Chemistry Annex PURPOSE OF THE EXPERIMENT Kinetics of Hydrogen Peroxide The major purpose of this experiment is to determine the rate law constant for the reaction of hydrogen peroxide and potassium iodide. In this experiment‚ the goal will be to try to measure the rate law constant at low acidity‚ since at low acidity‚ anything less than 1.0 x 10-3M‚ the effect of the hydrogen ion is negligible. To calculate

substrate fits the shape of the active site‚ the enzyme will alters its shape so the active site embraces the substrate and maintains a firm grip‚ known as induced fit. This allows for great variations of enzymes. Abstract In this experiment‚ my lab partners and I tested how time effects a catalase reaction. The amount of hydrogen peroxide was recorded after the reaction for the certain time given has taken place. We used sulfuric acid to stop the reaction with the catalase from occurring. This

For Lab 1‚ my partner and I will be demonstrating the law in which connects the period of the pendulum‚ expressed as T‚ to the length of the string‚ expressed a L. The system the lab will be based on will include a pendulum with a weight of W suspended at a fixed point by the string with a variable length of L and an angle theta to be measured using a protractor. The variable T will be measured as the period of time needed for the weight of the pendulum to swing back and forth once. For part 1 of

For this purpose‚ we chose to investigate the reaction of solid copper metal‚ in the form of a wire‚ with aqueous silver nitrate. Before we began the lab‚ we hypothesized that when silver nitrate‚ AgNO3‚ reacts with copper‚ Cu‚ the
