reaction vessel by condensation on the cool glass. Reflux is used in this experiment to catalyze the chemical reaction from 1-Butanol to 1-Bromobutane because it allows the reaction to be heated for a long period of time without losing the volatile reactants or products. Similar instruments are used for the distillation method‚ which allows the separation of two liquids based on their boiling points. The more volatile components (which have a higher vapor pressure and lower boiling point) will be

the base level of ecosystems‚ and large groups of them make populations‚ large groups of which become communities. Each organism has a niche‚ or a special role that makes it unique in its community. Populations are kept from getting too large by limiting factors‚ like space and food availability. The carrying capacity of an ecosystem is the amount of organisms in a population that the area can sustain. Predator-prey food chains and food webs are the main ways that different species interact with

Introduction Chemical kinetics is the study of reaction rates. A reaction rate is the speed of the change in either reactants or products over a period of time. General kinetic rate equation is: Where [A] and [B] are the concentration of the species in the reaction. The variable k is the rate constant‚ which is a function of time and catalyst presence. The variables m and n are the order of reaction for their respective species concentration. The higher the value of the reaction order the

reactions involve the production of a salt (CaCl2)‚ water (H2O)‚ and sometimes carbon dioxide (CO2). In this instance‚ since the reactant base involves carbon‚ the gas carbon dioxide will be formed. This will allow for measurement of the rate of reaction to be established by measuring the mass lost from the reacting mixture over time. The flask containing the reactants will be placed on an electronic balance and at certain time intervals the mass will be recorded. The manipulation of the independent

Objectives: Students will be introduced to chemical reactions‚ reactants‚ and products and will build upon their knowledge of chemical versus physical changes. Essential Questions: How is a chemical change related to a chemical reaction? Estimated Time: 50 minutes Materials: Steel wool‚ lighter‚ Triple-Bean Balance

The supervisor notices an excess amount of m-aminobenzoic acid stored away which is currently not being used for anything. This reactant can be used in certain reactions to produce valuable solutions for ophthalmologists. This product is going to waste‚ and our objective is to see if we can obtain a usable end product when reacting m-aminobenzoic acid with 2‚4-dinitrochlorobenzene

reactions and it does so by providing energy to reactant particles so that a larger fraction of them reach the activation energy necessary to start the reaction. The purpose of this experiment was to estimate the Activation Energy for the Iodination of Acetone through the analysis of the relationship between the rate constant and temperature. Six trials of the reaction were run at different temperatures (over a range of 40.5 ºC) maintaining the reactants concentration constant‚ and the Activation Energy

also included the birth of the Ideal Gas constant “R”. R’s value is approximately .0821 L x atm./K x mol. To verify Avogadro’s gas constant R this experiment combined various amounts of NaHCO3 (limiting reagent) with excess CH3COOH to produce various volumes of CO2 gas. By using NaHCO3 as the limiting reagent‚ the experiment was able to conduct multiple trials with varying amounts of NaHCO3 to best test Avogadro’s theory. NaHCO3(s) + CH3COOH(aq) → NaCH3COO(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)

involves the Hydrogen Peroxide‚ Hydrogen from the acid (H2SO4) and the Iodine ion from Potassium Iodide (KI): H2O2 + 2I - + 2H + I2 + 2H2O If the reaction doesn’t contain Sodium Thiosulphate (Na2S2O3) then the reactants would gradually go from clear to a yellow/brown colour when the iodine appears‚ this would make the reaction hard to time accurately. When Sodium Thiosulphate is present it means there is a second very fast reaction between the iodine formed and
