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

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

The Effect of pH on Enzymatic Reaction Rate Abstract Enzymes are affected by changes in pH. The most favorable pH value— the point where the enzyme is most active—is known as the optimum pH. This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of pH reaction rate on an enzyme‚ catalase‚ from yeast. The experimental results indicate that the catalase worked best at a neutral pH level of seven (7). Introduction An enzyme is a protein molecule that serves as a catalyst. “The basic function of

Coursework Rates of Reaction Investigation Introduction In this investigation I am going to be investigating the reaction between marble chips and hydrochloric acid‚ and to see what differences in the rate of this reaction arise when different concentrations of acid are used. Below is the word equation for this reaction: Calcium Carbonate + Hydrochloric Acid = Calcium Chloride + Carbon Dioxide + Water Below is the fully balanced chemical equation for this reaction. CaCo3 + HCl 

Concentrations of HCl on the Rate of Reaction Between HCl and Sodium Thiosulfate Chemistry Lab report Aim: The aim of this experiment is to determine how concentrations of HCl acid affect the rate of reaction when reacted with Sodium Thiosulfate (Na2S2O3). This experiment would require measuring the mass of the reaction over a period of time to be able to determine the rate of the reaction. Safety Precautions: In this experiment‚ SO2 gas is produced from the reaction between Sodium Thiosulfate and HCl‚ and this

Lab 3: Reaction Order and Rate Laws Name: Student Lab Partners: None Date of Experiment: 16 March 2014 Location: My House Course Number: CHE112 Abstract: When combining compounds‚ there are always two roles considered in the reaction. These are reactants and products. Reactants are the initial compounds before mixing. The products are synonymous with the term byproduct‚ or what remains when the reaction occurs. For example‚ Sodium (Na+) and Chlorine (Cl-)

concentrations in the atmosphere‚ and thus the ocean‚ will continue to decrease the CO32- concentrations in the ocean and thus lowering CaCO3 saturation levels. In regions where the saturation state of aragonite or calcite is greater than 1‚ the formation of shells and or skeletons is favored whereas for values less than 1.0‚ the seawater is corrosive to CaCO3 (John M. Pandolfi). This corrosive condition results in dissolution. Dissolution of the carbonate minerals calcite‚ aragonite‚ and high-Mg

Science Coursework-Rates of Reactions Introduction Investigating how the concentration of sodium-thiosulphate (STS) and hydrochloric acid (HCL) affects the rate of reaction in the experiment. In addition I am also checking how different variables affect my experiment and also how I can make my test more precise‚ reliable and accurate. Strategy According to my results‚ as the concentration of STS solution increased the rate of reaction of my experiment was increased. Also as the concentration

Abstract We performed two trials of nine different variables of reactions to determine what increases/decreases reaction rates. The variables we used are hot/cold and room temperature water‚ a equal mixture of HCL and water‚ A equal mixture of NaOH and water‚ either a whole‚ broken‚ or finely crushed Alka-seltzer tablet. The fastest rate average was at 0.04 s (finely crushed Alka-seltzer with room temp. water). The slowest rate average is 8.02 s (Alka-seltzer with cold water). Introduction
