determine how the concentration of a species can affect reaction rate in the determination of rate law and rate constant. 2. To determine how temperature affects reaction rate. Introduction Chemical kinetics deals with the speed‚ or rate‚ of a reaction and the mechanism by which the reaction occurs. We can think of the rate as the number of events per unit time. The rate at which you drive (your speed) is the number of miles you drive in an hour (mi/hr). For a chemical reaction the rate is the number

Biology coursework How does the temperature affect the rate of reaction? Introduction For our experiments‚ I was investigating what affects the rate of reaction. We used Hydrogen peroxide to test the rate of reaction‚ with the temperature of this being our variable that we changed. Hydrogen peroxide is a clear‚ colourless liquid which has various amounts of uses within the laboratory‚ industrial purposes and even in our households. It is mainly used for cleaning products and hair dye but is

Purpose: The purpose of the ‘Rates of Reactions’ lab is to learn how to plan an investigative lab without outside help and to learn about the ‘Rates of Reactions’. This lab will require students to take responsibility for their own learning and use their prior knowledge to aid in the completion of this lab. In the lab prepared below‚ students will be learning about Rates of Reaction with varying concentrations of Alka-Seltzer with water. Hypothesis: I believe that the more water added to the canister

The Effect of Different Concentrations of HCl on 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

Lab 3: Reaction Order and Rate Laws Name: Student Lab Partners: None Date of Experiment: 16 March 2014 Location: My House Course Number: CHE112 Abstract: When combining compounds‚ there are always two roles considered in the reaction. These are reactants and products. Reactants are the initial compounds before mixing. The products are synonymous with the term byproduct‚ or what remains when the reaction occurs. For example‚ Sodium (Na+) and Chlorine (Cl-)

determine the effects of different environments affecting the rate of reaction‚ PNPP (p-nitrophenyl phosphate) + H20 ? PNP (p-nitrophenol) + H3P04. This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme phosphatase. Different environments produced different reaction rates as environmental factors affect the efficiency of phosphatase. This is because environmental factors can change the tertiary structure of phosphatase‚ which alters its active site‚ and thus changes its efficiency to catalyze the reaction. We measured

Coursework-Rates of Reactions Introduction Investigating how the concentration of sodium-thiosulphate (STS) and hydrochloric acid (HCL) affects the rate of reaction in the experiment. In addition I am also checking how different variables affect my experiment and also how I can make my test more precise‚ reliable and accurate. Strategy According to my results‚ as the concentration of STS solution increased the rate of reaction of my experiment was increased. Also as the concentration of STS

Testing the effect of concentration on rate of reaction Plan: We are investigating the effect of nitric acid on calcium carbonate. We are doing this experiment‚ as we would like to understand the effect that acid rain has on limestone. We also want to understand how acid can have an effect on rate of reaction. The word equation for the reaction that will take place is: Calcium Carbonate + Nitric Acid Calcium Nitrate + Carbon Dioxide + Water The balanced symbol equation

Rates of Reaction: Hydrochloric Acid + Calcium Carbonate Background Information: Hydrochloric acid is a clear‚ colourless‚ highly-pungent solution of hydrogen chloride (HCl) in water. It is a highly corrosive‚ strong mineral acid with many industrial uses. Hydrochloric acid is found naturally in gastric acid. Calcium carbonate is a chemical compound with the formula CaCO3. It is a common substance found in rocks in all parts of the world‚ and is the main
