Title: Surface Area vs. Rate of Reaction Research question: How can different temperatures affect the rate of reaction‚ when the reactant is in powder form? Hypothesis: If the temperature of the water is increased‚ the rate of reaction will also increase as the heat given off to the particles will increase leading to more movement and frequent collisions. Background information: Chemical reactions occur when two or more molecules interact with each other‚ but that can only occur when they

Step 1: Pb (NO3) 2 (aq) + CaCl2 (aq) PbCl2 (aq) + Ca (NO3) 2 (aq) (double displacement reaction) According to the solubility guidelines lead (II) chloride (PbCl2) is a possible precipitate. This is because even though most chlorides are soluble‚ lead chloride is considered insoluble (p.2‚ Lesson 17). Step 2: PbCl2 ↔ Pb2+ + 2Cl- Q = [Pb2+] [Cl-] 2 Step 3: Ksp = 1.2 x 10-5 (from table 17.1‚ p.5) Step 4: V2 = 20.0 mL (volume of Pb (NO3)2) + 45.0 mL (volume of CaCl2) = 65.0

The Sequence of Chemical Reactions Drew Selfridge Dave Allen‚ Lab partner Instructor Yang February 11‚ 1997 INTRODUCTION This experiment was to recover the most amount of copper after it is subjected to a sequence of reactions. The copper is originally in solid form‚ but the reactions will turn it into free Cu+2 ions floating in solution. The ions will then be regrouped to form solid copper once again. During this process‚ however‚ some of the Cu+2 ions may be lost. The copper will subjected

Abstract: When ionic compounds are dissolved in water‚ they break apart into ions. In this lab the opportunity to mix two ionic solutions and observe the results was given. Some ions will remain dissolved and uncombined in the solution even when they are mixed with other ions. When other ions are mixed‚ they form compounds that appear as cloudy or grainy precipitates. The objective of this lab was to observe the formation of compounds and to write the names and formulas of ionic compounds. It is

Skills Determining the reactivity of various metals Testing Relative Oxidizing and Reducing Strengths of Metal Atoms and Ions By observing whether reactions occur between solid metals and metal ions in solution‚ you can determine the order of oxidizing and reducing agents according to strength. Question How can the presence or absence of a reaction provide information about the relative strength of oxidizing and reducing agents? Safety Precautions • Wear goggles‚ gloves‚ and an apron

The purpose of this experiment was to determine the speed at which a reaction took place between an iodine and hydrogen peroxide solution. In addition to a change in concentration‚ a change in temperature and a catalyst variable was also introduced to conclude whether or not their presence affected the overall speed of the reaction. In order to determine the effects of these variables‚ several iodine and hydrogen peroxide reactions were prepared‚ (all at varying temperatures‚ volumes‚ and concentrations)

Heats of Reaction Lab Report Purpose: To measure the heats of reaction for three related exothermic reactions and to verify Hess’s Law of Heat Summation. NaOH(s) ( Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) ΔH = -10.6kcal/mol NaOH(s) + H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ( H2O + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ΔH = -23.9kcal/mol Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) + H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ( H2O + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ΔH = -13.3kcal/mol Background: Energy changes occur in all chemical reactions; energy is either absorbed or released. If energy is released in

Round-Trip Copper Reactions Lab The purpose of this lab was to evaluate our skills of decanting a supernatant liquid without losing the solid and successful completion of a series of reactions. This was done through five chemical reactions involving copper. In this lab‚ elemental copper was put through five different chemical reactions in order to convert it into different compounds. By the end of the fifth reaction‚ the copper was back to its elemental state. In the first reaction‚ 0.95 g of pure

DISCUSSION In this experiment‚ we will extract plasmid DNA that carrying pKan and pAmp from E. coli that have been cultured overnight in LB media containing antibiotic kanamycin and ampicillin respectively. So‚ the DNA that will be introduced later will make the bacteria resistance to antibiotic kanamycin or ampicillin. A plasmid is a small‚ circular‚ double stranded DNA molecules and cloning vector that are widely used for recombinant DNA technology. It can be physically separated from chromosomal
