Spectrophotometric Methods: The Determination of Iron The goal of this laboratory experiment was the quantitative spectrophotometric determination of Fe (II) by using a calibration plot‚ which obeyed the Beer-Lambert Law. In order to determine the Fe (II) concentration‚ a series of solutions of known concentrations were made. The solutions were analyzed by the Ocean Optics spectrophotometer in order to determine their absorbance. The concentration of the unknown Fe (II) was determined by the “eye-ball”

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

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

Chemical Equilibrium: Finding equilibrium constant‚ Kc 1 Abstract Chemical reactions are accompanied with formation of products. A reaction can be reversible or forward according to the rate of formation of product. However‚ they do not reach completion and the mixture remains in equilibrium. This theory help us the study the existence of equilibrium constant‚ Kc. This constant is temperature dependent‚ and it must be calculated at given temperature. This equilibrium constant is used

The Equilibrium Constant of an Ester Hydrolysis Reaction Jesus Flores March 30th‚ 2015 Abstract: This experiment was conducted in order to discover the Kc‚ equilibrium constant‚ of a hydrolysis reaction of an unknown ester #2‚ unknown acid‚ and alcohol #2 products. The first week consisted of creating the reaction mixtures in bottles‚ next was preparing a NaOH solution while neutralizing with KHP. The final week consisted of titrating the bottles with the NaOH solution prepared previously

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

General Chemistry II Determining of the equilibrium constant for the formation of FeSCN2+ Introduction The objective of this experiment was to determine the equilibrium concentration and then determine Kc. A dilution calculation was formed to determine the concentration of SCN- and Fe(SCN)2+. Each cuvette was filled to the same volume and can be seen in table 1. Then the absorbances were recorded from each cuvette and can be seen in table 1. A Beer’s law plot was made from the data that was recorded

Spectrophotometric determination of Ascorbic acid Concentration in an Unknown Solution Introduction: The naturally occurring organic compound with antioxidant properties is Ascorbic acid shortly referred as (AA). Normally the color of Ascorbic acid is white‚ but in some cases of impure samples it appears yellow in color. Ascorbic acid is solid in state. In water it dissolves well to give mildly acidic solutions. Ascorbic acid is one form ("vitamer") of vitamin C [1]. So‚ Ascorbic Acid (AA)

reaction rate or the oxidation-reduction between oxalic acid and potassium permanganate‚ KmnO4 is measured by recording the time elapsed for the purple colour of the permanganate ion to disappear in the reaction.As the temperature increases‚ the rate constant also increases and the rate of reaction increases as well. Addition of a catalyst reduced the height of the energy barrier and thus increases the rate of reaction. When the temperature is increased by 10oC ‚the reaction Factor is= 1.55*10^-2 which
