    the concentration of the acid solution changes the rate of the reaction between dilute hydrochloric acid and magnesium metal. • As the metal reacts with the acid‚ hydrogen gas is produced and the metal dissolves. To get an estimate of the rate of reaction‚ the time taken for a small piece of magnesium ribbon to dissolve (disappear) can be measured. This is a “clock reaction” and the reaction rate is proportional to 1/time taken SAFETY Dilute hydrochloric acid is harmful. Wear safety spectacles

    BRONSTED-LOWRY ACIDS AND BASES 1. The Bronsted-Lowry definition There are many definitions of acids and bases in existence‚ but the most useful one is the Bronsted-Lowry definition: An acid is a substance which can behave as a proton (re presented as a hydrogen ion‚ H+) donor. Any substance which contains hydrogen bonded to a more electronegative element can thus behave as an acid: HCl == H+ + Cl- H2SO4 == H+ + HSO4- A base is a substance which can behave as a proton acceptor. Any

    To examine three different ways of denaturing proteins. HypothesisIt was predicted that the physical characteristics of the egg white solution at room temperature would appear clear and normal like a raw egg white. This is because nothing would be done to the egg white. It was also predicted that when the egg white solution gets heated‚ the protein would denature if the temperature exceeds 65 °C. The protein would solidify‚ turn opaque‚ and turn white in colour. This would happen because the heat

    What is it? Folic acid is a water soluble B vitamin. It is used during pregnancy to prevent Neural Tube Defects (NTD’s). NTD’s are birth defects of the brain‚ spine or spinal cord (MedlinePlus). They can be fatal depending on how bad the injury is especially if it is to the brain. Folic acid works with vitamin B12 in the formation of red blood cells. Deficiency in both folic acid and vitamin B12 causes a certain type of anemia known as macrocytic anemia. Macrocytic anemia is a type of anemia that

There are four main factors that could affect the rate of reaction these include the concentration of the reactant‚ the temperature‚ the surface area of solid reactant‚ and the pressure. To prove this theory‚ I will holding a rate of reaction experiment. I will investigate how the difference of hydrochloric acid affect the rate of reaction in 30 seconds reaction between hydrochloric acid and magnesium with balanced equation of Mg + 2HCl → MgCl2 + H2.

    Ricin is a toxic protein found in castor oil plant seeds. The toxicity of Ricin has been known for centuries and was even used by the KGB government to assassinate Georgi Markov‚ a famous journalist who openly criticized the Soviet Union’s communist regime. The toxicity of ricin is caused by its ability to deactivate ribosomes and halt protein synthesis. Therefore‚ Ricin is categorized as a ribosome inactivating protein (RIP). There are two types of RIPs: type I and type II. Type I RIPs are usually
