Experiment to investigate the effect of concentration of electrolyte on the current of voltaic cell Aim The aim is to identify the relationship between the concentration of H2SO4 solution and the current of Cu-Zn voltaic cell. Hypothesis My hypothesis is that the greater the concentration of sulfuric acid the bigger the current of the voltaic cell. In a voltaic cell‚ chemical energy is concerted to electrical though the oxidation and reduction happen on the electrodes. Current will not flow

For Acidic hydrolysis‚ SAC was found to be well susceptible to acid hydrolysis with 0.05 M HCl at 40 ˚C for 30 min caused about 8% reduction in the peak area of SAC (Fig.4a). While this mild condition didn’t affect VAL. While‚ nearly 27% was the reduction in SAC’s peak area when subjected to alkaline hydrolysis. This considerable decline in the peak area of SAC when subjected to 0.01 M NaOH at 40°C for 30 min revealed degradation products peaks appeared at 3.339 and 9.482 minutes (Fig.4b) and they

The Equilibrium Constant of an Ester Hydrolysis Reaction Jesus Flores March 30th‚ 2015 Abstract: This experiment was conducted in order to discover the Kc‚ equilibrium constant‚ of a hydrolysis reaction of an unknown ester #2‚ unknown acid‚ and alcohol #2 products. The first week consisted of creating the reaction mixtures in bottles‚ next was preparing a NaOH solution while neutralizing with KHP. The final week consisted of titrating the bottles with the NaOH solution prepared previously

The Equilibrium Constant of an Ester Hydrolysis Reaction Julia Stanley CHM 152 LL Dr. Asmita Kane Budruk Goal of the lab: The purpose of this laboratory is to determine the equilibrium constant‚ Kc‚ for the acid-catalyzed reaction between an unknown ester and water to produce an unknown alcohol and an unknown carboxylic acid. I was using Unknown Ester #3 with a density of 0.9342 and Molar Mass of 74.08 g/mol; alcohol with density 0.7914 and Molar Mass 32.04 g/mol. Chemical

That is‚ the entering group does not for the most part have the same position on the ring as that purged by the halogen substituent. Case in point‚ the hydrolysis of 4-chloromethylbenzene at 340° gives an equimolar mix of 3-and 4-methylbenzenols: Significantly all the more striking is the elite development of 3-methoxybenzenamine in the amination of 2-chloromethoxybenzene. Notice that this outcome is an

third reaction involves molecular iodine becoming a dark blue starch;I2(aq) + starch blue-black complex3. These three reactions react in a sequence. In any reaction the concentration is exponentially related to the rate of the reaction. The rate of the reaction is dependent on potassium iodate4. Therefore as the concentration increases‚ the rate of the reaction also increases. Since the rate of the reaction is inversely proportional to time‚ as the

Biology Fermentation Practical "A comparison of the respiration of yeast in different sugar substrates" Aim: The aim was to compare the respiration of yeast in different substrates of sugars‚ i.e. between a monosaccharide (glucose) and a disaccharide (maltose) Theory: There are three types of Carbohydrates‚ monosaccharides‚ disaccharides‚ and polysaccharides. The two‚ which I will be looking at‚ are‚ monosaccharide (glucose) and the disaccharide (maltose) Classification and major properties of

VARYING EFFECTS OF ENZYME CONCENTRATION ON REACTION RATES OF MALATE DEHYDROGENASE CELL BIOLOGY 13 NOVEMBER 2007 Enzymes are biological catalysts. They are proteins that speed up reactions with low concentrations. These enzyme proteins are made up of linkages of amino acids. The links coil‚ and coil again forming a tertiary structure. This structure has a groove in it called an active site. The active site is

Determination of the Equilibrium Constant of an Unknown Ester Hydrolysis Reaction Abstract The experiments to follow determined that the equilibrium concentrations of the reaction: ester + water ↔ alcohol + acid‚ are equal to 0.0363 moles of ester‚ 0.2852 moles of water‚ and 0.0268 moles each of alcohol and acid. Using this information the equilibrium constant was determined to be 0.06938. 1. Introduction In this lab the equilibrium constant‚ Kc‚ for the acid catalyzed reaction

activity depends on the concentration of the substrate‚ temperature and the pH. The more concentrated the substrate is the more reactive the enzyme is. The optimal pH for an enzyme is 7.5 and the optimal temperature for an enzyme is 53 Celsius. Extremes in the temperature and the pH of an enzyme can denature therefore destroy it. The enzyme that is in this experiment is Amylase. Amylase is found in germinating seeds. These seeds contain starch in their endosperm. With the help of Amylase enzyme‚ the starch
