Determination of Rate and Order of a Reaction Results This experiment used a spectrometer to find the wavelength with maximum absorbance in a green food coloring solution. For this particular solution the wavelength was 629.7 nm. The system was then calibrated to that and was set to measure the food coloring and bleach solution. The measured visible light absorbance of the mixed solution was collected over a time of 200 seconds and eight points were then selected and placed into the Absorbance

Defining the problem and selecting variables In this lab‚ we will be studying the difference of heart rate between boys and girls. There are many things that can increase heart rate‚ such as exercise‚ drinking coffee‚ taking certain pills‚ drinking an energy drink‚ feeling a strong emotion‚ etc. I have chosen to use exercise as a means of increasing the heart rate of my subjects‚ more precisely‚ 20 sit-ups. There are many reasons why your heart rate increases when you exercise‚ the most important one

The purpose of this lab was to use a calorimeter to learn when energy is being released or absorbed in a chemical reaction. My lab partner and I had to determine the heat exchanged when solid magnesium hydroxide is mixed with solid citric acid‚ using a coffee cup calorimeter. Given that citric acid is soluble in water is the property that makes this reaction possible. The first law of thermodynamics and Hess’s law are also present within this experiment. Knowing the difference between endothermic

Aim: The rate at which a reaction occurs‚ or takes place‚ is affected by various factors‚ such as the temperature at which the experiment is conducted in‚ the pressure which is given‚ the surface area which is exposed‚ use of catalysts‚ and the concentration. In this investigation‚ I would be investigating the affect of surface area‚ or particle size‚ in the rate at which a reaction occurs. Background Information: The more finely divided the solid is‚ the faster the reaction happens. A powdered

Analysis of a Chemical Reaction Purpose: To observe a chemical reaction and to use qualitative and quantitative evidence to identify this reaction from among four possibilities. Hypothesis: I think the result is going to produce water. I think this is going to happen because there is hydrogen and oxygen inNaHCO3. Materials: -Test tube clamp - 150 mm test tubes (2) - burner - retort stand - clay triangle - iron ring - crucible Procedure: Part A: 1. Add 0.5 g of NaHCO3

Bags of Reactions * Problem/Purpose * Background Information: The Law of Conservation of Mass was created by Antoine Lavoisier in the 18th century. This law stated that mass could matter could neither be created nor destroyed. During a reaction the bonds of the reactants are broken and form new substances. As stated in the Law of Conservation‚ matter can neither be created nor destroyed; because of this the products should have the same number and type of atoms as seen in the reactants

Lab Report: Toothpickase and Enzymes September 19‚ 2012 Olivia DePhillips Lab Partner: Joy Morgan Meyers Signature: Introduction Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions‚ the molecules at the beginning of the process‚ called substrates‚ are converted into different molecules‚ called products. Almost all chemical reactions in a biological cell need enzymes in order to occur at rates sufficient for life. Like all catalysts‚ enzymes work

The effect of temperature on a reaction rate In this experiment I shall be investigating how temperature affects the rate of reaction Rates of reaction The Factors that affect the rate of reaction are temperature‚ surface area‚ concentration‚ catalysts‚ light and pressure Surface area – Surface area is the amount of solid surface that is available for reaction - Only affects solids so this will not affect our

Title: Effect of a Catalyst on Reaction Rate II. Introduction: The basis of the experiment is the enzyme; an enzyme is a biological molecule that acts as a highly selective catalyst. By combining with a substrate‚ an enzyme is able to create a new product that helps the body function. (Ex. Lactose/Lactase) A substrate is a molecule an enzyme acts upon‚ the two combine at an area called an active site. This active site allows induced fit which allows the reaction to occur and a new product to be
