AP Chemistry Kinetics Lab Abstract: The purpose of this lab is to learn how to write law expressions‚ determine orders by graphs‚ and calculate rate constants. By determining the number of drops of sodium hypochlorite necessary to make a diluted food dye change to colorless in less than three minutes helps calculate the absorbance which can then be analyzed to find the pseudo rate constant and eventually leading to the rate constant and the rate law. The results show that the m and n are both 1st

CHEMISTRY EXPERIMENT-3 CHEMICAL KINETICS PREPARED BY BURAK COBAN PURPOSE: In this experiment we will study the rate of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to form oxygen according to the net equation: 2H2O2 (aq) 2H2O(l) + O2 by measuring the rate at which oxygen evolved‚ we will investigate how the rate changes with varying initial concentrations of hydrogen peroxide and iodide catalyst. After we will

Abstract The main goal of the enzyme kinetics experiment was to see how the phosphatase-catalyzed hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl produced p-nitrophenol in the presence of phosphate and fluoride ion inhibitors of various concentrations. The calculated Km constant was found to be 0.22 for all reactions. The Vmax values for each inhibition ion were 0.00986 for the phosphate ion and 0.00436 for the fluoride ion. The inhibitor constant‚ Ki‚ was determined to be 0.0967 for the phosphate ion. The inhibitor

Chemistry 2500- Exercise C4 The Emission Spectrum of Atomic Hydrogen Objective The purpose of this lab was to calculate an experimental value for the Rydberg constant and then the ionization energy for the hydrogen atom. These values will be obtained by using a prism spectrograph to measure the wavelength value for a section of the visible line spectrum of atomic hydrogen. Theoretical Background When H+ combines with an electron it forms it’s excited state‚ H. This excited atom

kind of role does hydrogen peroxide and a liver have in their chemical reaction? In the experiment‚ we saw they had a reaction‚ but completed further tests to determine whether they changed after the reaction. Hydrogen peroxide is chemically changed into water and the liver is broken down in the reaction. In the experiment‚ a fresh piece of chicken liver was put into a test tube filled with 3% hydrogen peroxide. We knew a reaction was taking place because the hydrogen peroxide started to foam and

Speed of Decomposition and Its Factors Purpose The term decomposition is the process of breaking down dead organisms to reuse them. Decomposition allows nutrients in organisms to become free after they die or have become old and they are ready to be used by living plants and animals for their growth. Without decomposition useful nutrients would remain locked inside of a dead organism and it would be very difficult for new life to grow. Most of the nutrients that are essential for the plants

Procedure: The first part of this lab involved the standardization of the base NaOH with potassium hydrogen phthalate‚ or KHP. First‚ about 400 mL of NaOH (10 M) were poured into the 600-mL beaker. This was used to fill the burette. The 50-mL burette was rinsed through twice with 5 mL of NaOH. Then‚ the burette was mounted on the ring stand using a burette clamp and filled to 0 mL. Some of the NaOH was drained to fill the tip of the burette. The initial volume of NaOH‚ rounded to two decimal places

Lab 3: Hydrogen Spectrum Abstract When white light is viewed through a diffraction grating‚ we can see each component that makes up the light. However‚ when in an excited state‚ a gaseous element produces bright light of specific wavelengths rather than a continuous spectrum of colors. This phenomenon ultimately lead to the Neils Bohr model of the atom in 1913. Introduction In the middle of the 19th century‚ Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kichoff observed that gases emit spectral lines specific
