There are two types of chemical reaction that occur one goes only in one direction and the other one is reversible. A reversible reaction is when a products starts to form the backward reaction starts where the products turns back to reactant molecules. When the rate of forward and backward reaction is already equal and the concentrations of the reactants and products no longer change with time we can say that chemical equilibrium is already achieved. A reaction is said to be at equilibrium when

for the organisms by catalyzing various biochemical reactions. Most of these chemical reactions would not take place in the conditions available if the enzymes were not a present. Therefore‚ we can say that being involved as catalysts is the main and most important role of an enzyme in any organism. Furthermore‚ many reactions that are thermodynamically favored do not occur quickly because there is not enough energy necessary to start the reaction (1). This energy is called the activation energy and

This lab focused on three factors affecting reaction rates‚ temperature‚ surface area‚ and concentration. Our first experiment (table 1) looked mainly into the effects of temperature on the reaction rate. To see how different temperatures would change the reaction rates we had three flasks all containing varying temperatures of water(H20). One with cold water (4°C)‚ one room temperature (21°C)‚ and one with hot water (44°C). In each flask‚ we dropped one tablet of Alka-Seltzer‚ all within 0.008 grams

objective: In this experiment‚ I decided to find out how temperature would affect endothermic reactions compared to exothermic reactions. An endothermic reaction absorbs energy in the form of heat. This reaction feels cold because it is taking heat away from its surroundings. It also releases gases. An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases energy as heat. Since the energy is released‚ the exothermic reactions feel hot. Methods/Materials I did three experiments. I mixed lemon juice and baking

(a) The solubility of Cu(OH)2(s) is 1.72 x10–6 g/100. mL of solution at 25° C. (i) Write the balanced chemical equation for the dissociation of Cu(OH)2(s) in aqueous solution. Cu(OH)2 Cu 2+ + 2 OH – (ii) Calculate the solubility (in mol/L) of Cu(OH)2 at 25 °C. (1.72 x10–6 g/0.100 L)(1 mol/97.5 g) = 1.76 x10–7 mol/L (iii) Calculate

electric current to drive an otherwise non-spontaneous chemical reaction. During electrolysis‚ hydrogen atoms (H2) are reduced at the cathode whereas the oxygen atoms (O2) are oxidized at the anode. There were three different solutions used in the experiment in order to have a better understanding of electrolysis reactions. From each solution‚ reaction equations were produced. The reactions could be observed from the indicators used. The reactions showed that hydrogen ions were produced at the anode‚ making

iBILIB REACTION PAPER (CHEMISTRY) The rock that was used in experiment #1 is not just an ordinary rock because it’s a calcium carbide and was known here in the Philippines as kalburo. When this chemical compound is mixed with water there will be a chemical reaction and it produces acetylene gas. The two anions of carbon‚ the carbide (C4-) and dicarbide (C22-) ions react with water to produce hydrocarbons. The carbide ion gives methane gas‚ and the dicarbide ion gives acetylene gas.

Hamad IS1‚ B4 Endothermic and exothermic reactions Background information: An endothermic reaction is a product or a substance accompanied by the absorption of heat. An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases heat. Design: Research question- Which reaction occurs‚ exothermic or endothermic‚ when Epson salt‚ Borax‚ Laundry detergent‚ and baking soda are added‚ separately‚ with water? Hypothesis- If Epson salt is mixed with water then the reaction will be endothermic because salt is used
