The purpose of this investigation was to determine which type of alcohol (ethanol‚ butan-1-ol‚ or propan-2-ol) contains the most energy per gram. It was expected that if we burn three alcohols (ethanol‚ propan-2-ol‚ and butan-1-ol) for 2 minutes‚ then butan-1-ol will release the most energy per gram (J/g) because butan-1-ol contains more carbon atoms than other alcohols which means more energy is required to break its chemical bonds and more energy will be released when new chemical bonds are formed

green gas. (i) Apply damp blue litmus. (Can use red litmus and just see bleaching effect.) (ii) A drop silver nitrate on the end of a glass rod into the gas. (i) litmus turns red and then is bleached white. (ii) White precipitate. (i) Non-metal‚ is acid in aqueous solution and a powerful oxidising agent (ii) It forms a small amount of chloride ion in water‚ so gives a positive result for the chloride test.

Purpose: The purpose of the ‘Rates of Reactions’ lab is to learn how to plan an investigative lab without outside help and to learn about the ‘Rates of Reactions’. This lab will require students to take responsibility for their own learning and use their prior knowledge to aid in the completion of this lab. In the lab prepared below‚ students will be learning about Rates of Reaction with varying concentrations of Alka-Seltzer with water. Hypothesis: I believe that the more water added to the canister

EFFECT OF CONCENTRATION ON REACTION RATE The aim of this experiment is to find the effect of varying the concentration of iodide ions on the rate of reaction between hydrogen peroxide and an acidified solution of potassium iodide: H2O2(aq) + 2H+(aq) + 2I⁻ → 2H2O(l) + I2(aq) The course of this reaction can be followed by carrying it out in the presence of small quantities of starch and sodium thiosulfate solutions. As the iodine molecules are produced they immediately react with the thiosulfate

The first pair of plates is then placed in the refrigerator ant the time is recorded at 6:05 p.m. as the start time. The end time will be after 1 hour has elapsed. The radius of the crystal are measured and recorded for both sets of pairs. Then the rate of diffusion for each molecule is calculated by converting the radius from millimeters to micrometers and dividing the resulting number by the number of minutes the plates were sitting. * Diffusion in liquid -room temperature water -crystal

found that‚ in acidic pH environment‚ the reaction rate of starch being broken down by alpha amylase is less than that of the reaction rate at a neutral and slightly basic pH environment. This finding partially supports our hypothesis. The spectrophotometer readings in our experiment measured the absorbance of 3-amino-5-nitrosalicylic acid‚ a colored molecule formed after dinitrosalicylic acid (DNSA) has reacted with the products of the enzymatic reaction or the simple sugars. Therefore‚ the absorbance

Erin Bolton Chemistry Lab Report April 29‚ 2015 Lab: Reaction Rates Introduction: In this experiment we studied the reaction of potassium persulfate‚ K2S2O8‚ with potassium iodide‚ KI. All chemical reactions have an energy barrier to overcome before the reaction will proceed. We will record data based on the concentration‚ temperature and catalyst for each experiment. Once this has been completed it will be graphed. Procedure: Due to the chemicals being used having hazard gloves are used

Determination of the Concentration of Acetic Acid in Vinegar Lab Exercise 4 CHEM 1106 9/19/12 Purpose: Standardize a sodium hydroxide solution using a primary standard acid. Determine the molarity and the percent by mass of acetic acid in vinegar by titration with the standardized sodium hydroxide solution. Introduction: Vinegar is a dilute solution containing acetic acid. Since vinegar has a low pH‚ it can be titrated with a base. Titration is a method used in order to ascertain
