Ashley Silva Lab 7: Three Stooges in Chemical Reactions Objective: The purpose of this lab is to experimentally determine the equilibrium constant‚ Kc ‚ for the following chemical reaction: Fe3+ (aq) + SCN-(aq) ↔FeSCN2+(aq) Background Information: A system is at equilibrium when the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the reverse reaction. There is no change in concentration for the reactants or products at chemical equilibrium. When the system is disturbed there

DATE PERFORMED: JULY 20‚ 2007 SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC DETERMINATION OF EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT FOR A REACTION ABSTRACT UV-VIS spectrophotometry is one of the most widely-used methods for determining and identifying many inorganic species. During this experiment‚ this spectrophotometry was used to determine the equilibrium constant‚ Keq‚ of the Fe3+(aq)+SCN-(aq)↔ FeSCN2+(aq) reaction. By determining the amount of light absorbed‚ the concentration of the colored FeSCN2+ solution was also quantitatively

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

The rate of a chemical reaction is usually proportional to the concentration of the reactants. As it is the hydrogen ions that

SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC DETERMINATION OF EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT OF A REACTION UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES‚ DILIMAN QUEZON CITY‚ PHILIPPINES August 2‚ 2013 ABSTRACT The objective of this experiment is to determine the equilibrium constant‚ denoted Keq‚ for the formation of [Fe(SCN)]2+ complex which is a product of the reaction between the ions Fe3+ and SCN-. In performing this experiment‚ solutions containing FeCl3 and KSCN‚ diluted in HCl‚ were measured for their absorbance using a UV-Vis

PURPOSE: In this experiment we will study the rate of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to form oxygen according to the net equation: 2H2O2 (aq) 2H2O(l) + O2 by measuring the rate at which oxygen evolved‚ we will investigate how the rate changes with varying initial concentrations of hydrogen peroxide and iodide catalyst. After we will study the affect of changing its concentration the rate oxygen evolution. At the end of experiment we

The reaction rate can be studied by measuring the time taken for sufficient quantity of yellow sulfur to be formed. Over time‚ a ‘’cross’’ marked on a piece of paper under the conical flask gradually disappears when viewed from above. 1 time taken for the ‘’cross’’ to disappear because the amount of sulfur formed is considered fixed. To study the order of reaction‚ the experiment is repeated by varying the concentration of each of the reactants (Na2S2O3

Specifically‚ this experiment was performed using a series of solutions with varying concentrations of KI‚ Na2S2O3‚ and (NH4)2S2O3 . Students recorded time elapsed to observe physical evidence of a reaction taking place in a solution. The time elapsed during the reaction was recorded during the experiment‚ while the rate (M/sec)‚ reaction constant‚ and activation
