Using colorimetry to find the order of a reaction introduction Coloured solutions absorb some of the wavelengths in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum. A colorimeter can be used to measure the amount of light absorbed by a solution (the absorbance) and this is proportional to the concentration of the coloured species present. In this experiment you will use a colorimeter to investigate the reaction between bromine and methanoic acid:- Br2 (aq) + HCOOH (aq) ↓ 2Br-

Purpose: To determine the effect of various factors on the rate of reaction between an enzyme andits substrate‚ and also to determine the optimal ranges under which the enzyme activity ismaximized. Also to determine whether saline and alcohol are inhibitors or activators Hypothesis: PH factor prediction: I predict that as the pH increases so the activity of the enzyme willincrease until it reaches optimum pH range (pH 7) because the enzyme is less denaturedwhen it reaches the preferred pH level

Investigating Factors That Affect Rates Of Reaction Aim: How does the mass of calcium carbonate affect its rate of reaction with hydrochloric acid? Hypothesis: I hypothesize that when the mass of the calcium carbonate increases‚ the rate of reaction of the calcium carbonate and hydrochloric will also increase. The collision theory states that the more successful collisions there are within the reaction‚ the faster the rate of reaction. When the mass increases‚ so does the number of particles

Rate of Decomposition of Calcium Carbonate Theory Calcium carbonate‚ CaCO3‚is one of the most abundant minerals on the Earth. More than 4% of the Earth’s crust is composed of calcium carbonate. It is a major component in limestone‚ marble‚ seashells‚ bedrock‚ etc. Limestone and marble have been among the most widely used building materials for more than 5 000 years‚ from the pyramids in Egypt to the Parthenon in Greece and the Taj Mahal in India. In many places‚ limestone is also the foundation

as diagram shows. The measuring cylinder must be filled with water and then inverted into the tub. 2.Measure the quantity of hydrochloric acid and marble chips to the decided amount. Add water to the acid to change the concentration to what you need. 3.Take note of the amount of water in the measuring cylinder. 4.Put the marble chips and hydrochloric acid into the conical flask. Replace the bung and start the stopwatch. 5.Once the decided amount of time has passed‚ take note of the remaining

Introduction In this chemical reaction‚ the magnesium will dissolve in the hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen gas. This is because magnesium is higher than hydrogen in the reactivity series. Therefore‚ when the two reactants are combined‚ a displacement reaction occus and the magnesium displaces the hydrogen‚ forming magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas. Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) -> MgCl 2 (aq) + H 2 (g) Magnesium + Hydrochloric acid -> Magnesium Chloride + Hydrogen
