determine whether or not a chemical reaction occurred after the mixing of various chemicals. The evolution of a gas‚ the formation of precipitation‚ and the change of temperature or color are all indicative of a chemical reaction. It was assumed that a reaction did not take place if the mixture of chemicals exhibited none of these characteristics. Several precipitation‚ complex-ion formation‚ redox‚ and acid-base reactions were performed. Redox: Decomposition Reactions In a 13 x 100 mm test tube‚ 2 mL

Introduction The reaction rate of a chemical reaction is determined as the change in the concentration of a reactant or product over the change in time. [1] The rate of a reaction is determined by experiment. Many factors influence the rate of a reaction: the nature of the reaction‚ concentration‚ pressure‚ temperature‚ and surface area‚ presence of catalyst and intensity of light. [2] For a chemical reaction‚ the rate law or rate equation is a mathematical expressed equation that links the reaction rate with

The Effect of pH on Enzymatic Reaction Rate Abstract Enzymes are affected by changes in pH. The most favorable pH value— the point where the enzyme is most active—is known as the optimum pH. This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of pH reaction rate on an enzyme‚ catalase‚ from yeast. The experimental results indicate that the catalase worked best at a neutral pH level of seven (7). Introduction An enzyme is a protein molecule that serves as a catalyst. “The basic function of

Calorimeter Determination of Reaction Enthalpy 9/11/2014 Introduction: A chemical reaction often indicated by a transfer of energy measured in heat. By measuring this heat transfer in a constant pressurized environment‚ the enthalpy of the reaction can be used to infer certain information about a specific reactions reactants and products. The transfer of heat from outside sources in would be described as an endothermic reaction. Contrary‚ when a reaction releases heat out to its surroundings

Chemistry 1225 Lab Write-Up #13 Abstract Electrolysis is a method of using a direct electric current to drive an otherwise non-spontaneous chemical reaction. During electrolysis‚ hydrogen atoms (H2) are reduced at the cathode whereas the oxygen atoms (O2) are oxidized at the anode. There were three different solutions used in the experiment in order to have a better understanding of electrolysis reactions. From each solution‚ reaction equations were produced. The reactions could be observed from

This lab focused on three factors affecting reaction rates‚ temperature‚ surface area‚ and concentration. Our first experiment (table 1) looked mainly into the effects of temperature on the reaction rate. To see how different temperatures would change the reaction rates we had three flasks all containing varying temperatures of water(H20). One with cold water (4°C)‚ one room temperature (21°C)‚ and one with hot water (44°C). In each flask‚ we dropped one tablet of Alka-Seltzer‚ all within 0.008 grams

Weak Acid Titration Abstract: Our method for determining the unknown weak acid was to determine the equilibrium constant K from the molecular weight of the weak acid from our titration data. In this lab the acid Potassium hydrogen phthalate and two unknown acids were titrated. We determined the molar mass of the Potassium hydrogen phthalate‚ for the unknown acids we calculated the molar mass and the Ka values. We used NaOH as the known base for titrating in all three of the titrations. Our

Introduction What is chemical change? Chemical change is the alteration of a substance into one or more different substances with different properties (also called chemical reaction). The four different types of chemial reations are synthesis‚ decomposition‚ single displacement‚ and double displacement. Synthesis is when atoms and/or molecules combine to form larger molecules. Decomposition is when a large molecules are split into elements or smaller molecules. Single Displacement has an element
