ON THE RATE OF REACTION Aim To study the effect that temperature and concentration of iodide ion solution have on the rate of iodide ion I⁻ oxidation by peroxodisulphate ion S₂O₈⁻‚ creating an iodine clock reaction. Introduction I decided to choose as the topic for my investigation the rate of reaction for its vital importance in the human body. Indeed I am really interested in Biology and especially physiology and I would like to study medicine. The rate at which different reactions happens in the

for the organisms by catalyzing various biochemical reactions. Most of these chemical reactions would not take place in the conditions available if the enzymes were not a present. Therefore‚ we can say that being involved as catalysts is the main and most important role of an enzyme in any organism. Furthermore‚ many reactions that are thermodynamically favored do not occur quickly because there is not enough energy necessary to start the reaction (1). This energy is called the activation energy and

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
Premium Chemistry Chemical reaction Temperature
objective: In this experiment‚ I decided to find out how temperature would affect endothermic reactions compared to exothermic reactions. An endothermic reaction absorbs energy in the form of heat. This reaction feels cold because it is taking heat away from its surroundings. It also releases gases. An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases energy as heat. Since the energy is released‚ the exothermic reactions feel hot. Methods/Materials I did three experiments. I mixed lemon juice and baking
Premium Temperature Chemical reaction Thermodynamics
There are two types of chemical reaction that occur one goes only in one direction and the other one is reversible. A reversible reaction is when a products starts to form the backward reaction starts where the products turns back to reactant molecules. When the rate of forward and backward reaction is already equal and the concentrations of the reactants and products no longer change with time we can say that chemical equilibrium is already achieved. A reaction is said to be at equilibrium when

Hamad IS1‚ B4 Endothermic and exothermic reactions Background information: An endothermic reaction is a product or a substance accompanied by the absorption of heat. An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases heat. Design: Research question- Which reaction occurs‚ exothermic or endothermic‚ when Epson salt‚ Borax‚ Laundry detergent‚ and baking soda are added‚ separately‚ with water? Hypothesis- If Epson salt is mixed with water then the reaction will be endothermic because salt is used

AP Chem Exam - ‘98 1. Solve the following problem related to the solubility equilibria of some metal hydroxides in aqueous solution. (a) The solubility of Cu(OH)2(s) is 1.72 x10–6 g/100. mL of solution at 25° C. (i) Write the balanced chemical equation for the dissociation of Cu(OH)2(s) in aqueous solution. Cu(OH)2 Cu 2+ + 2 OH – (ii) Calculate the solubility (in mol/L) of Cu(OH)2 at 25 °C. (1.72 x10–6 g/0.100 L)(1 mol/97.5 g) = 1.76 x10–7 mol/L (iii) Calculate

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
