Title: Studying SN1 and SN2 Reactions: Nucleophilic Substitutions at the saturated carbon Lab Partner: Jeszie Geronimo Objective and purpose: the purpose of this experiment is to convert a primary alcohol to an alkyl bromide using a Sn2 Reaction. Investigate some factors that influence the rate of Sn1 reactions. The second part of this lab will focus more on how unlike factors influence the rate of reactions in anSN1 reactions. The factors that we will be inspecting are the leaving groups‚ Cl-

three reactions that occurred in the test tubes where you combined potassium iodide‚ KI‚ and hydrogen peroxide‚ H2O2 (in part 1) of the experiment? (Give a detailed explanation of any observations that you made‚ i.e.‚ what made the colour change‚ what reactions happened?) ANSWER: 2. Use the information below to develop the necessary calculations for the rate of reaction from the solutions in part B of the experiment • Calculate the initial molarity

Kinetics Factors Affecting Reaction Rate OVERVIEW Chemical reactions occur at different rates. In this experiment you will consider some of the key factors that influence the rate of a reaction: nature of reactants - particle size temperature concentration catalysts According to the collision theory‚ the rate of a reaction depends on the frequency of collisions between reacting particles. The more frequent the collisions‚ the faster the rate of the reaction. However‚ in order for the collisions

Effect of Temperature on Solubility of a Salt Ahmed Mohammed 17-nov-2013 Abstract In this experiment‚ you will study the effect of changing temperature on the amount of solutet will dissolve in a given amount of water. In this experiment‚ you will completely dissolve different quantities of potassium nitrate‚ KNO3‚ in the same volume of water at a high temperature. As each solution cools‚ you will monitor temperature using a computer-interfaced Temperature Probe and observe

BIO 211 Lab Section 11 February 15‚ 2012 Effects of Temperature on Enzymatic Activity Abstract Temperature is a measure of kinetic energy. As this movement increases‚ collision rate and intensity‚ and therefore reaction rates‚ increase. This experiment was conducted to determine if there is a minimum temperature that increase kinetic energy and denature enzymes to slow enzymatic reactions or fail to catalyze them. The experimental results indicate an increase in temperature will increase reaction

Enzymes Reactions to Changes in Substrate and Inhibitors Benjamin J. Mora Coronado University of Texas Rio Grande Valley at Edinburgh Abstract Purpose for the experiments was to test the enzymes in various scenarios and see how changing this would affect the rate of reaction. The enzyme source used in the experiments was Turnip Extract. Concentrations of Turnip extract for activity 1 where o.5ml‚ 1.0ml‚ and 2.0 ml as for the rest of the activities 2 Through 4 stayed at a consistent concentration

The effect of temperature on the reaction rate: As the temperature increases it provides more kinetic energy to the molecules allowing them to move faster and with more energy the molecules can overcome the activation energy barrier and therefore the reaction occurs faster. 5. Since the proposed mechanism is a SN1 reaction the reaction got faster as the polarity increased. This is because SN1 reactions work best with polar protic solvents as they stabilize the carbocation. Therefore‚ as seen

The Effect of Position on Heart Rate This lab explores the effect of head position on an individual’s heart rate by having a subject move it’s head while simultaneously monitoring the subjects heart rate. There were three successive periods during which the heart rate was monitored that occurred in this order: a resting stage (subject sitting upright)‚ a stage with the head positioned between the knees‚ and a recovery stage (subject returns to upright position). The graph depicts a wide range

on cardiovascular functions such as pulse rate‚ pulse lag‚ the PT interval‚ the TP interval‚ systolic‚ and diastolic blood pressure is noticeable after running down the steps of Long Hall and back up to the third floor. As Table 1 shows‚ the data support the initial hypothesis that the pulse rate will increase‚ the pulse lag will decrease‚ both the PT and TP intervals will decrease‚ and the systolic and diastolic blood pressure will increase. The pulse rate mean before exercise was about 78 beats per
