Determination of the Rate Constant for a Chemical Reaction Department of Chemistry Abstract This experiment was performed to determine the rate constant k‚ for hydrolysis of tertiary butyl chloride to tertiary butanol. The solvent system for this reaction is 45% isopropyl alcohol and 55% water. The rate of hydrolysis of t-butyl chloride is measured by the decrease in the concentration of this reagent with time. The rate of decomposition of t-butyl chloride must be equal to the rate of formation

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 is a shift to reestablish equilibrium explained by Le Chatelier’s Principle. It states

molecules (or atoms) in a gas are separated by large distances and are in constant‚ random motion. When dealing with gases‚ the Ideal Gas Law equation is the most famous equation used to relate all the factors in dealing and solving the problem. The four factors or variables for gas are: pressure (P)‚ volume (V)‚ number of mole of gas (n)‚ and temperature (T)‚ and the constant in the equation is R‚ known as the gas constant. The Ideal Gas law equation which is pV=nRT is obtained by combining the

Determination of the Solubility Product Constant of Calcium Hydroxide Introduction The equilibrium constant for the solubility equilibrium between an ionic solid and its ions is called solubility constant [1] ‚ Ksp of the solute. For example‚ the solubility product is defined by MxAy(s) ⇋xM(aq)y++ yA(aq)x- (1) Where M is the metal cation‚ A is the anion‚ x and y are the corresponding charges of the ions.
