Rachel Smith Design Lab: Kinetics Lab Introduction: ! Background Information- Effervescent tablets reduce stomach acid and help treat upset stomachs. The familiar fizzing you hear when you drop an Alka-Seltzer tablet into a glass of water is the result of a chemical reaction. After dropping the tablet into the water‚ the reaction causes the solid tablet to become dissolved and releases tiny bubbles of carbon dioxide. This reduces the time it takes for the medicine to work as it does not need to dissolve

In this lab‚ the pH of flat sprite and a fresh sprite are compared two ways: one way was to record the pH directly with a digital pH probe and the other was to calculate the concentration through titration. Because the reaction is a neutralization reaction‚ the concentration of can be calculated if the concentration of is known. At the end of the titration‚ the moles of will equal the moles of and the pH is expected to be greater than 7 because the found in sprite is weak and is a strong

was soluble in water as well‚ but it had a very low melting point. All the substances except for sodium carbonate did not pass the requirements‚ and therefore sodium carbonate is the best possible substance. In order to prove this‚ I conducted a lab to determine the solubility‚ conductivity‚ and melting point of each substance. First‚ I made sure to obtain a Bunsen burner‚ evaporating dish‚ ethanol‚ the four substances‚ distilled water‚ conductivity probe‚ wash bottles‚ test tubes‚ and a beaker

AP Chemistry Kinetics Lab Abstract: The purpose of this lab is to learn how to write law expressions‚ determine orders by graphs‚ and calculate rate constants. By determining the number of drops of sodium hypochlorite necessary to make a diluted food dye change to colorless in less than three minutes helps calculate the absorbance which can then be analyzed to find the pseudo rate constant and eventually leading to the rate constant and the rate law. The results show that the m and n are both 1st

Title: Preparation and isolation of an Ester Aim: To make an ester and purify it Background Theory: Esters are derived from carboxylic acids and alcohols with the presence of a catalyst. A carboxylic acid contains the -COOH group‚ and in an ester the hydrogen in this group is replaced by a hydrocarbon group of some kind. Sulfuric acid (H2SO4)is used as a catalyst for this reaction in order to accelerate the rate at which the product is formed. The general formula of an ester is RCOOR’ in

The string length should be such that‚ when one hanger hits the floor‚ the upper part of the other hanger is near the pulley‚ without touching the pulley. (You may find that the lab assistant has already set up the apparatus as described here. If so‚ double check the setup.) 2. Place equal masses of approximately 1000 g on each weight hanger. These masses should include four 5 g masses at the top of the left hanger. Hold back
