Biology 104 Reaction Times Objectives: 1. Formulate and test hypotheses regarding reaction times. Introduction: Reaction time is a measure of how quickly an organism can respond to a particular stimulus. Reaction time has been widely studied‚ as its practical implications may be of great consequence‚ e.g. a slower than normal reaction time while driving can have grave results. Many factors have been shown to affect reaction times‚ including age‚ gender‚ physical fitness‚ fatigue‚ distraction

Reactions in Aqueous Solutions: Metathesis Reactions and Net Ionic Equations Introduction: Metathesis or double decomposition reactions are a reaction in which two compounds react to form two new compounds‚ with no changes in oxidation number. The ions of two compounds exchange partners. AX + BY AY + BX This reaction can occur between two inorganic salts when one product is insoluble in water‚ driving the reaction forward. A typical example is as followed and is considered a molecular equation

Coupled Reactions ABSTRACT A way to drive a non-spontaneous reaction forward is by coupling it with another reaction that is highly spontaneous‚ resulting to a spontaneous overall reaction. In this study‚ since the extraction of C(s) from CO2(s) is a non-spontaneous process‚ it was coupled with the oxide formation reaction of Mg‚ a reaction with high spontaneity‚ so that the process of the extraction of C(s) would proceed. The reactions and products which were a mix of black and white

experiment‚ equilibrium will be examines in the reaction beteween the iron (III) ion and the thiocyanate ion: Fe3+ (aq) + SCN- (aq) ------ FeSCN2+ (aq) The FeSCN2+ complex ion has a blood red color while the iron and the thiocyanate ion are colorless. Therefore‚ the shift in the reaction can followed by noting a change in the intensity of the clood red color‚ which indicates a change in the concentration of the complex ion FeSCN2+. If the reaction shifts to the right‚ the blood red color will get

The Wittig reaction is a unique reaction that can be carried out in various ways as our prompt exemplifies. We will be primary focusing on the second of the three schemes. In The usual formation of an ylide occurs via Sn2 attack of a PR3 group on an alkyl halide‚ which is then followed by a strong base deprotonating of one of the hydrogens on the methyl which the PR3 attacked. Before we dive into the details of the reaction occurring in scheme 2 it will be important to understand the mechanism which

The comedy Tartuffe‚ written by Jean-Babtiste Moliere‚ is undoubtedly a satire; the question is what is the poem a satire of: the Catholic religion itself‚ or the hypocrites within the Church and their corruption? I believe the latter to be the focus of Moliere’s commentary. It is apparent throughout Tartuffe that Moliere has an admiration for religion‚ as practiced by genuinely pious and humble individuals. Cleante is a character who personifies rationality throughout the play. His character

develops each. The play Tartuffe written by Moliere depicts two fundamental themes‚ Hypocrisy and Deception. Tartuffe is a satire of the religious fanaticism and hypocrisy and deception were the major ideas that Moliere was trying to point out. Hypocrisy is one claiming to have moral or religious believes‚ but doesn’t really possess it. It’s the act of not practicing what one preaches. Moliere was trying to get across this point to the people through the play “Tartuffe”. Throughout the play Moliere
