Experiment 16: Kinetics: The Iodine Clock Jane Smith Purpose: The objective of this experiment was for students to apply their knowledge of kinetics and rate laws in order to determine the rate of a chemical reactions‚ activation energy‚ and frequency factors of those reactions. Specifically‚ this experiment was performed using a series of solutions with varying concentrations of KI‚ Na2S2O3‚ and (NH4)2S2O3 . Students recorded time elapsed to observe physical evidence of a reaction taking place

This experiment was a Landolt Iodine clock reaction - Oxidation of Bisulphite by Iodate. It involved conducting three measured experiments. The first variable tested was concencentration. This was tested by conducting two experiments‚ each varying the concentration of either the NaHSO3 or KIO3. The varying of NaHSO3 involved using 0.1 Molar of KIO3 against decreasing concentrations of NaHSO3 (0.25 M‚ 0.125 M‚ 0.0625 M and 0.03125 M). When decreasing the concentration of KIO3‚ 0.25 M of NaHSO3 was

There are three reactions in the iodine clock reaction. The first reaction is IO3-(aq) + 3 HSO3-3 SO4-(aq) + I-(aq)+ 3 H+(aq)‚ where the iodate ions become iodide ions1. The second reaction is 6 H+(aq) +IO3-(aq) + 5 I-(aq) 3 I2(aq) + 3 H2O(l) where the iodate ions become molecular iodine2. The third reaction involves molecular iodine becoming a dark blue starch;I2(aq) + starch blue-black complex3. These three reactions react in a sequence. In any reaction the concentration is exponentially related

DISCUSSION Considered as moderately weak oxidizing agent‚ Iodine was used for the determination of strong reductants. Standard iodine solutions were found to have smaller electrode potentials as compared with the other oxidants‚ gaining them the advantage of imparting a degree of selectivity essential in the determination of strong reducing agents amid the presence of weak agents. Although regular re-standardization was essential for Iodine solution due to its lack of stability‚ it was still suitable

In order to prepare the iodine solution titrant‚ exactly 50 mL of 0.01 M KIO3‚ exactly 20 mL of 10% KI solution‚ and exactly 25 mL of 0.3 M H2SO4 was transferred into a 100 mL volumetric flask using a volumetric pipette. The volumetric flask was then filled to the mark with distilled water. The flask was covered with Parafilm and inverted to mix. The next part of the experiment was to determine the Vitamin C in a solution of known concentration. Observations of the Vitamin C sample and the amount

Report of redox titration--- Iodine titrated against sodium thiosulphate Objectives The objective of this experiment is to balance the equation for the reaction between sodium thiosulphate and iodine. Principle As the reaction between sodium thiosulphate and iodine is a redox reaction‚ so I make use of this to perform a redox titration‚ iodine titrated against sodium thiosulphate. From the experimental result‚ I can find out the number of mole of the two substances‚ hence I can calculate

Introduction: In this lab you will observe the diffusion of a substance across a semi permeable membrane. Iodine is a known indicator for starch. An indicator is a substance that chances color in the presence of the substance it indicates. Watch as your teacher demonstrates how iodine changes in the presence of starch. **Prelab Observations: Describe what happened when iodine came into contact with starch. The cornstarch turned blue-black Procedure: 1. Fill a plastic baggie with

a titration. Introduction Redox titrations using sodium thiosulphate as a reducing agent is known as iodometric titration since it is used specifically to titrate iodine. The reaction involved is: I2 + 2Na2S2O3 I2 + 2S2O322NaI + Na2S4O6 2I- + S4O62- In this equation I2 has been reduced to I- :2S2O32I2 + 2e S4O62- + 2e 2I- The iodine/thiosulphate titration is a general method for determining the concentration of an oxidising agent solution. A known volume of an oxidising agent is added into an excess

concentration of the ascorbic acid in the tablet‚ a redox reaction of it with iodine was done. While iodine is an oxidizing agent and ascorbic acid is a reducing agent. The reaction forms dehydroascorbic acid and iodide. Ascorbic acid + I2 -> dehydroascorbic acid + 2 H+ + 2 I- However‚ Iodine does not dissolve in water very well. In this case‚ standard solution of potassium iodate(V) is used to produce aqueous iodine. Excess potassium iodide and dilute sulphuric acid is added to react with potassium
