The reaction rate of a chemical reaction is determined as the change in the concentration of a reactant or product over the change in time. [1] The rate of a reaction is determined by experiment. Many factors influence the rate of a reaction: the nature of the reaction‚ concentration‚ pressure‚ temperature‚ and surface area‚ presence of catalyst and intensity of light. [2] For a chemical reaction‚ the rate law or rate equation is a mathematical expressed equation that links the reaction rate with

relationship between exchange rates‚ interest rates • In this lecture we will learn how exchange rates accommodate equilibrium in financial markets. For this purpose we examine the relationship between interest rates and exchange rates. Interest rates are the return to holding interest-bearing financial assets. In the previous lecture we have pointed out that as being a financial asset exchange rates tend to adjust more quickly to new information that goods prices. Like exchange rates‚ interest rates are also

Experiment Report for: ‘the affect of Caffeine on Daphnia’s heartbeat’ Introduction: Aim: The aim of this experiment is to understand the affect of the drug Caffeine on the rate of a Daphnia’s heartbeat. This is to understand the affect of caffeine on a human’s heart rate and the use of daphnia keeps the experiment fair and safe. Background Research: Daphnia – Daphnia (water fleas) are grouped as crustaceans under the arthropod group of Kingdom Anamalia. They have an open circulatory

Enzyme Reaction Rates Under Different Conditions Introduction In this lab you will observe how the rate of a reaction is changed as certain factors are changed. You will observe how changing factors like temperature‚ pH‚ substrate concentration‚ and enzyme concentration changes the rate of an enzymatic reaction. In this experiment you will act as an enzyme by breaking toothpicks witch act as substrates. After observing the results of this experiment you will be able to determine what causes the

Factors Influencing Rate of Reaction Aim To investigate several effects believed to influence rate of reaction‚ concentration of a substance and temperature‚ and observe the effects. Hypothesis Concentration and temperature will both increase the rate of reaction in accordance with collision theory. Introduction The reaction rate or rate of reaction for a reactant or product in any given reaction can be defined as the speed with which a reaction occurs. For example‚ the oxidation of iron

Sodium‚ one of many elements in the periodic table is being used in everyday life‚ it is also an essential element within your body. It is just another element‚ but one of the differences is that this element is something that most people consume every day. Sodium has played an important role in everyday life because of its uses in medicine‚ industry‚ and agriculture(Shriver). Sodium was discovered in 1807 by a man named Sir Humphrey Davy. He was well known for his discoveries of most alkali metals

These materials are widely used to treat raw water supplies that contain dissolved salts. Today‚ the most commonly used material is an ion exchange resin. Resins are plastic beads to which a favorable

The purpose of this experiment is to separate a solution of an acidic and organic compound and purify its respective acidic product through the techniques of an acid base extraction‚ recrystallization‚ and use of Melt Temp (melting point range). The reaction of an unknown acid (3-chlorobenzoic acid) with diethyl and sodium hydroxide was observed‚ and the solution naturally separated into an aqueous and organic solution. The mixture of acid and organic solution was created and then separated through
