In order to prepare the iodine solution titrant‚ exactly 50 mL of 0.01 M KIO3‚ exactly 20 mL of 10% KI solution‚ and exactly 25 mL of 0.3 M H2SO4 was transferred into a 100 mL volumetric flask using a volumetric pipette. The volumetric flask was then filled to the mark with distilled water. The flask was covered with Parafilm and inverted to mix. The next part of the experiment was to determine the Vitamin C in a solution of known concentration. Observations of the Vitamin C sample and the amount

acts on a molecule called substrate and it also significantly speed up a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy. In order to learn about the enzyme and its behaviour‚ this lab practical is conducted to examine the kinetic of the enzyme alkaline phosphatase. As illustration‚ when alkaline phosphatase is added to a substrate called p-Nitrophenyl phosphate (colourless in alkaline solution)‚ a series of reaction takes place and eventually releases a product called p-nitrophenol (yellow in alkaline

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

Report Iodination of Acetone Temperature as a Variable Objective The objective of this lab is to determine the energy of activation of the iodination of acetone. This will be done by performing the reaction at differing temperatures. The same reaction orders we obtained for the previous lab will be incorporated into this experiment. The equation Ea = -8.31 x slope of ln k vs. 1/T(K) will be used to determine the energy of activation required for this this reaction. Hypothesis :

INTRODUCTION Iodine deficiency disorders are still very much prevalent in the world today. Two billion people‚ estimated by the WHO‚ still lack a sufficient level of iodine in their diets which leads to a range of disorders known as iodine deficiency disorders (IDD). So what is iodine? Iodine is an essential micronutrient in the diet which is used by the thyroid gland (located in the throat) to produce thyroid hormones which help control the body’s metabolism. The two most important thyroid

experimentation was to evaluate absorbance and the reaction rate of an enzyme‚ ’-amylase in starch-iodine solution. We will be testing the relationship between enzymatic reaction affected by temperature and pH. Through the testing the enzyme at different temperatures‚ and different pH levels; it would determine at which temperature and pH level the enzyme worked the most efficiently. Analyzing absorbance of the solutions with spectrophotometery will determine the reaction rate. To test the optimal pH‚ the starch

Introduction The production of acetone and butanol by means of solvent-producing strains of Clostridium spp. was one of the first large-scale industrial fermentation processes to be developed‚and during the first part of this century it ranked second in importance only to ethanol fermentation. The reason for the almost total demise of this fermentation in the early 1960s was the inability of the fermentation process to compete economically with the chemical synthesis of solvents. However‚ interest

Kinetic Energy: Consider a baseball flying through the air. The ball is said to have "kinetic energy" by virtue of the fact that its in motion relative to the ground. You can see that it is has energy because it can do "work" on an object on the ground if it collides with it (either by pushing on it and/or damaging it during the collision). The formula for Kinetic energy‚ and for some of the other forms of energy described in this section will‚ is given in a later section of this primer. Potential

It was in August 1998 that the first chinks in the Kinetic Honda Motors Ltd. (Kinetic Honda) armor were reported by Business India. Both Honda and the Firodias of Kinetic were quick to deny rumors of a split‚ though reports of the Firodias quietly raising resources to buy out Honda’s stake kept surfacing. The Firodias were even reported to have securitised the assets of their two-wheeler finance company - 20th Century Kinetic Finance (TCKF) - to raise this money. Trouble had been brewing since
