CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM I. Introduction In a chemical reaction‚ when reactants are mixed together in a reaction vessel‚ the whole of the reactants do not get converted into products. After some time‚ there will come a point when a fixed amount of reactants will exist in harmony with a fixed amount of products; neither amount will change anymore. This state is called chemical equilibrium (Birk‚ 1994; Jones‚ 1987; LeMay‚ 2002). There are three characteristics of a system in chemical equilibrium: a. the

Spectrophotometric Determination of Equilibrium Formal Report Matt DeLuca The Department of Chemistry‚ SUNY College at Brockport Brockport‚ NY 14420 CHM 206.04 Abstract: The main objective of this experiment was incorporating the use of spectrophotometry in an attempt to study the position of equilibrium. Furthermore‚ after the completion of this experiment‚ the formation of the equilibrium constant of the iron thiocyanate complex could

In this experiment‚ equilibrium will be examines in the reaction beteween the iron (III) ion and the thiocyanate ion: Fe3+ (aq) + SCN- (aq) ------ FeSCN2+ (aq) The FeSCN2+ complex ion has a blood red color while the iron and the thiocyanate ion are colorless. Therefore‚ the shift in the reaction can followed by noting a change in the intensity of the clood red color‚ which indicates a change in the concentration of the complex ion FeSCN2+. If the reaction shifts to the right‚ the blood red color

Torque and Equilibrium Purpose: Apply principle of static equilibrium to determine a coefficient of friction. Research Question: What is the coefficient of friction between a meter stick and wall? Hypothesis: Tying a piece of string on to the end of a meter stick‚ put the other end of the meter stick against the wall so that the meter stick is horizontal and does not slide down the wall. Hang a weight on the meter stick sliding it to a point where the meter stick is about to come off from

Evaluation of the Gas Law Constant Abstract: The result of the change in volume was approximately 22 CC or 0.00084 mol. This translates into the average for the R constant being 83.8L*atm/K*mol. The four determinations ensured that the results were accurate because more than one trial helps somewhat prevent error. Approximately 0.20g of the Mg ribbon was used for these determinations. Introduction: 1. Theory If the temperature of a gas sample was held constant‚ its volume varied inversely

Experiment 3: Chemical Equilibrium Purpose The purpose of this experiment was to determine the equilibrium constant for the formation of FeSCN2+. Introduction Chemical equilibrium is the point in a reversible reaction where the concentration of the reactants and that of the products remains constant. This point of equilibrium is referred to as the Kc value‚ which can be obtained using the formula: Kc = [product] [reactant] In this experiment‚ we used a spectrophometer to

Lab Report: Toothpickase and Enzymes September 19‚ 2012 Olivia DePhillips Lab Partner: Joy Morgan Meyers Signature: Introduction Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions‚ the molecules at the beginning of the process‚ called substrates‚ are converted into different molecules‚ called products. Almost all chemical reactions in a biological cell need enzymes in order to occur at rates sufficient for life. Like all catalysts‚ enzymes work
