Clock reactions If you choose a project that explores the kinetics of a chemical reaction you will need a way of measuring the rate of the reaction. Clock reactions provide an interesting way of doing this for some systems. In a typical reaction the first part of a graph showing the concentration of product against time is approximately a straight line (see Figure 1). If you choose any value of concentration that lies on this straight line (say c1) the initial rate of reaction can be found

Skills Determining the reactivity of various metals Testing Relative Oxidizing and Reducing Strengths of Metal Atoms and Ions By observing whether reactions occur between solid metals and metal ions in solution‚ you can determine the order of oxidizing and reducing agents according to strength. Question How can the presence or absence of a reaction provide information about the relative strength of oxidizing and reducing agents? Safety Precautions • Wear goggles‚ gloves‚ and an apron

The Michael addition is a reaction named after Arthur Michael. Discovered in 1887‚ this is a carbon-carbon bond making reaction. The result of the Michael addition is a 1‚4 addition of a nucleophile to an alpha‚ beta-unsaturated carbonyl carbon compound. A 1‚4 addition is also commonly referred to as a conjugated addition. Another result of this reaction is a 1‚2 addition of a nucleophile. Some of the common attacking nucleophiles used in this reaction are enolates. Enolates‚ a negatively charged

of the hydrochloric acid and the rate of a reaction. To find this out I will react different concentration of hydrochloric acid and magnesium‚ from there I will monitor the gas (hydrogen) produced and analyse the results. Prediction: I predict the higher the molarity of the hydrochloric acid the faster the rate of reaction therefore the quicker the gas will be produced in the specific time interval. Overview of the experiment: In this reaction two substances will be present in the solution

Publication No. 91860 Rate of Reaction of Sodium Thiosulfate and Hydrochloric Acid Rate Laws Introduction The purpose of this demonstration is to investigate the effect of sodium thiosulfate concentration on the rate of reaction of sodium thiosulfate with hydrochloric acid. The reaction‚ which produces solid sulfur‚ will be followed by measuring the time needed for the reaction mixture to become opaque. The results will be analyzed graphically to determine the order of reaction— the mathematical relationship

temperature on reactions between the enzyme catalase found in animal tissue with the substrate H2O2. The hypothesis stated that an increase in the temperature of the substrate would create a subsequent increase in the rate of reaction between the enzyme and the substrate. This hypothesis was tested by immersing 1cm cubes of animal tissue (sheep liver) which contained the enzyme catalase into the substrate (H2O2 ) mixed with detergent which foamed showing a visual display of the reaction. After 10 seconds

Energy‚ often in the state of heat‚ is involved in chemical reactions and phases changes. Changes in energy‚ can translate in temperature differentiations. In such a case‚ energy is transferred as heat. The quantity of heat exerted in a reaction referred to as (joules) can be identified through the following equation: Heat Exerted= (Mass of Sample) x (Specific Heat) x (Change in Temperature) q=msΔT Within a calorimeter is where the reactions within this lab take place. A calorimeter allows the quantity

We used Hydrogen peroxide to test the rate of reaction‚ with the temperature of this being our variable that we changed. Hydrogen peroxide is a clear‚ colourless liquid which has various amounts of uses within the laboratory‚ industrial purposes and even in our households. It is mainly used for cleaning products and hair dye but is

Experiment 1 Simple Reaction Time Abstract Summary The Research Instructor conducted an experiment about Simple Reaction Time. The Subject hold the timer while the Experimenter gave a go signal‚ and the Subject started the timer and shared stories. The Recorder used a cell phone to track the time. The Subject was not able to see the timer‚ and also the data that was being recorded. This was performed forty-five trials. Afterwards‚ the Experimenter and the Subject switched roles and performed ten

Reaction Rate Coursework Aim To see how the concentration of a reactant affects the rate of reaction‚ in this case sodium thiosulphate and acid. Scientific Background For a reaction to occur‚ the particles of the reactants must be colliding with each other with enough energy‚ the amount of energy needed for the reaction is called activation energy. Activation energy is altered by temperature‚ concentration‚ surface area of and the pressure on the reactants. Stirring the reactants also increases
