Affecting Rates of Chemical Reactions Prepared By: Kelly Gunter For: Ms. Brohman Course: SCH-4U Introduction The main purpose of this lab was to investigate how temperature‚ concentration‚ the addition of catalysts‚ and the substitution of a more reactive reactant‚ can affect the reaction. The collision theory explains that in order for a reaction to occur‚ reacting particles must collide with one another. An effective collision makes reactants result in a reaction and for to be successful

AbstractThe rates of reaction of Alkali metals and Alkaline Earth meatals are compared in this lab. The pH of each of the resulting metal solutions are tested and the products of the reaction between calcium and water is discovered. The tested elements are sodium‚ lithium‚ potassium and calcium and each of them were placed in a beaker filled with water. The resulting solutions pH levels were tested with litmus paper. There were more steps for caclium because it is the only Alkaline Earth metal. For

energy needed for chemical reactions. The two main environmental factors that can affect the enzyme’s activity are temperature and pH‚ and each enzyme works best at a particular temperature and pH. The purpose of this enzyme kinetic experiment was to observe the effect of temperature and pH on the reaction of barley alpha-amylase enzyme with starch substrate and establish the optimum temperature and pH for this reaction. The optimum temperature and pH for the reaction of alpha-amylase and starch

Diels-Alder Reaction: Synthesis of cis-Norbornene-5‚ 6-endo-dicarboxylic anhydride Introduction: The Diels-Alder reaction is a [4+2] cycloaddition of a conjugated diene and a dienophile. This type of reaction was named for Otto Diels and Kurt Alder who were the first to investigate this reaction (Weldegirma‚ 2012). The Diels- Alder reaction is one of the most important reactions in all of organic chemistry because of the applicability of it. This reaction can form new

An investigation to compare the reaction rates between potato and hydrogen peroxide against liver and hydrogen peroxide through loss in mass. Background information: Catalase is an enzyme that is found in all cells. This means that it is an intracellular enzyme. And enzyme is a biological catalyst. A catalyst is some thing that speeds up a reaction without being changed itself. Because of this enzymes and catalysts can be used again and again. Enzymes are protein chains that have a primary‚ secondary

Title: Experiment 17‚ Reaction kinetics – Determination of the activation energy of the reaction between oxalic acid and potassium permanganate. Objective: To determine the activation energy of the reaction between oxalic acid and potassium permanganate. Introduction: Chemical kinetics is the study of chemical reaction rates‚ how reaction rates are controlled and the pathway or mechanism by which a reaction proceeds from its reactants to its products. Reaction rates vary from the very fast‚ which

Introduction In this chemical reaction‚ the magnesium will dissolve in the hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen gas. This is because magnesium is higher than hydrogen in the reactivity series. Therefore‚ when the two reactants are combined‚ a displacement reaction occus and the magnesium displaces the hydrogen‚ forming magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas. Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) -> MgCl 2 (aq) + H 2 (g) Magnesium + Hydrochloric acid -> Magnesium Chloride + Hydrogen
