The Iodine Clock Investigation Introduction This is an investigation into the rate of a reaction and the factors that contribute to how fast a reaction will take place. Through the recording and analysis of raw data‚ this investigation also allows us to apply generally accepted scientific rules and to test them against results gained from accurate experimental procedures. Aim The aim of this experiment is to investigate the rate at which iodine is formed when the concentration

Properties of Chemical Reactions Ms. Whitty‚ Science 10 Fiona Adams‚ November 1st‚ 2012 Introduction Chemical reactions are a part of our daily lives‚ from rusting metal to making bread to leaves changing colour in the fall. A chemical reaction is the process that occurs when two or more substances combine to produce a chemical change. When a chemical reaction takes place‚ the change is indicated by one or more qualitative properties. The colour or odor could change‚ gas could be produced

The Effect of pH on Enzymatic Reaction Rate Abstract Enzymes are affected by changes in pH. The most favorable pH value— the point where the enzyme is most active—is known as the optimum pH. This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of pH reaction rate on an enzyme‚ catalase‚ from yeast. The experimental results indicate that the catalase worked best at a neutral pH level of seven (7). Introduction An enzyme is a protein molecule that serves as a catalyst. “The basic function of

Introduction Nivaldo J. Tro describes kinetics as the study of how changes that occur in chemical reactions take place over time‚ and because of its vast utilization in a multitude of industries‚ it may be one of the most significant and fascinating aspects in the entire chemical world. One application of the study of kinetics can be applied to the determination of the rate of a chemical reaction involving a certain selection of chemicals (FD&C Blue #1 and sodium hypochlorite). The purpose of the

is being released or absorbed in a chemical reaction. My lab partner and I had to determine the heat exchanged when solid magnesium hydroxide is mixed with solid citric acid‚ using a coffee cup calorimeter. Given that citric acid is soluble in water is the property that makes this reaction possible. The first law of thermodynamics and Hess’s law are also present within this experiment. Knowing the difference between endothermic and exothermic reactions is also relevant. If the temperature goes down

Investigating the effects of changing concentration: iodine clock reaction. Abstract This is an experiment to show the Iodine Clock Reaction. To create a chemical reaction to see how long it takes for solution to change to a dark blue Color. When changing the concentration of the iodide (K1) and adding distill water to make it up to 5cm³ each time. This is to see if the reaction takes less with less concentration or faster with more concentration added to the peroxodisulphatee. So with the solution

The Rate of a Reaction The area of chemistry that deals with the rate or speed of chemical reactions is known a chemical kinetics. The word “kinetic” is derived from the Greek name kinitikos that means movement or motion. In the present context‚ the kinetic means the reaction rate or rate of a reaction that is defined as the change in concentration of a reactant or a product with time (M/s). Chemical reaction can be represented by the following general equation. Reactants Products It is very important
