up the rate of reaction without itself being used up in the process. Enzymes provide an alternate reaction pathway by lowering the activation energy needed for a reaction to occur. For two molecules to react they must collide with each other‚ however‚ they have to collide with sufficient energy. Sufficient energy means that between them they have enough energy to overcome the energy barrier to reaction. This is called the activation energy. Even though enzymes can alter the rate of reaction‚ they

millilitres of HCL with 2 grams of sodium chloride had the highest conductivity rate compared to the second most conductive solution‚ 50 milliliters of vinegar with 2 grams of sodium chloride‚ and the last conductive solution‚ 50 milliliters of distilled water with 2 grams of sodium chloride. In my first hypothesis I stated if I added sodium chloride to distilled water‚ than the overall conductivity will become more conductive than just distilled water‚ since the sodium chloride will break down into it’s

factors affecting the rate of a chemical reaction. Introduction: In my coursework I will be mainly concentrating on the reaction between dilute hydrochloric acid with marble chips (calcium carbonate). Calcium carbonate (marble chips) + hydrochloric acid ==> calcium chloride + water + carbon dioxide CaCO3(s) + 2HCl (aq) ==> CaCl2 (aq) + H2O (l) + CO2 (g) Aim: The aim of the experiment is to investigate how the concentration of hydrochloric acid affects the rate of reaction with marble chips‚

Concentration of a Reactant Can Affect the Rate of Reaction Aim To plan an investigation that allows me to measure the effect of increasing the concentration of a reactant on the rate of reaction. With the results generated‚ it is also hoped to draw accurate conclusions and explain the results using scientific knowledge. Introduction Some reactions are fast‚ for example neutralisation or burning magnesium in air to produce magnesium oxide. However‚ other reactions can be slow‚ for example‚ rusting of

Prior to begin the experiment‚ preparation for some solutions is required to enhance the lab performance. The solutions needed are standardized potassium bromate‚ standardized sodium thiosulfate‚ and starch indicator. First‚ to prepare a starch indicator‚ pulverize 1g of soluble starch and add 15mL of water to make it as a paste-like substance. Dilute it with about 500mL of boiling water‚ and continue to heat until the mixture becomes clear. Cool it to room temperature and save it into a stoppered

Factors Affecting Reaction Rate Bob Jones Josh October 2‚ 2014 Period 3 Introduction: In reference to the collision theory‚ molecules act as small spheres that collide and bounce off each other‚ transferring energy among themselves when the collide. In order for a reaction to occur‚ there must be collisions between molecules. Through experimentation‚ factors are discovered that influence the reaction rates of chemical reactions include the concentration

12-STANDARDIZATION OF SODIUM HYDROXIDE Standard solutions for titrations are especially pure mixtures with exactly known concentrations. Primary standards are very pure solids. They have the advantage that they can be weighed (the analytical balance is normally the most accurate instrument in the laboratory) and they are stable under laboratory conditions. In this experiment‚ the primary standard is oxalic acid dihydrate‚ H2C2O4 ( 2H2O. It will be used to standardize a solution of sodium hydroxide

Cu-Zn voltaic cell used in the experiment. Zinc has higher reactivity and it is more likely to loss electrons. Thus‚ electrons flow from Zn electrode to Cu electrode. Copper stripe is the positive electrode. Zinc stripe is the negative electrode. Reaction happened on each terminal: Positive terminal: Zn-2e-→Zn2+ Negative terminal: 2H+2e-→H2 It is assumed that bubbles (hydrogen gas) will come out from copper electrode. It is assumed that zinc and copper stripes are pure. Classification of variables

How did the amount of Sodium Citrate‚ an anticoagulant‚ added to a Calcium Chloride solution affect the volume of the clots formed when a sodium alginate solution‚ a blood simulation‚ was introduced? Mackenzie Keesor (Fall Semester 2017-2018) Purpose The purpose of this experiment was to observe the differences in the formation of simulated blood clots when different amounts of sodium citrate‚ an anticoagulant‚ was added to the coagulation process‚ which would help gain information about the process

The reaction rate of a chemical reaction is determined as the change in the concentration of a reactant or product over the change in time. [1] The rate of a reaction is determined by experiment. Many factors influence the rate of a reaction: the nature of the reaction‚ concentration‚ pressure‚ temperature‚ and surface area‚ presence of catalyst and intensity of light. [2] For a chemical reaction‚ the rate law or rate equation is a mathematical expressed equation that links the reaction rate with
