1. Introduction: This investigation will show the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction. The Berocca tablet was reacted with hot water (47oC) and then with cold water (20oC). In the hypothesis‚ it was predicted that the temperature will be inverse proportional to the time Berocca tablet reacts with water to produce 50ml of carbon dioxide gas. Through the result table‚ we can see that the hypothesis is supported and it was correct. In the conclusion‚ it was shown that the temperature has the

The Rate of a Reaction The area of chemistry that deals with the rate or speed of chemical reactions is known a chemical kinetics. The word “kinetic” is derived from the Greek name kinitikos that means movement or motion. In the present context‚ the kinetic means the reaction rate or rate of a reaction that is defined as the change in concentration of a reactant or a product with time (M/s). Chemical reaction can be represented by the following general equation. Reactants Products It is very important

Exchange rate determination is Two-way process and following are factors that Influence Exchange Rates Floating rates are determined by the market forces of supply and demand. How much demand there is in relation to supply of a currency will determine that currency ’s value in relation to another currency. For example‚ if the demand for U.S. dollars by Europeans increases‚ the supply-demand relationship will cause an increase in price of the U.S. dollar in relation to the euro. There are countless

AMDG THE RATE OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS The Factor of Carbon Dioxide I. Introduction In this lab‚ the rate of photosynthesis will be measured by manipulating a variable that is needed for the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use light energy‚ carbon dioxide‚ and water to produce oxygen and glucose. This release of products provides the necessary nutrients for all forms of life. In water‚ leaves‚ usually float in water due to the gases such as carbon dioxide and

new and 185‚000 are recurrent strokes. Nearly 75% of all strokes occur in people above the age of 65. The risk of having a stroke increases after the age of 55 but it can occur at any age. Stroke mortality rates are higher for African-Americans than for whites‚ even at younger ages (Mozaffarian et al.‚ 2015). The number of people living with stroke is expected to increase by 4 million by the year 2030 (Heidenreich et al.‚ 2011). Clinical types and subtypes of stroke Stroke can be broadly classified

ERYTHROCYTE SEDIMENTATION RATE | -AND ITS VARIATION | | ABSTRACT: The Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR)‚ also branded as sedimentation rate or Biernacki Reaction‚ is the rate at which red blood cells sediment in a time of 1 hour. To execute the test‚ anti-coagulated blood is positioned in an erect tube‚ known as a Westergren tube‚ and the rate at which the red blood cells fall is calculated and accounted in millimeters per hour (mm/h)
