Measuring Human Reaction Time Name: Prerna Mohan Date: November 3‚ 2017 Team members: Allison Fitzgerald‚ Isabella Federico 1. Objectives The objective of this lab is to measure each individual’s reaction time using a ruler. 2. Method and Equation: We will apply free fall kinematics to find our own reaction time. An object in free fall is an object in motion where gravity is the sole force acting upon it. If we drop an object from a certain distance‚ the object will experience constant

the limiting reactant of a chemical reaction that involves iron filings and a copper sulfate solution. Second‚ to determine the mole ratios between iron and copper and to show that a single replacement reaction occurs when iron and copper sulfate react with each other. And lastly‚ to determine/calculate the percent yield to better analyze the chemical reaction between iron and copper sulfate to produce copper and iron sulfate. The method used to perform this lab will be to combine a metal with a solution

laboratory assignment 3 was to measure the rate at which a chemical reaction takes place. For the purpose of this lab we measured the rate a balanced oxidation/reduction reaction between iodine‚ hydrogen‚ and bromate ion occurs. The above reaction occurs slowly so we used a coupled iodine clock reaction to measure the rate of the oxidation/reduction reaction because it occurs much faster but is still dependent upon the other reaction. To accomplish this‚ two mixtures were prepared in separate Erlenmeyer

Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to determine the rate equation for the “Iodine Clock Reaction” experiment. The experiment will consider the equations 〖2I〗^-+S_2 O_8→2〖〖SO〗_4〗^(2-)+I_2 and I_2+2〖S_2 O_3〗^(2-)→2I^-+S_4 O_6 in order to determine the rate law of Rate=k[〖〖S_2 O_8〗^(2-)]〗^a 〖[I^-]〗^b by using the experimental data to calculate the values of exponents a and b as well as the rate constant k. Experimental Supplies Needed: 250 mL Erlenmeyer flask‚ 100 mL beaker‚ graduated

Abstract The experiment is to identify the guilty suspect that is present at the crime scene by comparing with the DNA samples. Polymerase Chain Reaction(PCR) is used to amplify the small amount of Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) for forensic or genetic studies‚ which require necessary product and placed in the thermal cycle. Gel electrophoresis is being run in order to analyze and compare the DNA samples at the crime scene with the guilty suspects. Gel electrophoresis is used to separate DNA using

The total protein content was estimated as proposed by Lowry et al. A bovine serum albumin stock solution (1mg/ml) was prepared in sodium hydroxide (1N). Five different concentrations (0.2‚ 0.4‚ 0.6‚ 0.8‚ 1 ml) of the prepared solution were taken in different test tubes. In another set of test tubes‚ 0.1 and 0.2 ml of the extract were taken. In each test tube‚ the volume was made up to 1 ml‚ followed by addition of the prepared alkaline solution (5 ml) at room temperature. The solutions were left

purpose of this lab was to find the theoretical and experimental percentage yields of the double displacement reaction between the solutions Lead (II) Nitrate (PbNO3) and Potassium Iodide (KI). It is important to obtain amounts of Lead (II) Nitrate and Potassium Iodide as close to 1.44g as possible. This reaction creates Lead (II) Iodide and Potassium Nitrate. The precipitate during this reaction is Lead (II) Iodide. The balanced equation is Pb(NO3)2 + 2KI= PbI2 + 2KNO3. In this lab the Lead (II) Iodide

Concentration vs Rate of reaction Brandon Introduction A reaction rate is the speed at which a chemical reaction will occur. Heat‚ concentration of a chemical‚ Surface area or a catalyst‚ will affect the rate of reaction. The concentration of a chemical will speed up of the reaction because the reactant particles have become more crowded therefore increasing the chance of productive collisions. In this practical the chemicals will be Sodium thiosulphate and Hydrochloric acid which will produce
