Chemical reactions are the basis of life on earth. As human beings‚ we are little more than the naturally abundant elements of which we are composed and the reactions between the compounds that they form. After all‚ how could life exist without water? Oxygen transport in a body the size of the human body would be impossible without the aid of a complex like hemoglobin. Besides being the basis of many of life’s intangibles‚ chemistry also plays an active role in our daily lives. Take for instance

Measuring Human Reaction Time Name: Prerna Mohan Date: November 3‚ 2017 Team members: Allison Fitzgerald‚ Isabella Federico 1. Objectives The objective of this lab is to measure each individual’s reaction time using a ruler. 2. Method and Equation: We will apply free fall kinematics to find our own reaction time. An object in free fall is an object in motion where gravity is the sole force acting upon it. If we drop an object from a certain distance‚ the object will experience constant

time it takes for the cross on the bottom of the beaker while the reaction is recurring to disappear. As it can be seen in the graph‚ the higher the temperature the shorter the time is for the Sulphur to be created. If it is looked as one continuous line‚ the first part of the trend line shows a steep‚ straight and constant decrease; then the 2nd part is not as steep and has a more gradual decline. Moreover‚ it shows how a reaction at 20°C a slower time for the cross to disappear compared to 40°C

There are many different ingredients in a kitchen that causes a chemical reaction with baking soda. This experiment was designed to test 4 kitchen ingredients(Omega oil‚ water‚ lemon juice‚ and vinegar) mixed with baking soda‚ to see which one will cause a balloon to expand. It was hypothesized that baking soda mixed with lemon juice and vinegar would cause the balloon to expand. Using these ideals the experiment was completed and the data was recorded. It was decided that the hypothesis was correct

THE CLASSIFICATION OF CHEMICAL REACTIONS Danny Bhatt SCH3U0-G Mr. Gandhi Wednesday‚ April 1st‚ 2014 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this lab is to determine the different types of chemical reactions and differentiate between them based on similar characteristics of each set category. In this lab it is hypothesized that every chemical reaction which was observed would fall under already set categories (that are: synthesis‚ decomposition‚ single displacement‚ double displacement‚ combustion and

Thermochemistry: An Ice Calorimeter Determination of Reaction Enthalpy D. F. Nachman 6/23/2010 Abstract: An ice calorimeter was used to study the reaction of magnesium metal and 1.00M sulfuric acid solution: Mg(s) + H2SO4(aq) →MgSO4(aq) + H2(g). We found the experimental molar enthalpy of reaction to be ΔH = –355 ± 17 kJ/mol at 0°C‚ 24% lower than the textbook value of ΔH° = –466.9 kJ/mol‚ reported at 25°C. Introduction Whether a chemical reaction occurs spontaneously or is driven by an outside force

Concentration vs Rate of reaction Brandon Introduction A reaction rate is the speed at which a chemical reaction will occur. Heat‚ concentration of a chemical‚ Surface area or a catalyst‚ will affect the rate of reaction. The concentration of a chemical will speed up of the reaction because the reactant particles have become more crowded therefore increasing the chance of productive collisions. In this practical the chemicals will be Sodium thiosulphate and Hydrochloric acid which will produce
