most effective‚ this aim will be carried out as an iodine clock reaction. The goal of this aim is to find out what catalyst is best to make this reaction occur at the fastest rate. 3. Determine the effects of the presence of ethanol on the rate equation. It is known that ethanol effects hydrogen peroxide and therefore it has an effect on the rate equation. This aim will find out the effect of ethanol by carrying out the iodine clock reaction with and without ethanol present and the results

Introduction Genetics is the science that explains the variation and transmission of inherited characteristics from parents to offspring. The basic laws of heredity became popular to science in 1865‚ with the publication of the works of Gregor Mendel‚ the father of genetics. He observed that by breeding pairs of different varieties of peas‚ the offspring resembled one of the parents. This inspired him to continue his work that resulted to more experiments on plants. Before starting this exercise

Investigating the effects of changing concentration: iodine clock reaction. Abstract This is an experiment to show the Iodine Clock Reaction. To create a chemical reaction to see how long it takes for solution to change to a dark blue Color. When changing the concentration of the iodide (K1) and adding distill water to make it up to 5cm³ each time. This is to see if the reaction takes less with less concentration or faster with more concentration added to the peroxodisulphatee. So with the solution

the opening line‚ the speaker meditates on death and his mortality through the use of clock imagery. The speaker actively engages in counting; “I do count the clock”‚ which emphasises the process of time passing. In the early modern period‚ clocks served as a reminder of the brevity of earthly life‚ and were often inscribed with Latin mottos emphasising the passing of time in relation to death. This use of clock imagery throughout the Renaissance period signals a cultural preoccupation with time
