Abstract The “Chemical Kinetics” experiment was done to investigate the changes in the rate of reaction under the effect of concentration‚ temperature‚ and presence of a catalyst. It was determined that as the concentration of reactants and the temperature increases‚ the rate of the reaction increases as well. Also‚ the reaction was run by the presence of catalyst‚ and the rate of the reaction increased drastically in the presence of it. The order of the reaction with respect to each reactant

industrial catastrophes. It occurred on the night of the last year of 1984 at the Bhopal Union Carbide Corporation (Union Carbide India Limited – UCIL) pesticide plant in Bhopal‚ Madhya Pradesh‚ India. A leak of methyl isocyanides gas and other chemicals from the plant resulted in the exposure of hundreds of thousands of people. It also causes environmental issues such as pollution of soil and water. The gas leak in India was caused by bad maintenance and failure of several safety systems to cut

MIC is one of the deadliest gases produced in the chemical industry and is known to react violently when it comes into contact with water or metal dust. Though the plant was closed down soon‚ the after-effects of the accident left an estimated 25‚000 people dead and around 600‚000 people affected due to

Rates of Chemical Reaction II Pre-Lab Summary: First we will set up the experiment as shown in Figure 2‚ and then we will fill the trough with room temperature water and record the temperature and we will also add the room temperature water to the buret until it is about 10ml from the top. If there are no leaks in the apparatus‚ we will add 10ml of KI to 15ml of distilled water in a 125ml flask. We will swirl the flask so that it achieves room temperature‚ then we will add 5ml of H2O2 and quickly
