Chemistry Chapter 4 The Candle Lab | | ------------------------------------------------- Before You Start – ------------------------------------------------- The scientific process is a systematic way of explaining how events are related to each other in the natural world. Careful observations are the first step in this process. An observation is a fact obtained with the senses. ------------------------------------------------- You might think that a burning candle is pretty simple. But

Lab Report: How Temperature affects Reaction Rate Aim: The Aim is to investigate how temperature can affect Reaction Rate. The experiment will be performed by heating equally sized and weighted lime stones with equal amounts and concentration of Hydrochloric acid at different temperatures. The temperatures will be 35˚C and 40˚C. We will measure the reaction rates by observing gas release of the reaction between lime stones and Hydrochloric acid. The amount of gas release at different

Investigating the Effect of Concentration on the Rate of Enzyme Catalysed Reaction To investigate the effect of concentration on the rate of enzyme catalysed reaction I must know all the factors that affect it in order to investigate in this. Here are all the factors: Temperature- Enzyme like it warm but not too hot. Enzymes are biological catalysts‚ which speed up chemical reactions. They work most efficiently at the optimum point (37°C). If they are below 37°C they will work

Conclusion The purpose of this experiment was to discover the chemical properties that copper has when reacting with other chemicals and how it changes physically during these processes. (Department of Chemistry‚ 2013) This was achieved through many types of reactions‚ such as a redox reaction‚ double displacement‚ decomposition reaction and single displacement depending on the chemical properties in relation to copper of the other substances when it was added with copper. Copper was either in an

first step in) this experiment is to show that similarly to week 1‚ the molarity of an acid or base in solution can be determined (so long as one value’s is known) using titration. In this case though‚ finding the molarity of the acid used in the reaction is then used to determine the percent of that acid in a vinegar solution and compared to the standard value for % acid present in vinegar. The second part of the experiment was to see if by titrating a solution of NaOH and an unnamed mystery acid

Discussion The purpose of this lab is to display the influence of retronasal olfaction when it comes to flavor. Humans have two different types of olfaction. Olfaction is the detection of chemicals in the air. These chemicals which are meant to activate odor receptors‚ are called odorants. Humans have approximately 20 million olfactory receptors‚ which is only a fraction compared to bloodhounds who have 4 billion. The first type of olfaction is called orthonasal olfaction which is inhaling. Here

Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction was discovered by Otto Diels and Kurt Alder and is very useful in the synthesis of polycyclic compounds. The Diels-Alder reaction can be described as: [4+2] cycloaddition- a diene with 4 π electrons + 2π electrons from the dienophile; a pericyclic concerted reaction- meaning the reaction occurs in a single step (no intermediates) and involves a cyclic redistribution of bonding electrons. In order for a Diels-Alder reaction to take place the diene must

acids I shall use are hydrochloric acid‚ sulphuric acid‚ nitric acid and ethanoic acid. What I already know Magnesium reacts with most dilute acids to give a magnesium salt and hydrogen. For example: Mg + 2HCl Mg + H2SO4 MgCl2 + H2 MgSO4 + H2 I discovered from an A’ level text book (A-level Chemistry by Ramsden) that nitric acid doesn’t usually give hydrogen‚ but may do with magnesium if the acid is cold and dilute. The book didn’t say how dilute the acid had to be. Other products may include oxides
