Redox reactions (Redox terminology‚ galvanic cells‚ standard electrode potentials‚ strength of oxidizing/reducing agents‚ corrosion and protection against it) Oxidation is defined as the loss of electrons and reduction is defined as the gain of electrons. Oxidizing agents‚ such as oxygen are defined as substances which accept electrons; reducing agents are substances which donate electrons. Redox reactions are: a) The reactions of metals with non-metals 2Na+Cl2→2Na+Cl- b) The reactions

Dead or Alive II Pre-Lab 1.In order to find the article‚ I first went to Google Scholar and set my search parameters for articles published from 2010-2013. I then decided to use the keywords “deep sea trench life” to pull up a broad spectrum of articles pertaining to the types of life we would be discovering in our samples. I then browsed each article’s title to determine if it contained relevant information to the topic at hand. 2.After finding a suitable article‚ I then went through the parameters

REACTIONS OF HYDROCARBONS Vanessa P. Manibpel De La Salle University - Dasmariñas ABSTRACT Five substances namely Hexane‚ Eugenol‚ Unknown hydrocarbon 1‚ Unknown hydrocarbon 2‚ and Acetylene gas was used for the selective reactivity of hydrocarbons to functional group tests; Bayer’s test‚ Bromine test light‚ Bromine test dark‚ and Tollen’s test. In Bayer’s test‚ only Acetylene‚ Eugenol and Unknown hydrocarbon 2 reacted positively and the rest retain the purplish color of KMnO4. On the other hand

endothermic reaction happened everywhere around us. Basically exothermic and endothermic reaction is transfer energy to the surroundings and take in energy from the surroundings (BBC GCSE bitesize). If the reaction forward ，then is exothermic.If the reaction is the backwards ‚then is endothermic. When a reaction take place‚ the energy started to transfer from different object to the surroundings or take away energy from the surroundings. When temperature started to change. Exothermic Reaction An exothermic

determine the reaction time of the test participant and using the subtractive method identify the selection time and identification time of the participant. The experiments had one participant who participated in a total of 6 experiments; two experiments required a simple reaction with a single stimulus and 4 experiments that required a more complicated reaction. Keywords Subtractive method – the procedure of estimating the time it takes to perform various cognitive operations. Simple reaction – this

SN1 Reactions For SN1 reactions it’s important to have a good leaving group because this reaction occurs in two steps. Because alcohol is such a poor leaving group it needs to be helped by silver nitrate to help promote the ionization of the alkyl halide. This helps form the products of the SN1 reaction. 2-chlorobutane This reaction didn’t occur because the carbocation isn’t stable enough for an SN1 reaction. 2-bromobutane This reaction occurred in 32 seconds. This reaction occurred quickly

Thermodynamics – Enthalpy of Reaction and Hess’s Law I. Purpose The purpose of this lab is to verify Hess’s Law through the three reactions of NaOH and HCl‚ NH4Cl and NaOH‚ and NH3 and HCl. The sum of the enthalpies of the first two reactions should equal the enthalpy of the third reaction. II. Background Hess’s Law is used to determine the enthalpy of a reaction from adding two or more preceding reactions. To determine the enthalpies of certain chemical reactions‚ the change in must

Properties and Reactions of Hydrocarbons Abstract Introduction Hydrocarbons are organic materials that contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms‚ these molecules can be saturated or unsaturated and acyclic‚ cyclic‚ or aromatic. In this experiment we used a variety of methods to examine the physical and chemical properties of hydrocarbons. The first experiment we tested a variety of solvents to see if they dissolved our alkane (Decalin). One would expect that non-polar solvents will dissolve

Coursework Rates of Reaction Research The rate of reaction tells us how quickly a chemical reaction takes place. It is important for people in industry to know how fast a reaction goes. They have to know exactly how much of their product they can make each hour‚ day or week. In a shampoo factory‚ the rate might be 100 bottles per minute. We can’t work out the rate of a reaction from its chemical equation. Equations can only tells us how much product we can get. They don’t say how quickly
