Chemistry Lab Report (Design) Factors affecting Rates of a Reaction (Kinetics) KINETICS DESIGN LAB Research Question: Does the concentration of Potassium Iodide (KI) affect the rate of its reaction with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) (of a fixed concentration)? Introduction: There are several factors that affect the rate of a reaction. Some of them being Pressure (if the reactants are Gases)‚ Temperature‚ Presence of a Catalyst‚ Surface Area of the reactant‚ and Concentration. According to

Chemistry has sufficiently grown over time since it was first conducted by alchemists in the 17th century. It broke its mystical ties with alchemy‚ and took a turn to scientific investigation when a book called The Sceptical Chymist was written. Hundreds of scientists like Robert Boyle‚ Marie Curie‚ Joseph Achille Le Bel‚ and many others made important discoveries that contributed to chemistry. Joseph Achille Le Bel was a french chemist born on January 21‚ 1847 and grew up in Pechelbronn‚ France

Paragraph 1 In this paragraph‚ the structural and chemistry differences between quartz‚ α-FePO4 and β-FePO4 will be discussed. Quartz do have some similarities with the other 2 components. The structure of quartz‚ similarly depends on the temperature of the environment. Quartz can exist as an alpha or beta form. This is one similarity between the 3. The difference between α-FePO4 and β-FePO4‚ is that α-FePO4 is the most common form of existence for FePO4 and is structurally similar to the alpha

Objectives The main objective of this experiment is to differentiate between a physical change and a chemical change. A physical change includes a change in the material without affecting its composition‚ such as the physical state change. However‚ a chemical change includes the change in the composition of the substance. The change in color‚ formation of a gas or a solid product‚ and the production of energy are the evidences of a chemical reaction‚ thus‚ of a chemical change. Materials

First Ionisation energy is the measure of energy needed to remove a mole of electrons from a mole of gaseous atoms to form a mole of positively charged gaseous ions‚ also known as a cation. The general trend is that as the atomic number increases between elements Lithium to Neon the level of the first ionisation energy increases‚ as there is a stronger nuclear attraction. [Braid‚ K. et al. (2015)]. The stronger nuclear attraction along the period is caused by the number of protons increasing. When

Death of a Salesman What questions has the play raised so far? Does the audience have any answers? From reading three quarters of ‘Death of a salesman’ many questions have surfaced from the play. I think that the main question that has been raised so far from the play is the American Dream. The American Dream is the dream people have for themselves and their family; good job‚ good home‚ good life and to be treated fairly. In Willy loman case anyone who worked hard and was “well liked” in business

Our objective for the Sherlock Holmes Experiment was to illustrate that some chemicals can be identified or differentiated by simple chemical tests‚ such as solubility‚ pH‚ or color tests. In our group we had to test come common powders such as Alka-Seltzer‚ baking soda‚ flour‚ Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)‚ and salt. Other chemicals that were used to do this experiment were vinegar‚ and Iodine 2 Solution. The equipment used to do this experiment was red litmus paper‚ and 5 test tubes per group.
