Summary This experiment will measure the rate of oxidation of iodide ions by persulphate ions to derive the rate law for the reaction. Starch will be added to the reaction to facilitate the measure of time during the reaction. The reactant solutions will contain (NH4)2SO4 and KI‚ represented as: (NH4)2S2O8 + 2KI -> I2 + (NH4)2SO4 + K2SO4 This can be simplified to: S2O82- + 2I- -> I2 + 2SO42- These equations can only be carried out and be visible after the iodine has completely

Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions The release of energy in chemical reactions occurs when the reactants have higher chemical energy than the products. The chemical energy in a substance is a type of potential energy stored within the substance. This stored chemical potential energy is the heat content or enthalpy of the substance. The collection of substances that is involved in a chemical reaction is referred to as a system and anything else around it is called the surroundings. If the enthalpy

the reactivity of various metals Testing Relative Oxidizing and Reducing Strengths of Metal Atoms and Ions By observing whether reactions occur between solid metals and metal ions in solution‚ you can determine the order of oxidizing and reducing agents according to strength. Question How can the presence or absence of a reaction provide information about the relative strength of oxidizing and reducing agents?

Project Page is designed to help you think about your investigation. It is not intended to be a set of instructions for practical work and does not include a list of safety precautions. CHEMISTRY REVIEW accepts no responsibility if Project Page is used in any way as a set of instructions. Clock reactions If you choose a project that explores the kinetics of a chemical reaction you will need a way of measuring the rate of the reaction. Clock reactions provide an interesting way of doing this for

Section: 9 - Malaya Topic: Types of Chemical Reaction A chemical reaction is a process that is usually characterized by a chemical change in which the starting materials (reactants) are different from the products. Chemical reactions tend to involve the motion of electrons‚ leading to the formation and breaking of chemical bonds. There are several different types of chemical reactions and more than one way of classifying them. Here are some common reaction types. However‚ if you are asked to name the

Aim During this experiment I will be investigating if heating limestone and changing the concentration of the acid will affect the rate of reaction. Preliminary work Before doing our main experiment‚ we will have to conduct another experiment‚ to see what concentration of acid we will have to use. We done this using 0.1M‚ 0.5M and 1M of Hydrochloric acid‚ and 0.1g of powdered limestone‚ we used powdered limestone‚ as it would be a fairer test‚ I think this as all the particles of limestone will

Reaction Rate Coursework Aim To see how the concentration of a reactant affects the rate of reaction‚ in this case sodium thiosulphate and acid. Scientific Background For a reaction to occur‚ the particles of the reactants must be colliding with each other with enough energy‚ the amount of energy needed for the reaction is called activation energy. Activation energy is altered by temperature‚ concentration‚ surface area of and the pressure on the reactants. Stirring the reactants also increases

energy and heat associated with chemical reactions and/or physical transformations. A reaction may release or absorb energy‚ and a phase may change‚ such as in melting and boiling. Thermochemistry focuses on these energy changes‚ particularly on the system ’s energy exchange with its surroundings. In combination with entropy determinations‚ it is used to predict whether a reaction is spontaneous or non-spontaneous‚ favourable or unfavourable. Chemical reactions can be divided into two based on the

Experiment 1 Simple Reaction Time Abstract Summary The Research Instructor conducted an experiment about Simple Reaction Time. The Subject hold the timer while the Experimenter gave a go signal‚ and the Subject started the timer and shared stories. The Recorder used a cell phone to track the time. The Subject was not able to see the timer‚ and also the data that was being recorded. This was performed forty-five trials. Afterwards‚ the Experimenter and the Subject switched roles and performed ten
