of Marble chips and Hydrochloric acid Aim: We will measure the loss in mass of the marble chips (CaCO 3 ) as it reacts with Hydrochloric acid (HCl). This one method of measuring the rate of reaction. We will use a balance to measure this mass loss as the reactants are used up to form product. Safety: * As Hydrochloric acid is corrosive wear a lab coat‚ gloves and safety goggles. * Take care when using the glassware not to cut yourself. * When the reaction is taking place Carbon

Biology coursework How does the temperature affect the rate of reaction? Introduction For our experiments‚ I was investigating what affects the rate of reaction. We used Hydrogen peroxide to test the rate of reaction‚ with the temperature of this being our variable that we changed. Hydrogen peroxide is a clear‚ colourless liquid which has various amounts of uses within the laboratory‚ industrial purposes and even in our households. It is mainly used for cleaning products and hair dye but is

Investigating the Effect of Concentration on the Rate of Enzyme Catalysed Reaction To investigate the effect of concentration on the rate of enzyme catalysed reaction I must know all the factors that affect it in order to investigate in this. Here are all the factors: Temperature- Enzyme like it warm but not too hot. Enzymes are biological catalysts‚ which speed up chemical reactions. They work most efficiently at the optimum point (37°C). If they are below 37°C they will work

Chemistry Coursework Rates of Reaction Investigation Introduction In this investigation I am going to be investigating the reaction between marble chips and hydrochloric acid‚ and to see what differences in the rate of this reaction arise when different concentrations of acid are used. Below is the word equation for this reaction: Calcium Carbonate + Hydrochloric Acid = Calcium Chloride + Carbon Dioxide + Water Below is the fully balanced chemical equation for this reaction.

Aim: This experiment will aim to show how the amount of substrate affects the rate of the reaction. Hypothesis: In this experiment I think the amount of substrate will simply increase the reaction. As I increase the surface area of the potato the gas given off from the reaction will increase. Therefore to sum things up‚ my hypothesis is when the Independent variable increases so will the dependant variable. Independent variable: - Surface area of potato Dependant variable: - Gas Controlled

of starch to produce sugars such as maltose (Sherwood‚ 2013). When testing the effect of the salivary amylase concentration‚ we observed that the solution containing the most saliva (3ml)‚ become colourless faster than the solution which contained the least saliva (1ml). This proves that an increase in enzyme concentration (increase in saliva)‚ will cause an increase in the reaction rate (Bennett and Frieden‚ 1969).

react with hydrochloric acid; and 1 cm3 of element X has a mass of 1.8 grams. Is element X a metal or non-metal? Give the reasons for your answer. Element X is most likely a typical non-metal. First of all‚ element X melts in boiling water; non-metals typically have low melting and boiling points. Furthermore‚ element X is unable to react with hydrochloric acid. This greatly indicates that element X is a non-metal as most non-metals fail to react with hydrochloric or dilute acids. In order

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

Testing the effect of concentration on rate of reaction Plan: We are investigating the effect of nitric acid on calcium carbonate. We are doing this experiment‚ as we would like to understand the effect that acid rain has on limestone. We also want to understand how acid can have an effect on rate of reaction. The word equation for the reaction that will take place is: Calcium Carbonate + Nitric Acid Calcium Nitrate + Carbon Dioxide + Water The balanced symbol equation
