Chemistry Catalyst Report Aim I am trying to investigate the effect of the mass of magnesium dioxide used on the speed of the reaction of 2H2O2(aq) 2H2O(l) + O2(g). I hypothesize that the speed of the reaction is proportional to the rate of decomposition. Independent Variable The mass of MnO2 used Dependent Variable The rate of decomposition through the amount of mass lost Controlled Variables Environment of the experiment Stay in the same place to carry out the experiment and finish the

Lab #3: Method of Initial Rates: Iodine Clock Introduction The detailed system of steps in a reaction is called the reaction mechanism‚ and it is one of the principal aims of chemical kinetics to obtain information to aid in the elucidation of these mechanisms in order to better understand chemical processes. Reactions usually occur in a stepwise manner with each step proceeding at a different speed. If the rate of reaction is slow enough to measure‚ this is indicative of a step much slower

First recognized as a chemical compound in 1818‚ hydrogen peroxide is a clear‚ colorless liquid most often used for cleaning or disinfecting(Britannica‚ 2013). Since pure hydrogen peroxide is unstable‚ it is found in stores as an aqueous solution. The chemical formula for hydrogen peroxide is H₂O₂ which means there are two hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms in the compound(Liebeskind‚ 2013). Seed germination is simply the process in which a seedling sprouts from a seed and begins it’s growth. The

Decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide by Potassium Iodide Brief Description: Two solutions are mixed resulting in an eruption of foam resembling a huge stream of toothpaste. This is the classic “Elephant Toothpaste” reaction. Purpose/Goal: Procedure presents an example of a catalyzed reaction. Explanation of Experiment: The rapid evolution of oxygen gas is produced by the following reaction: 2 H2O2 (aq) = 2 H2O (l) + O2 (g) + heat The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide in the presence

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 in a solution

What happens? For many reactions involving liquids or gases‚ increasing the concentration of the reactants increases the rate of reaction. In a few cases‚ increasing the concentration of one of the reactants may have little noticeable effect of the rate. These cases are discussed and explained further down this page. Don’t assume that if you double the concentration of one of the reactants that you will double the rate of the reaction. It may happen like that‚ but the relationship may well
