Applications of Le Châtelier’s Principle (September 11 - 15‚ 2014) **The purpose of this experiment was to visually observe the effects of how changing certain aspects of the reaction affected the observed equilibrium. PROCEDURE: Introductory activity Part A: Effect of Concentration: Two different temperature water baths were created‚ one at 65-70oC‚ the other ice‚ and set aside for Part B. 20 mL of potassium thiocyanate solution were poured into a petri dish. The initial color and all subsequent

Le Châtelier’s principle states that The system will have one reaction dominate until the offsetting changes allow the rates of the forward and reverse reactions to be equal again (reestablishing equilibrium). If the forward reaction dominates in order to offset the changes‚ we say the system “shifts to the right” or “shifts toward products” in order to reestablish equilibrium conditions. This will increase the concentration of the products and decrease the concentration of the reactants. However

Chemical Equilibrium: Le Châtelier’s Principle Abstract This experiment entitled "Chemical Equilibrium" aims to help students to investigate the effects of concentration and temperature upon the position of equilibrium in a cobalt chloride solution‚ Co(H2O)62+. In this experiment‚ cobalt crystal is dissolved with distilled water and ethanol which the initial colour is purple-pinkish and a few drops of concentration of HCl is added to the test tube‚ the final colour is in deep blue colour. Upon

9/25/13 Endothermic Reaction Lab Report The Effect Ammonium Nitrate has on the Temperature of Water During this lab students are going to mix water and ammonium nitrate one gram at a time and observe the change in temperature that is occurring. The students are then going to record the data on a table and later will be able to make a graph of the results. A hypothesis for this lab could be if ammonium nitrate is added to water then the water temperature will decrease. . Hypothesis: If

Introduction – Lab Report What is a Chemical Reaction? A chemical reaction is a change in matter that produces one or more new substances. A chemical change or reaction occurs when bonds are broken and new ones are formed. The formation and dissolution of these bonds are dependent upon environment changes. Even without the usage of microscopes‚ chemical reactions are usually apparent to the naked eye. The two main kinds of changes that one can observe are the formation of new substances and changes

7‚ 2013 Mrs. Dube Endothermic vs. Exothermic Reactions Brr! Exclaimed a kid who touched citric acid and baking soda combined. When those two mix‚ it creates a cold endothermic reaction. An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases energy in the form of an increase in temperature. Endothermic reactions are reactions that absorb energy and cools down surroundings. (Many examples give away exo and endothermic reactions). So listen up! To begin with‚ a chemical reaction in which energy is

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

task: Chemistry Endothermic and Exothermic reactions A chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances are chemically changed into one or more new substances. A chemical reaction may involve the motion of electrons in the forming and breaking of chemical bonds. Therefore when a chemical reaction takes place‚ energy is transferred to‚ or from‚ the environment. A Chemical reaction can either be exothermic or endothermic. Exothermic Reactions During an Exothermic Reaction a transfer of

Lab: 5 Experiment:13 Pre-Lab The purpose of this experiment is to observe an equilibrium reaction counteracting changes to it’s system all in accordance to Le Chatelier’s principle. An equilibrium reaction can be pushed toward products or reactant based on changes in temperature or concentration. The reversibility of reaction will also be looked at. Pre-Lab questions 1. The concentrations of products and concentrations of reactants remain constant but both reactions

LE CHATELIER’S PRINCIPLE Castro‚ Lharize C. Experiment # 1 I. Introduction: In this experiment‚ using Le Chatelier’s principle‚ we will observe several responses of a system at equilibrium to various changes in external conditions. The experiment aims to investigate two equilibrium systems: (a) cobalt complexes and (b) chromate-dichromate equilibrium and explain observations in light of the Le Chatelier’s principle. II. Theory/Concepts: In 1884 the French chemist and engineer Henry-Louis
