Introduction The reaction rate of a chemical reaction is determined as the change in the concentration of a reactant or product over the change in time. [1] The rate of a reaction is determined by experiment. Many factors influence the rate of a reaction: the nature of the reaction‚ concentration‚ pressure‚ temperature‚ and surface area‚ presence of catalyst and intensity of light. [2] For a chemical reaction‚ the rate law or rate equation is a mathematical expressed equation that links the reaction rate with

Experiment 1: Calorimetry INTRODUCTION In the calibration of the calorimeter‚ the net ionic equation used is H+(aq) + OH-(aq) H2O(l). The reaction released heat and is said to be exothermic. HCl is the limiting reactant of the reaction and o.oo5 moles of it was used. The heat generated by the reaction is 55.8 kJ. The sign of T of the reaction used for calibration is opposite to that of H. In the determination of heats of reaction‚ the reaction of 15 mL 1 M CuSO4 + 0.05 g Zn produced a

HOW FAST ARE CHEMICAL REACTIONS? THEORY The study of reaction rates‚ how fast or how slow a reaction takes place‚ is known as chemical kinetics. The rate of chemical reactions varies greatly. Some reactions‚ such as the explosion of an atom bomb are uncontrollable. Reactions like the decay of radioactive carbon (14C) are so slow that it takes centuries to see any noticeable change. Between the two extremes are reactions that can be measured in the laboratory. There are several factors that

difference between a mixture and a compound. A compound is a substance in which atoms of different elements are chemically held to one another. A mixture is a substance made by combining two or more different materials in such a way that no chemical reaction occurs. A mixture can usually be separated back into its original components‚ a compound cannot. Below are some examples of the differences between each. Compounds •Compounds are pure substances. •They are made up of two or more elements combined

Mole Ratio of a Chemical Reaction: Copper & Silver Nitrate Lab #4 OBJECTIVE In this experiment‚ you will determine the number of moles of reactants and products present in the reaction of copper and silver nitrate‚ and calculate their mole-to-mole ratio. The mole-to-mole ratio relating to the disappearance of copper and the formation of silver metal will be used to write the balanced equation for the reaction. The reaction of copper metal with silver nitrate solution is a single

Oscillating chemical reaction Aim: The overall reaction rate and concentrations of some reaction intermediates of certain chemical reactions oscillate‚ even in a homogeneous system. This phenomenon is commonly found in living organisms. These periodical variations occur when a feedback mechanism is available in which a product changes the reaction rate. In this experiment will produce oscillations in both time and space in the concentrations of cerium(IV) and cerium(III) in the BZ reaction. Use the

Chemical equations are the symbolic representations of chemical reactions that are made up of reactants and products. It is made up of the chemical formulas of the reactants and the chemical formula of the products. The reactants are the substances or chemicals that takes part in during a reaction and the products are the chemicals are the substances that result from the chemical reaction. Reactants are on the left side of the chemical equation and the products are on the right side of the chemical

Introduction What is chemical change? Chemical change is the alteration of a substance into one or more different substances with different properties (also called chemical reaction). The four different types of chemial reations are synthesis‚ decomposition‚ single displacement‚ and double displacement. Synthesis is when atoms and/or molecules combine to form larger molecules. Decomposition is when a large molecules are split into elements or smaller molecules. Single Displacement has an element
