The Equilibrium Constant of an Ester Hydrolysis Reaction Jesus Flores March 30th‚ 2015 Abstract: This experiment was conducted in order to discover the Kc‚ equilibrium constant‚ of a hydrolysis reaction of an unknown ester #2‚ unknown acid‚ and alcohol #2 products. The first week consisted of creating the reaction mixtures in bottles‚ next was preparing a NaOH solution while neutralizing with KHP. The final week consisted of titrating the bottles with the NaOH solution prepared previously

Polymerase chain reaction The Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a biochemical technology in molecular biology to amplify a single or a few copies of a piece of DNA across several orders of magnitude‚ generating thousands to millions of copies of a particular DNA sequence. Developed in 1983 by Kary Mullis‚ PCR is now a common and often indispensable technique used in medical and biological research labs for a variety of applications. These include DNA cloning for sequencing‚ DNA-based phylogeny

of anhydrous copper sulfate (CuSO4) is white because it reflects lights in visible region of spectrum. Once water is added‚ it changes to blue as the structure of the copper transitional compound becomes Cu(H2O)4 SO4 - H2O where four water molecules are bound to the copper ion and the fifth is a water of crystallization. This compound absorbs light of wavelengths from 600 to 800nm (yellow-to-red region) light and blue light is transmitted. When ammonia is added to a solution of copper(II) cation‚

Ashley Silva Lab 7: Three Stooges in Chemical Reactions Objective: The purpose of this lab is to experimentally determine the equilibrium constant‚ Kc ‚ for the following chemical reaction: Fe3+ (aq) + SCN-(aq) ↔FeSCN2+(aq) Background Information: A system is at equilibrium when the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the reverse reaction. There is no change in concentration for the reactants or products at chemical equilibrium. When the system is disturbed there

March 18‚ 2012 Title: Types of Chemical Reactions Data: Reaction Observations Evidence #1 It turned a reddish brown and the liquid went clear. The color change proved it was a chemical change. #2 The reaction turned yellow and it separated and created a fog. The solid formed precipitation and had a color change during the reaction proving it to be a chemical change. #3 There was green smoke and the crystals turned black. The green liquid turned dark green and continued to sizzle with

investigating how the rate of reaction differs when we change the concentration of Hydrochloric Acid whilst reacting with Magnesium. The rate of reaction is explained by the Collision Theory. This theory explains how various factors affect the reaction rates and how chemical reactions occur. The 4 factors of the Collision Theory are: • Temperature • Concentration • Surface area • Catalyst I am investigating how different concentrations of acids affect the rate of reaction. However I must control

will increase the speed of reaction as the greater the surface of the solid reactants‚ the more particles are required to expose and ‘cover’ the capacity of the solid. Increased surface area results in an increased chance of collisions between reactant particles. Since the collisions become more frequent and abundant‚ the rate of reaction increases. Aim The aim of the experiment is to see if a greater surface area of a dissolvable tablet creates a faster or slower reaction Independent Variable
