Diels-Alder reaction was performed in this experiment. Which is a reaction that was discovered by Otto Diels and Kurt Alder. This particular type of reaction is the concerted cycloaddition among a dienophile and a diene. The Diels-Alder reaction allows for the synthesis of stereospecific rings in an efficient manner. This reaction proceed in a single step method‚ otherwise known as Nucleophilic Substitution in the second order (SN2). The Diels-Alder reaction is categorized as a pericyclic reaction‚ this

Flowers and Acid Call them freaks‚ the underground‚ the counterculture‚ flower children‚ or just simply hippies‚ they are all loose labels for the youth culture of the 60’s that transformed life in the West as we knew it‚ introducing the spirit of freedom‚ of hope‚ of happiness‚ of change‚ and of revolution (Miles 9). The years that made up the 1960’s were some of the most exciting and turbulent years in American history. The post World War II baby boomers grew up. A president and

Reaction on Reaction Paper The first thing that came to my mind when I have heard about Reaction paper is “What exactly is it?” and before I get an understanding of that‚ I resisted that change. But later‚ when I have studied about it and understood its purpose‚ I have started thinking “Why people avoid change at the first look without an analysis?” The general human tendency is to live in a comfortable zone in which he has lived for quite some time. He draws a circle‚ thinks that circle is his

analyze data and draw a conclusion. In this experiment I will find out that in a type of water the Alka-Seltzer will dissolve faster and slower. Alka-Seltzer is one of the world’s best known antacids. Its main function is to absorb excess stomach acid. II. MATERIALS: * Tap Water - Warm Water * Cold Water - Salt Water * Acidic Water -5 cups (250 mL of water in each cup) * A whole Alka-Seltzer tablet III. HYPOTHESIS: My hypothesis is that the Alka-Seltzer tablet

An Investigation into the Factors Affecting the Rate of the Reaction between Calcium Carbonate and Hydrochloric Acid A chemical reaction is the process by which atoms or groups of atoms are redistributed‚ resulting in a change in the molecular composition of substances. The reaction rate is how quickly a reaction occurs and this can be affected by four different factors: ¡¤ changing the surface area of any solids involved ¡¤ changing the concentration of reactants in solution ¡¤ changing the temperature

as diagram shows. The measuring cylinder must be filled with water and then inverted into the tub. 2.Measure the quantity of hydrochloric acid and marble chips to the decided amount. Add water to the acid to change the concentration to what you need. 3.Take note of the amount of water in the measuring cylinder. 4.Put the marble chips and hydrochloric acid into the conical flask. Replace the bung and start the stopwatch. 5.Once the decided amount of time has passed‚ take note of the remaining

Carbonates react with strong acids to give off carbon dioxide and water. Marble is calcium carbonate and thus behaves in the same way: CaCO3 (s) + 2HCL (aq)  CaCL2 (aq) + H2O (l) +CO2 (g) In this experiment‚ I am going to see if temperature affects the reaction rate between marble chips and hydrochloric acid by timing the release of carbon dioxide in the reaction. I predict the higher the temperature‚ the faster the reaction rate. This is due to the kinetic theory. The more heat

Acid in the human stomach When people refer to acid they usually see it as a corrosive liquid that can dissolve metals or change the color of a substance. So they think of acid as a dangerous matter for the body and believe it can easily dissolve your skin. What I have previously listed are indeed properties of certain acids‚ such as Hydrofluoric Acid which can cause irreversible tissue damage if it comes in contact with skin‚ but not all acids are this strong. As a matter of fact what a lot of

Title: Experiment 17‚ Reaction kinetics – Determination of the activation energy of the reaction between oxalic acid and potassium permanganate. Objective: To determine the activation energy of the reaction between oxalic acid and potassium permanganate. Introduction: Chemical kinetics is the study of chemical reaction rates‚ how reaction rates are controlled and the pathway or mechanism by which a reaction proceeds from its reactants to its products. Reaction rates vary from the very fast‚ which
