Kinetics of an SN1 reaction: the effect of solvent on rate Object The purpose of this experiment is to determine the rate of hydrolysis in acetone/water (50/50 v/v and 60/40 v/v). Background and Theory An SN1 reaction of tert-butyl chloride takes place in two steps. First‚ the Alkyl Halide will leave the molecule. In this step the bond is breaking‚ which takes a longer amount of time‚ so it will determine the rate of the reaction. As a result‚ it forms a tertiary carbocation‚ since this

Abstract This experiment is to study the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction between potassium permanganate with oxalic acid. We used 2cm3 of 0.02M potassium permanganate and 4cm3 of 1M sulphuric acid into a test tube. In another test tube‚ we placed 2cm3 of oxalic acid. We placed the test tubes in a water bath at 40‚ 45‚ 50‚ 55 and 60oC respectively. When the solutions have attained these temperatures pour the oxalic acid into the acidified permanganate solution and recorded the time

Properties and Reactions of Hydrocarbons Abstract Introduction Hydrocarbons are organic materials that contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms‚ these molecules can be saturated or unsaturated and acyclic‚ cyclic‚ or aromatic. In this experiment we used a variety of methods to examine the physical and chemical properties of hydrocarbons. The first experiment we tested a variety of solvents to see if they dissolved our alkane (Decalin). One would expect that non-polar solvents will dissolve

Physics 1003 Experiment Report In this experiment‚ the technician began with the demonstration of solar energy. Solar energy is the conversion of light energy to electrical energy by using solar panels. Solar panels are devices that contained solar module which use light energy from light to generate electricity through the photovoltaic effect. And photovoltaic modules generate electricity from a frequency of light. From my observation of the experiment‚ I found that the panel is black in

“MOTIVATION” Filipino people are religious human being. We usually seek for guidance from our Lord in every decision we will made so in relation to that our teacher decided to have a speaker that can motivate us spiritually‚ emotionally and to enlighten us by a word of god. Fr. Joel Eslabra was the 1st invited speaker. He is a priest who is willing to share the word of God and also can give us inspiration. Fr. Joel starts his discussion with an inspirational lecture about the word of god presented

to brown indicated that the reaction began and this is why an iodine crystal was placed in the solution. The reaction started to boil due to its own reflux so heat didn’t need to be applied. Next the anhydrous ether solution was added very slowly in a dropwise manner with a needle through the septum cap on the condenser. This was added through the septum because it created an environment that made it difficult for water to get through. Another setup for this experiment
