Lithium‚Sodium‚Potassium‚Rubidium‚Caesium and Francium are all part of group 1.They are metals that can be easily cut.After being cut‚it is shiny but it quickly tarnishes due to the fact that the metal reacts quickly with oxygen or water.The shiny surfaces of Sodium quickly tarnishes more quickly than Lithium and Potassium more tarnishes more quickly than Lithium.This shows that the reactivity increases as we move down the group.

the Rate of Reaction Between HCl and Sodium Thiosulfate Chemistry Lab report Aim: The aim of this experiment is to determine how concentrations of HCl acid affect the rate of reaction when reacted with Sodium Thiosulfate (Na2S2O3). This experiment would require measuring the mass of the reaction over a period of time to be able to determine the rate of the reaction. Safety Precautions: In this experiment‚ SO2 gas is produced from the reaction between Sodium Thiosulfate and HCl‚ and this can be dangerous

The global market for biosurfactants is expected to reach USD 2‚308.8 million by 2020‚ according to a new study by Grand View Research‚ Inc. Escalating consumer preference towards the use of bio-based products‚ particularly in Europe and North America is expected to increase biosurfactant penetration. In addition‚ stringent regulatory policies are further expected to augment the biosurfactant demand over the next six years. Methyl Ester Sulfonate (MES) was the largest consumed biosurfactant‚ accounting

whether different amounts of a particular chemical would affect the action potential. 7. Why does the addition of sodium chloride elicit an action potential? Hint: Think about the sodium permeability of the neuron (Figure 3.2e). The addition of sodium chloride will increase the sodium ion concentration outside the cell membrane. The sodium channels will open allowing sodium ions to enter the cell in hopes of equilibrium (depolarization). The cell will balance this polarity and pump

Reaction.’ The rate of the reaction will be measured by timing the reaction between Hydrogen Peroxide‚ Potassium iodide‚ and Sodium Thiosulphate. Sodium Thiosulphate is used as a delaying mechanism as the reaction between the two main reactants is too rapid to measure. The Sodium Thiosulphate will react with the Iodine [III] ions (the product) first and when the all the Sodium Thiosulphate has reacted‚ then the remaining Iodine ions will form a blue-black solution because of the addition of Starch
