Nitrate Paper For Mrs. Williams 4th Period NO3- or otherwise known as Nitrate‚ not to be confused with Nitrite‚ is located in period 2 group 15. Nitrate is an element that can not be observed by any of the senses other than sight and touch because it is known to be odorless and tasteless. Nitrate starts within the earths soil but filters into water and plants when it is mixed with rain water that is either cycled back into larger bodies of water or into the plants that take the water from the soil

The results for nitrate were inconclusive‚ there are traces of nitrate in wells 15‚ 20‚ 23‚ and 21 but we couldn’t find the source. We believe that number 15 is the source but there is very little amount of pollutants in the water to make the solution turn black. Wells 15‚ 20‚ 23‚ and 21 when tested for nitrates‚ the iodine changed to a yellowish blackish color. The hypothesis was not supported‚ well number 26 did not test positive for any of the pollutants. The first well tested was well number

students 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"

Iodine: Function of Iodine: Iodine is a mineral found in food. This mineral is needed to make thyroid hormones. The hormones created are used to control the body’s metabolism and lots of other important functions. The thyroid hormones are also used for bone and brain development during pregnancy and infancy. This mineral is important for everyone‚ especially infants and women who are pregnant. The amount of Iodine needed for your daily intake recommended of the mineral depends on your age:

In order to prepare the iodine solution titrant‚ exactly 50 mL of 0.01 M KIO3‚ exactly 20 mL of 10% KI solution‚ and exactly 25 mL of 0.3 M H2SO4 was transferred into a 100 mL volumetric flask using a volumetric pipette. The volumetric flask was then filled to the mark with distilled water. The flask was covered with Parafilm and inverted to mix. The next part of the experiment was to determine the Vitamin C in a solution of known concentration. Observations of the Vitamin C sample and the amount

Investigating the effects of changing concentration: iodine clock reaction. Abstract This is an experiment to show the Iodine Clock Reaction. To create a chemical reaction to see how long it takes for solution to change to a dark blue Color. When changing the concentration of the iodide (K1) and adding distill water to make it up to 5cm³ each time. This is to see if the reaction takes less with less concentration or faster with more concentration added to the peroxodisulphatee. So with the solution

Saint Benedict Saint Benedict leading others in a life of service to God The life of Saint Benedict dramatically shaped Christianity development through the impacts of Benedicts Law on monarchism and my ministry today. Saint Benedict was born in about the year 480 AD. Many of the milestones in Benedict’s life are approximations as is the year of his birth. The only dated event of his life was in 542 AD when he was visited by a king at Monte Cassino. We know that he was an older man when

DIFFERENT RELATIONSHIPS THAT CONCENTRATION AND TEMPERATURE HAVE ON THE RATE OF REACTION Aim To study the effect that temperature and concentration of iodide ion solution have on the rate of iodide ion I⁻ oxidation by peroxodisulphate ion S₂O₈⁻‚ creating an iodine clock reaction. Introduction I decided to choose as the topic for my investigation the rate of reaction for its vital importance in the human body. Indeed I am really interested in Biology and especially physiology and I would like to study
