Properties of Chemical Reactions Ms. Whitty‚ Science 10 Fiona Adams‚ November 1st‚ 2012 Introduction Chemical reactions are a part of our daily lives‚ from rusting metal to making bread to leaves changing colour in the fall. A chemical reaction is the process that occurs when two or more substances combine to produce a chemical change. When a chemical reaction takes place‚ the change is indicated by one or more qualitative properties. The colour or odor could change‚ gas could be produced

The Effect of Stimulus Type on Reaction Time Katelin Wagoner Anderson University Abstract Previous studies on reaction time have examined the effects of different kinds of stimuli; this experiment specifically tests reaction time in response to auditory and visual stimuli. The common belief is that an auditory stimulus is faster than visual stimuli. There were 23 participants; 95% were Caucasian‚ with six males and 17 females. This experiment required participants to respond to either an

Grignard reaction Abstract: In this laboratory‚ triphenylmethanol was synthesised from reacting benzophenone and bromobenzene using Grignard reaction. As the reaction was to set up to produce a Grignard reagent and then recrystallize it to obtain pure sample. The percentage yield obtained was 55% and its melting point was 161 co which is within the literature value 160-163 co. In addition to that the IR spectroscopy confirmed the molecule structure to be triphenylmethanol. Introduction: The Grignard

The Effect of pH on Enzymatic Reaction Rate Abstract Enzymes are affected by changes in pH. The most favorable pH value— the point where the enzyme is most active—is known as the optimum pH. This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of pH reaction rate on an enzyme‚ catalase‚ from yeast. The experimental results indicate that the catalase worked best at a neutral pH level of seven (7). Introduction An enzyme is a protein molecule that serves as a catalyst. “The basic function of

Ionic Reactions Results B - Do your results agree with your expectations from the solubility rules/table? Our results seemed to largely agree with the established solubility rules/table; however‚ a few reactions with the commonality of being mixed with Co(NO3)2 (cobalt nitrate) [reference Row A‚ Columns 2‚ 3‚ and 4] seemed to have such a pale pink tone that it was difficult to decide whether that could have been a precipitate or the lighting in the area where the experiment took place.

Bowens Reaction Series Mineral occurrence in igneous rock is most simply explained by Bowen’s reaction series. Norman Levi Bowen discovered the series of reactions while studying the process of crystallizing minerals in Washington‚ D.C. in 1928. In order to best express his findings to his scientific brethren‚ Bowen created a visual display based on when and under what conditions each silicate mineral crystallized. This is extremely important to geologists because it helps them to easily understand

Dystonic Reaction Dystonia is a condition that makes your muscles contract without warning (muscle spasms). It can cause unwanted jerking of muscle groups that can be uncomfortable. This condition is rarely life threatening. CAUSES A dystonic reaction is most often a side effect to a particular medicine. These reactions occur when the normal patterns of the nerve receptors are upset by a particular medicine and the imbalance causes multiple types of muscle spasm. This condition may also be caused

ADVERSE DRUG REACTIONS Lecture by Dr.Shehla Shaheen Adverse effect is a harmful and undesired effect resulting from the administration of a therapeutic dose of a drug. OTHER WORDS USED SYNONYMOUSLY; SIDE EFFECTS TOXIC EFFECTS HARMFUL EFFECTS UNDESIRABLE EFFECTS All drugs can produce harmful as well as beneficial effects. ADRs are either related or unrelated to the principal pharmacological actions of the drugs Adverse effects are of great concern to drug regulatory authorities.
