Abstract We performed two trials of nine different variables of reactions to determine what increases/decreases reaction rates. The variables we used are hot/cold and room temperature water‚ a equal mixture of HCL and water‚ A equal mixture of NaOH and water‚ either a whole‚ broken‚ or finely crushed Alka-seltzer tablet. The fastest rate average was at 0.04 s (finely crushed Alka-seltzer with room temp. water). The slowest rate average is 8.02 s (Alka-seltzer with cold water). Introduction

research the chemistry behind a chemical reaction that is used in automobiles. Write a page that explains what the reaction is‚ where it occurs in the car‚ and what it does for the car. There are over one billion of cars around the world‚ getting people where they want to go. Therefore‚ automobile transportation became much more important in everyone’s daily life. Chemistry made the automobiles to work. The chemistry and chemical reactions used in many parts of the automobiles. The role of chemistry

Endothermic Reactions of Cold Packs An instant cold pack is a device that is made up of two bags; one containing water‚ and an inside bag containing ammonium nitrate. Have you ever wondered how people use hot packs to warm up their hands in the winter or use cold packs on a real terrible injury? How can this package produce heat or cold by only shaking or crushing those packs? Ammonium nitrate is a chemical compound that is a white crystalline solid used as fertilizer and as a part of explosives

Chemical Reaction of copper compounds Introduction: In this experiment‚ the objective was to conduct a series of chemical reactions that contain copper or copper compounds. That is to say that the products of each chemical reaction were used in the next reaction. The process starts with a solid copper wire dissolved in nitric acid and the end product is copper powder. The product which was used from the previous reaction is the limiting. In the initial step‚ the solid copper is the limiting reactant

Reaction of catalase with hydrogen peroxide AIM: I aim to find the rate of reaction between catalase and hydrogen peroxide. Enzymes such as Catalase are protein molecules that are found in living cells. They are used to speed up specific reactions in the cells. Each enzyme just performs one particular reaction so they are all very specific. Catalase enzymes found in living cells e.g. in yeast‚ potato or liver‚ speed up (in our case) the breaking down of hydrogen peroxide. The lock and key analogy…

Chemestry Lab Rates of Reaction (Picture from: http://sciencespot.net/Pages/kdzchem.html) The rate of reaction is how fast or slow a reaction is completed. This is important for factories and chemists all over the world. What happenes during a reaction is atoms or molecules that collide and form new molecules. You can affect this rate of reaction with: temperature of reactants or suroundings‚ surface area of reactants‚ if there is a catalyst present‚ but in theis lab the concentration was changed

Chemical Reaction: Cold Packs CHM110 Chemical Reaction: Cold Packs Introduction Chemical reactions happen every day in a variety of ways. We will explore the science behind cold packs and the chemical reactions that happen at the molecular level. Furthermore‚ we will examine and explain what chemical bonds are formed‚ broken‚ or both. The product is a simple construct of two bags: one containing water (solvent) and the other a chemical compound called ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3). In order to activate

Purpose Determine which kinds of reactions involve electron transfer as the driving force. Background Redox (reduction-oxidation) reactions include all chemical reactions in which atoms have their oxidation state changed. So‚ when a metal and a nonmetal react‚ there is an ionic bond formed‚ which means one of them loses electrons while the other gains them. Since this reaction involves the exchange of electrons it is termed as a redox reaction. The oxidation states in a metal- nonmetal are simple

CONCLUSION The experimentally obtained data collected for the reaction between IO3- and HSO3- at various temperatures is clearly supported by the Arrhenius equation. Referring to Graph 1.7‚ the line of best fits clearly passes through most of the data points displaying a linear relationship between temperature and the rate of the reaction. The R-squared of the graph which is a statistical measure of how close the data are to the fitted regression line is 0.9818. This number is extremely low which

Experiment 5: Wittig Reaction Purpose The purpose of this experiment is to synthesize trans-9-(2-phenylethenyl) anthracene using a wittig reagent formed by reacting phosphonium chloride with base. Experimental In a reaction tube‚ (0.200g) benzyltriphenyl phosphonium chloride‚ (0.115g) anthraaldehyde‚ and (.6ml) dichloromethane (DCM) is mixed together with a stir bar. We stirred the mixture rapidly and added (0.26ml) of a 50% NaOH solution dropwise. The mixture was stirred for 20-30
