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.

Changing the Rate of Reaction PART 1: PARTICLE SIZE Question: How does changing the particle size of marble (CaCO3) affect the rate of reaction when it is added to hydrochloric acid (HCl)? Hypothesis: If I change the particle size of marble to test how to change the rate of a chemical reaction‚ than the chemical reaction with the smallest marble particles will produce CO2 the quickest because the larger the surface area‚ the more place the hydrochloric acid will have to collide with the marble

Antacid tablets are used to relieve heartburn and neutralise stomach acid. Planning Aim To determine how the surface area of the tablets affects the rate of the reaction. To determine which form of tablets gives the biggest surface area resulting in the fastest reaction rate. Investigation question: What is the relationship between the total surface area of the tablets and the rate of the reaction? Hypothesis: The rate of reaction will be the fastest when the tablets crushed into powder as there

Once Upon a Time by Gabriel OkaraOnce upon a time‚ son‚they used to laugh with their heartsand laugh with their eyes:but now they only laugh with their teeth‚while their ice-block-cold eyessearch behind my shadow.There was a time indeedthey used to shake hands with their hearts:but that’s gone‚ son.Now they shake hands without heartswhile their left hands searchmy empty pockets.‘Feel at home!’ ‘Come again’:they say‚ and when I comeagain and feelat home‚ once‚ twice‚there will be no thrice-for then

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

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
