Biochemistry Lab Report Objective: The purpose of this lab is to analyze enzyme activity at pH neutral for acid phosphatase as the colorless p-nitrophenylphosphate (PNPP) substrate concentration changes. We will empirically determine the concentration of production formation‚ Vmax and Km from absorbance of yellow PNP in the reaction. Results Figure 1 This figure indicates a positive linear trend for the concentration of PNP and absorbance. Table 1: Absorbance Value for Acid Phosphatase Reaction at Varying

Chemistry 12: Reaction Kinetics Review 1. Looking at the expressions for reaction rate‚ write expressions with which you could express rates for the following reactions. (Hint: look at what happens to reactants and products.) Recall that solid or liquids can lose or gain mass‚ gases can lose or gain volume and aqueous solutions can increase or decrease in concentration. ("a" is done as an example.) a) Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) H2(g) + MgCl2(aq) reaction rate = mass of Mg consumed unit time b) c) or

Abstract The “Chemical Kinetics” experiment was done to investigate the changes in the rate of reaction under the effect of concentration‚ temperature‚ and presence of a catalyst. It was determined that as the concentration of reactants and the temperature increases‚ the rate of the reaction increases as well. Also‚ the reaction was run by the presence of catalyst‚ and the rate of the reaction increased drastically in the presence of it. The order of the reaction with respect to each reactant

Experiment A1: Kinetics of the Reaction between Acetone and Iodine The key aim of this experiment was to determine the rate equation for the acid-catalysed iodination of acetone and to hence consider the insinuations of the mechanism of the rate equation obtained. The stoichiometric equation for the reaction between iodine and acetone is below‚ followed by the rate equation (where x‚y‚z and k are the values to be obtained): I2 + CH3COCH3 CH3COCH2I + HI -d[I2]/dt = k [I2]x [CH3COCH3]y [H+]z

This assignment discusses chemical kinetics by determining the rate and average value for rate constant based on experimental values given. The orders of the reactants can only be determined experimentally‚ so we must look at how the concentration of the reactants affect the instantaneous initial rate while holding the concentration of the other reactant constant. In this reaction‚ the overall reaction order for the rate law is third because the order for A is second and the order for B is first

Reactions in Aqueous Solutions: Metathesis Reactions and Net Ionic Equations Introduction: Metathesis or double decomposition reactions are a reaction in which two compounds react to form two new compounds‚ with no changes in oxidation number. The ions of two compounds exchange partners. AX + BY AY + BX This reaction can occur between two inorganic salts when one product is insoluble in water‚ driving the reaction forward. A typical example is as followed and is considered a molecular equation

data obtained in the kinetic trace experiment in order to determine the different components that made up the rate law. Using absorbance spectroscopy to monitor concentration over time‚ rate order of the dye was found to be 1st order through the integrated rate law and through the proportionality method; the order of the bleach was also determined to be 1st order. Using this information‚ the rate constant was determined to be 0.408 M-1S-1‚ the units indicating that the reaction was a second order

Kinetic energy is increasing between letters A-B‚ C-D and E-F. Based off the observations‚ in phase A-B Tert-Butyl Alcohol stays a solid‚ in phase C-D Tert-Butyl Alcohol stays a liquid‚ and in phase E-F the chemical stays a gas. This is observed at the particle level because temperature is a measure of Ek; the temperature is increasing which increases kinetic energy. Since Ek is the energy of motion‚ the particles would increase their velocity and the number and force of collisions. However‚ the
