environments affecting the rate of reaction‚ PNPP (p-nitrophenyl phosphate) + H20 ? PNP (p-nitrophenol) + H3P04. This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme phosphatase. Different environments produced different reaction rates as environmental factors affect the efficiency of phosphatase. This is because environmental factors can change the tertiary structure of phosphatase‚ which alters its active site‚ and thus changes its efficiency to catalyze the reaction. We measured the rate of reaction‚ by using a chromogenic

Reaction Rate Coursework Aim To see how the concentration of a reactant affects the rate of reaction‚ in this case sodium thiosulphate and acid. Scientific Background For a reaction to occur‚ the particles of the reactants must be colliding with each other with enough energy‚ the amount of energy needed for the reaction is called activation energy. Activation energy is altered by temperature‚ concentration‚ surface area of and the pressure on the reactants. Stirring the reactants also increases

Changing the Rate of Reaction PART 1: PARTICLE SIZE Question: How does changing the particle size of marble (CaCO3) affect the rate of reaction when it is added to hydrochloric acid (HCl)? Hypothesis: If I change the particle size of marble to test how to change the rate of a chemical reaction‚ than the chemical reaction with the smallest marble particles will produce CO2 the quickest because the larger the surface area‚ the more place the hydrochloric acid will have to collide with the marble

Rate of Reaction Experiment Introduction : in this term in chemistry class I was learning about rate of reaction. As defined by the Britannica encyclopedia‚ a chemical reaction is a process where one or more substances (reactants) are converted to one or more different products because of the rearrangement of atoms of the reactants. For the reaction to occur‚ the particles must collide with each other and in order to succeed there must be enough energy for the collision because a collision with little

Premium Chemical reaction Reaction rate
The Rate of a Reaction The area of chemistry that deals with the rate or speed of chemical reactions is known a chemical kinetics. The word “kinetic” is derived from the Greek name kinitikos that means movement or motion. In the present context‚ the kinetic means the reaction rate or rate of a reaction that is defined as the change in concentration of a reactant or a product with time (M/s). Chemical reaction can be represented by the following general equation. Reactants Products It is very important

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

Erin Bolton Chemistry Lab Report April 29‚ 2015 Lab: Reaction Rates Introduction: In this experiment we studied the reaction of potassium persulfate‚ K2S2O8‚ with potassium iodide‚ KI. All chemical reactions have an energy barrier to overcome before the reaction will proceed. We will record data based on the concentration‚ temperature and catalyst for each experiment. Once this has been completed it will be graphed. Procedure: Due to the chemicals being used having hazard gloves are used

1. If difficult situations arise‚ what is your initial reaction? Do you fight or flee? Do you stay calm or get agitated? Do you “own” your part of the situation or look to lay blame on anyone other than yourself? Consider how your initial reaction may affect your ability to resolve a situation effectively. If difficult situations arise‚ my initial reaction is to fight. I take the time to do reflect and think of the best way to deal with the difficult situation so I can move on. I stay calm and face
