Observing a Limiting Reactant An experiment was carried out to predict the limiting reactant in a chemical reaction between Magnesium and Hydrochloric acid‚ using the mole concept. Limiting Reactant: It is the reactant that will deplete or will be used up first during a chemical reaction. Limiting reactant also determine how long the reaction will last for. Balanced Equation: Mg + 2HCl = MgCl2 + H2 The balanced equation is needed to determine the mole ratio between the two reactants. From

Experiment 7 INVESTIGATING STOICHIOMETRY WITH SODIUM SALTS OF CARBONIC ACID Introduction In this experiment we are going to get a better understanding of chemical stoichiometry. We are going to be reacting sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) and sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) with hydrochloric acid (HCl). To start off the mass of two unknown substances (being the sodium bicarbonate and sodium carbonate) will be taken. We will need to construct balanced equations for both of the reactants with the HCl and

BPK 310 – Assignment 1 UNIT 1 Question 1 (5 marks): Discuss the rate-limiting factor. Why is it important to consider when studying exercise physiology and training? Provide one example to clarify your understanding. The rate-limiting factor is the “step” that limits performances (the “slow step”). If we know the rate-limiting step in a certain physiological pathway or training situation‚ we can manipulate the factors of this step to change and increase the rate of the pathway. This will improve

Limiting Science Rough Draft #2 David Baltimore’s written work of Limiting Science: A Biologist’s Perspective discusses the controversy of research in molecular biology and its limitless freedom‚ disputing there should be freedom in which direction science heads‚ but the public should decide the pace at which it goes. Baltimore first begins his argument with the discussion of how molecular biology began. It was born from individual sciences where attempts at trying to solve the mysteries in these

Students’ Conceptual Understanding of Stoichiometry. Introduction Stoichiometry is one of the major concepts in chemistry. Conceptual understanding in stoichiometry is crucial for any student taking chemistry as a subject as many areas in chemistry are highly related to this conceptual understanding. Many previous researches found out that students poses a very low conceptual understanding and they also poses many alternative conception related to stoichiometry. Dahsah. C; Coll. R.

ions Reagent/ Condition; Reaction | Explanation | Oxygen supply; Combustion | Limited supply of oxygen: CO formed.Even less Oxygen: C is deposited as soot. Excess Oxygen: Complete combustion (giving CO2 and H2O) | Al2 O3 and vaporisation of alkane at 500°C; Cracking of Alkanes | Al2 O3 is used as a catalyst. Heat provides energy for breakage of C-C bonds. | UV light; Initiation step of FRS of alkanes by halogens * Not required for electrophilic addition reaction btw Halogens and alkenes

Limit The Use of Technology Over the past several years’ technology has advanced significantly. Nowadays most everything we use is done by some form of technology. Several years ago‚ we didn’t even have cellphones or the Internet‚ now we have cellphones that can access the Internet. This generation has become so dependent with technology that it is actually beginning to harm most us‚ not help us. So this leads us to believe one should limit his or her use of technology because it could cause addiction

Factors Limiting Photosynthesis The rate of photosynthesis increases with increasing light intensity. But too much light intensity can slow down the rate of photosynthesis because the light damages chloroplasts in the leaf. The higher the temperature the greater the rate of photosynthesis as photosynthesis is a chemical reaction and chemical reactions increase with temperature. But at temperatures above 40 C the rate slows down because the enzymes involved are destroyed
