Investigating the rate of electrolysis. An investigation to find out what factors affect the rate of electrolysis of a solution containing copper (II) ions. Plan It is known that by passing a constant electric current through a copper sulphate solution the passage of ions through this solution results in copper atoms being dissolved into the solution from the anode‚ which has a positive charge while positive copper‚ ions (cations) are also being discharged at the cathode which has a negative charge

The effect of Lead ions on amylase activity Aim What is the effect of Lead ions on the enzyme Amylase. And does it have an inhibitory effect‚ which causes the substrate‚ in this case starch to be blocked from the reaction process in the enzyme catalyst. Also is the effect reversible or irreversible‚ which is put on the amylase. Method Apparatus and substances required Test tube holder 2% starch solution 6 boiling tubes labelled 1 to 6 1% lead nitrate solution 6 test tubes labelled A to E‚

We can monitor the rate at which a chemical decomposes or the rate at which a chemical substance appears. In this experiment we will be measuring the rate of decomposition of hydrogen dioxide with the following reaction: 2 H202 (aq) 4 2 H20 (l) + 02 (g) We can trap the oxygen

To begin the experiment‚ the reaction apparatus was assembled (as shown in Figure 1 below from the lab manual) consisting of a 3.0 mL conical vial charged with p-cresol (80uL from Eppendorf pipette)‚ 25% aqueous NaOH (130uL)‚ and a spin vane. The solution was mixed thoroughly and tetrabutylammonium bromide (9mg) was added along with n-propyl iodide (75uL) and it was equipped with a flask with a water reflux condenser. The solution was heated (95-100°C) while vigorously stirring it. After 60 minutes

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

Chemical kinetics‚ also known as reaction kinetics‚ is the study of rates of chemical processes. Chemical kinetics includes investigations of how different experimental conditions can influence the speed of a chemical reaction and yield information about the reaction’s mechanism and transition states‚ as well as the construction of mathematical models that can describe the characteristics of a chemical reaction. In 1864‚ Peter Waage and Cato Guldberg pioneered the development of chemical kinetics by formulating

Lead (II) Iodide The Analysis of a Chemical Reaction Introduction This experiment is based upon a discovery made through the isolation of PbI2 using a particular scientific method‚ which studies ratios of lead to iodine. Precipitation reactions occur when oppositely charged ions attract and form an insoluble ionic solid. This experiment examines the precipitation reaction between lead (II) nitrate‚ Pb(NO3)2‚ and potassium iodide‚ KI. Both are dissolved in water and the reaction between these solutes

Investigating the effect of discomfort on reaction time Purpose and method The purpose of this investigation was to investigate the effect of discomfort on reaction time in humans‚ measured by dropping a ruler into a subject’s hand. Discomfort was caused by a bowl of ice. Background information Information is carried from the sensory receptors to the central nervous system and back the to effectors by means of nerves. When a number of different processes are involved (a situation informally

Respiratory Acidosis and Alkalosis Activity 1: Normal Breathing 1. At 20 seconds‚ pH = 7.41 2. At 40 seconds‚ pH = 7.38 3. At 60 seconds‚ pH = 7.39 4. Did the pH level of the blood change at all during normal breathing? If so‚ how? Yes it did. It went down and then back up a little bit. 5. Was the pH level always within the “normal” range for the human body? yes 6. Did the PCO2 level change during the course of normal breathing? If so‚ how? No it did not Activity 2a: Hyperventilation
