Clean up and return the materials. Paragraph 3 In my bar graph I presented the relationship between the temperature of water and an Alka-Seltzer’s rate of reaction time when dropped into the water. The data proves that if the temperature of water increases, then the reaction rate of an Alka-Seltzer tablet will increase as well.

The 0.1% is the concentration amount. Just like temperature and pH, substrate concentration can speed the reaction only up to a certain limit. When we mixed pH 3 enzyme tube with substrate tube, we used 0.3 mL of hydrogen peroxide, but if we were to increase the amount, then the experiment would have been faster. Our

After reflux, we removed the reaction mixture from the apparatus and cooled it for several minutes. We transferred the mixture to the beaker that contained water (30 mL). We cooled the mixture to room temperature and added sodium carbonate to neutralize the mixture. We added sodium carbonate until the pH of the mixture was 8. After neutralize, we collected benzocaine by vacuum filtration.

Introduction: Enzymes are biological catalysts that increase the rate of a reaction without being chemically changed. Enzymes are globular proteins that contain an active site. A specific substrate binds to the active site of the enzyme chemically and structurally (4). Enzymes also increase the rate of a reaction by decreasing the activation energy for that reaction which is the minimum energy required for the reaction to take place (3). Multiple factors affect the activity of an enzyme (1).

Difference in the mass of the samples will also affect values, as the corrosion rate will vary. Volume of acidic solution Volume of the water was measured in a graduated cylinder. More acidic solution will result in higher rates of corrosion and vice versa Time in acidic solution A stopwatch was used to measure the amount of time each sample was kept in the solution The amount of corrosion will increase as the sample is kept in the solution for longer periods of time. Temperature of Room The temperature of the AC was regulated to be constant.

The purpose of this experiment was to analyze the rate of the catalyzed decomposition of hydrogen peroxide in regard to the effects of concentration and temperature. 2H2O2 (l) —I-—> 2H2O (l) + O2 (g) In part one of the experiment, catalyst KI was added to varying solutions of 3% hydrogen peroxide and DI water and the composition of hydrogen peroxide was observed. This was observed by collection the volume of oxygen gas produced during the decomposition, and measuring its volume.

ABSTRACT To catalyze a reaction, an enzyme will grab on (bind) to one or more reactant molecules. In this experiment we examined how increasing the volume of the extract added to the reaction would affect the rate of the reaction. The enzyme used was horseradish peroxidase which helps catalyze hydrogen peroxide. Using different pH levels, the absorbance rate of the reaction was measured to see at which condition the enzyme worked best. The rates of absorption were calculated using a spectrophotometer in 20 second intervals up to 120 seconds.

They tested how the temperature would affect the rate of reaction. This was observed by the amount of time it took for the solution to change colors. For many chemical reactions there is an optimum temperature at which the chemicals will react with each other. As was found in their experiment, the temperature affected the rate of reaction. (Deoudes, 2010).

The ratios of oxygen and carbon dioxide are shown through the oxidation reactions of both fat and carbohydrates. It is possible to calculate an RER higher than 1 because of hyperventilation in the lungs [2]. The respiratory quotient (RQ) is the measurement of CO2 and O2 in the tissues at the cellular level. The most accurate way to determine RQ is through the bicarbonate buffer reaction where the amount of hydrogen ions show metabolism. Although both RQ and RER measure the exchange rate of O2 and CO2, the two are different because RQ is measured at the cellular level in the tissues, while

Effect of Yeast on Temperature on Hydrogen Peroxide Solution in Water Khalid Al Sabeeh Ms. Dobrin 11-G Chemistry HL Jan 5, 2015 Abstract: Within this lab yeast was added to hydrogen peroxide solution in water. Temperature was the factor to be tested. In all trials, the initial and final, when yeast was added temperatures increased by 10˚C respectfully per trial.

Then the scientist will observe the different rates of reaction with temperature. The Boltzmann distribution of law, indicates that high temperature makes molecules gain high energy contents (pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ja). In order to measure the reaction rate, the scientists must use the same volume of water at three different starting temperatures: hot tap

In addition, when both elements were carried out, it was noticeable that each of the test tubes feels warm. This indicated the reaction is an exothermic reaction because it produced heat. The pH level for magnesium chloride solution was neutral (not basic because of oxide layer) but basic for calcium chloride. It can be seen that calcium is more reactive than magnesium. This was because the lower the elements are down a group, the larger the size of its atomic radii.

The IR analysis indicated a distinctive peak at 1778.43 representing ketone, and another peak at 1226.73 representing ether. The peak at 1400-1600 was indicative of either a ring structure or an alkene group. The reactants were dissolved in xylene since they have more solubility compared to the product which undergoes crystallization. Thereafter the mixture was refluxed to maintain constancy in temperature and ensure mixing.

As seen in the trend of both buffer, once the pH is lower than 3, the slope of dv/dpH increase drastically, showing the decreasing effects of the buffer. On the other hand, in the trend of both buffer on the right side of graph shows when NaOH is added, the change in pH is more drastic once past about pH 5. Although buffer 1 and buffer 2 shows a similar trend, the plot of buffer 1 is above the plot of buffer 2. The reason for this is that buffer 1 is made by an acid and base with an almost equal concentration. This makes buffer 1 a greater buffer compared to buffer 2. This is not true for Buffer 2 because the because NaOH was added to acetic acid to form acetate ions as conjugate base:

Hydrogen chloride has a very powerful smell. It is in the form of a gas but only when it is at room temperature which is approximately 25 Celsius and when the pressure is high. When you add water to hydrogen chloride then it breaks down into small pieces which are known as dissolving. The solubility of hydrogen chloride is very high this means that it can dissolve in water quickly because it dissolves many times in its own solution (the gas form of hydrogen chloride). It is very soluble because the smaller the chain of the molecules are then the energy will be required in small quantities however if the chain is long then it will need more energy
