Heats of Reaction Lab Report Purpose: To measure the heats of reaction for three related exothermic reactions and to verify Hess’s Law of Heat Summation. NaOH(s) ( Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) ΔH = -10.6kcal/mol NaOH(s) + H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ( H2O + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ΔH = -23.9kcal/mol Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) + H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ( H2O + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ΔH = -13.3kcal/mol Background: Energy changes occur in all chemical reactions; energy is either absorbed or released. If energy is released in

Introduction We are going to do an experiment to see how surface area effects the rate of reaction when added to hydrochloric acid. I will add calcium carbonate (marble chips) to hydrochloric acid. When calcium carbonate is added to hydrochloric acid a reaction takes place. The solution fizzes and gives off the gas carbon dioxide. I will collect this gas in a gas syringe and will time how long it takes for the reaction to produce 100cm3 of carbon dioxide. CaCO3 +2HCL Co2 +CaCl2 +H2O CalciumHydrochloricCarbonCalciumWater

The effect of increasing substrate concentration on rate of an enzyme reaction. Enzymes are biological catalysts that lower a reactions activation energy making possible many of the reactions needed for life to exist. Enzymes have a high specificity which have been explained by many theories such as Fischer’s lock and key. Currently the most widely accepted theory is the induced fit hypothesis proposed by Koshland in 1958. This hypothesis solves some of the problems with the Lock and key theory

Aim: To determine a value for the spring’s force constant‚ k. Introduction: Hooke’s Law indicates the relationship between the amount of extension‚ e‚ of a spring to the size of the force‚ F‚ acing on it. This relationship may be written as :- F = ke F = ke where k is a constant for which particular spring you are using. It is the force constant of the spring. * The force applying on the spring‚ F‚ is denoted by Newton in SI Units. (N) * The amount of extension of the spring

Reagan. All my life I have been surrounded by the law. Sirens blaring up the country road‚ policeman coming to my home‚ and seeing it all broken and messed up on the TV. There was not one day that would go by‚ when I couldn’t just get up for another school day and see that people were actually trying to be nice and make a difference‚ it seemed like all I ever saw was hatred. My sister and I would stay up late just to watch CSI Miami and Law and Order. We would each try to figure out if that person

Step 1: Pb (NO3) 2 (aq) + CaCl2 (aq) PbCl2 (aq) + Ca (NO3) 2 (aq) (double displacement reaction) According to the solubility guidelines lead (II) chloride (PbCl2) is a possible precipitate. This is because even though most chlorides are soluble‚ lead chloride is considered insoluble (p.2‚ Lesson 17). Step 2: PbCl2 ↔ Pb2+ + 2Cl- Q = [Pb2+] [Cl-] 2 Step 3: Ksp = 1.2 x 10-5 (from table 17.1‚ p.5) Step 4: V2 = 20.0 mL (volume of Pb (NO3)2) + 45.0 mL (volume of CaCl2) = 65.0

to determine the rate constants‚ k1‚ for the methyl acetate hydrolysis reaction at 25 °C and 35 °C‚ as well as the overall activation energy of the reaction. Methods Methyl acetate was placed in an HCl solution‚ in which it reacts with water to form acetic acid over time. At each time interval‚ an aliquot of the mixture was removed for titration against NaOH to determine the concentration of the acetic acid produced. From the amount of acetic acid produced overtime‚ the rate constant‚ k1‚ can

In class we decided that the rate of a reaction increases when there are more collisions or when the activation energy is reduced. We then determined that there were four ways to increase the reaction rate: increase temperature‚ add a catalyst‚ increase surface area‚ and increase the concentration of reactants. The objective of this lab was to experimentally show how temperature and surface area impact the rate of reaction‚ so only two of these methods were tested. The evidence indicates that increasing
