    Discussion Objectives: This experiment is monitoring the reaction of sodium hydroxide and crystal violet using spectroscopy. Graphical methods will be used to determine the kinetic rate law, rate constant and activation energy for the reaction. General Discussion: The order of hydroxide was determined by the varying the initial concentration of hydroxide in runs 1 and 2. We used the isolation method, which calls for having much higher concentrations of one reactant then the other, in this case

  • Rate Law: Rate Equation For A Chemical Interaction

    1328 Words  | 3 Pages

    rate law or rate equation for a chemical reaction is an equation that links the reaction rate with concentrations or pressures of reactants and constant parameters (normally rate coefficients and partial reaction orders).[1] For many reactions the rate is given by a power law such as where [A] and [B] express the concentration of the species A and B, respectively (usually in moles per liter (molarity, M)). The exponents x and y are the partial reaction orders and must be determined experimentally…………

  • Rates of Reaction

    733 Words  | 2 Pages

    Rates of Reaction Reactions Reactions can only occur when two different particles come together. The theory for the way the reaction occurs is called The Collision Theory. The collision theory states that that the different particles need to collide with each other in order to react. However, they do not react if they collide without sufficient energy, and therefore the more energy a particle has, the more likely it is to react. The activation energy is the minimum amount of energy

    Get A Reaction Out Of This! A chemical reaction occurs when one or more substances change to produce one or more different substances. For example, some evidence that a chemical reaction has occurred is possible changes in energy, release of energy, formation of a new substance, or reduction or increase in temperature. This lab will be conducted in order to create a chemical reaction by changing the reaction rate of a substance. In order to change the reaction rate, a catalyst needs to be added

    the study of reaction rates and their mechanisms is called chemical kinetics. Chemical kinetics also helps to define the condition in which the reaction rate can be reformed. Temperature, concentration and catalysts are factors that are considered to affect the rate of a chemical reaction. In this experiment, the objectives are to measure the rate of the decomposition of H_2 O_2 (Hydrogen Peroxide), with the presence of the catalyst KI (Potassium Iodide), determine the kinetic order of both reactants

    of part A was to determine the rate of the substitution reaction between 1-Chlorobutane and KOH. This information was obtained by using the titration method to record the concentration of KOH over a given amount of time. To start this procedure, 1-Chlorobutane was added to a round bottom flask, which was connected to a reflux apparatus. Once it was observed that reflux had started the KOH was added with EtOH; this is the start of the reaction. The aliquot was then titrated with 0.100 M HCl and the

    can give a hint about the mechanisms the reaction underwent. By an atom attaching to either a cis or trans side of a molecule, the production of different isomers occurs. Using stereochemistry, there are clues that can be gathered about the mechanism used. In order for the elimination reaction to occur there are two options, either E2 or E1 pathway. Both of these pathways have characteristics that must be present for the reaction to occur. The E2 reaction need the molecule to have anti-coplanar stereochemistry

    The human body goes through many different reactions and processes that are necessary for humans to live. Chemical reactions by the human body are never seen with the human eye, but it is so vital that these processes are understood. Without this understanding, diseases and disorders can never be resolved or controlled. These processes may be small in size, but have a great deal of impact on the function of the human body. One vital process in the human body observed in chemistry is the idea
