Hydrogen and the Noble Gases Hydrogen is the chemical element with atomic number 1. It is represented by the symbol “H”. It is an odorless‚ nonmetallic‚ tasteless and highly explosive gas. Hydrogen is the lightest and most abundant chemical element in the universe. It forms 1- ions when combined with metals‚ and 1+ ion when combined with non-metals to form acids. Hydrogen is “the fuel of life”; without it to combine with oxygen we would not have water. Water is made of two parts hydrogen

Looking back at the research question‚ the actual amount of reactant did not match the theoretical stoichiometric amounts according to the balanced equation‚ but the amount of catalyst matched the original value when uncertainty is taken into account. The percent yields for the reactants in the equation are very far from 100% yield. In the case of water‚ the percent yield came out to be meaning there were at least 2 times to 4 times more water than there should be. The percent yield of oxygen came

Hydrogen peroxide and iodide ions Aim: To determine the rate equation for the reaction between Hydrogen peroxide and iodide ions‚ and to investigate the effects of a catalyst and temperatures on the reaction and to derive the activation enthalpy. Background knowledge: 1Hydrogen peroxide reacts with iodide ions producing iodine‚ when in an aqueous acid solution. H2O2 (aq) + 2I- (aq) + 2H3O+(aq) I2 (aq) + 2H2O(l) To detect iodine you can look at the color shown by the addition of starch

Reaction of catalase with hydrogen peroxide AIM: I aim to find the rate of reaction between catalase and hydrogen peroxide. Enzymes such as Catalase are protein molecules that are found in living cells. They are used to speed up specific reactions in the cells. Each enzyme just performs one particular reaction so they are all very specific. Catalase enzymes found in living cells e.g. in yeast‚ potato or liver‚ speed up (in our case) the breaking down of hydrogen peroxide. The lock and key analogy…

CATALASE ON HYDROGEN PEROXIDE The aim of the experiments is to see if increasing the surface area of the enzyme Catalase‚ affects the relative activity of the substrate Hydrogen peroxide. Then to observe and measure the effect the Catalase has on the chemical breakdown of the hydrogen peroxide. My theory is if you keep increasing the surface area of Catalase‚ the more active sites are available to join with the substrate causing an increase in the breakdown of the hydrogen peroxide producing

IRON (METAL) Iron is a chemical element with the symbol Fe (from Latin: ferrum) and atomic number 26. It is a metal in the first transition series. It is the most common element (by mass) forming the planet Earth as a whole‚ forming much of Earth’s outer and inner core. It is the fourth most common element in the Earth’s crust. Iron’s very common presence in rocky planets like Earth is due to its abundant production as a result of fusion in high-mass stars‚ Like other group 8 elements‚ iron

SCH4U 03/04/13 Hydrogen Bonding Purpose: The purpose of this investigation is to test the concept of hydrogen bonding. Hypothesis: Given the concept of hydrogen bonding I predict that the bulky glycerol molecules limits the number of possible hydrogen bonds. If water is mixed with glycerol should make it possible for water to form many hydrogen bonds with the glycerol molecules‚ causing it to become a exothermic reaction. Because glycerol has more possibilities for hydrogen bonding I believe
