An investigation to show how the rate of reaction between hydrochloric acid and sodium thiosulphate is affected by the concentration of the acid Simple Procedure Place a conical flask on a piece of paper with a cross on it. Add hydrochloric acid and sodium thiosulphate‚ and record the amount of time taken for the cross to disappear through the solution from the top of the flask. Record this time and repeat this for different concentrations of hydrochloric acid. Fair Test The variables in

Enzymes lower the activation energy of chemical reactions but they themselves are not consumed or altered when doing so. These catalysts work best at optimum temperatures and pH’s. The temperature and pH at which the reaction occurs the quickest is the ideal condition for the enzymatic reaction. Alpha amylase converts starch into glucose and when starch is combined with I2KI indicator a dark purple solution forms. As the enzyme breaks down the starch the absorbency will decrease. The absorbency

out so that tubes containing a reaction solution of the Amylase enzyme and starch were simultaneously mixed. The reactions were then introduced to I2-KI‚ which stopped the reactions‚ at two minute intervals. Each of these trials was repeated three times to ensure proper accuracy. After concluding the reactions they were placed into a spectrophotometer (A580) for analysis. Graphing the values of the absorbance to time for each pH it was found that the rate of reactions in the neutral pH solutions were

ribosomes in a cell. They act as catalysts during biological reactions; therefore‚ enzymes are able to speed up these reactions without undergoing a permanent change themselves. These proteins are able to do this by lowering the activation energy of a reaction. To add on‚ enzymes require specific conditions under which they can work best. Reactions occur at faster rates when the temperature is higher. However‚ the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction is reduced or can be stopped if the temperature becomes

Factors Affecting Reaction Rate Bob Jones Josh October 2‚ 2014 Period 3 Introduction: In reference to the collision theory‚ molecules act as small spheres that collide and bounce off each other‚ transferring energy among themselves when the collide. In order for a reaction to occur‚ there must be collisions between molecules. Through experimentation‚ factors are discovered that influence the reaction rates of chemical reactions include the concentration

Extended Experimental Investigation Cold Pack Year 12 Chemistry Abstract: Cold packs are based on the principle of endothermic reactions‚ which means a reaction that absorbs heat from the surrounding resulting in a temperature drop. Due to this temperature drop‚ cold packs have many benefits when it comes to injuries such as sprains and strains. It cools the local tissue and reduces bleeding‚ swelling and pain. It also aids in a speedy recovery. The most commonly used

After adding more manganese dioxide‚ the reaction occurred again. This time‚ the bubbles being formed were larger; intensity of (4). The solution got a little warmer‚ but the difference in temperature was hardly distinguishable by simply touching the test tube. The reaction lasted about 10 minutes. 4. a) The

Determine the Activation Energy of the Reaction between Br— and BrO3— in Acid Solution S.6 ( ) Name: [ ] ( ) Time allowed: 55 minutes Introduction: The reaction can be represented by 5Br—(aq) + BrO3—(aq) + 6H+(aq) → 3Br2(aq) + 3H2O(l) The progress of the reaction may be followed by adding a fixed amount of phenol together with some methyl red indicator. The bromine produced during the reaction reacts very rapidly with phenol. Once

In each reaction‚ we replaced the presence of Sodium Sulfate with our unknown. Our first reaction was the reaction from the sulfate anion test between Sodium Sulfate and Barium Chloride. If the compound was in fact Sodium Sulfate it would produce a white precipitate and it did. The second reaction was first between Sodium Sulfate and Hydrochloric
