CHEMICAL KINETICS RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The balanced equation of the reaction between sodium thiosulfate and Hydrochloric acid is: S2O32- (aq) + 2 H+ (aq) SO2 (g) + S (s) +H2O (l) Using beakers with the same diameter was very important in conducting the experiment. If different sizes were used‚ the visibility of the “x” on the paper beneath the beaker could disappear from view too early or too late than the hypothetical time depending on the depth of the solution. It was also significant

Chemical Equilibrium ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- RESULTS AND DISCUSSION A. Iron-Silver Equilibrium In studying equilibrium between iron and silver‚ 0.10 M FeSO4 and 0.10 M AgNO3 were used. The balanced equation for the reaction is: FeSO4 (aq) + 2 AgNO3 (aq) ↔ Fe(NO3)2 (aq) + Ag2SO4 (s) It has a net equation of: Fe2+(aq) + Ag+(aq) ↔ Fe3+(aq) + Ag(s) This part of the experiment
