In order to know more about nitrate, we actually must understand what a polyatomic ion is. A polyatomic is an ion which consist of molecules, thus, it may also be referred as a molecular ion. Two or more atoms covalently bond or share electron pairs with each other to make up a polyatomic ion. Once they have bonded, they become considered as a whole single ion. Moreover, it is known to have a charge, most polyatomic ions have a negative charge but there is an exception with a positive charge. In…
For the reactive flash volatilization (RFV) process based on the knowledge that the catalyst bed is preheated to high temperature, pyrolysis of the heated cellulose particles on the surface of the bed is expected to be fast enough that it will not be a rate-limiting step. Hence, the kinetics of the RFV of cellulose reduces to gasification of the produced volatile organic compounds (VOCs) on and in the catalyst bed. To represent the RFV of the VOCs from flash pyrolysis of cellulose, Aspen Plus…
the end of the long road I end up striving for Chemical Engineer. My decision was based off of many different reason, the greatest being my childhood life. The global demands for occupations such as chemical engineering keeps on growing for many different aspect of fascination as well as necessity to improve many societies. Many people might ask why anyone would desire a job where an individual is asked to sit in a lap and observe all the chemical reactions and even question how it…
Introduction This extended experimental investigation (EEI) investigated the effect in which concentration had on the rate of reaction. The purpose of this experiment is to test different concentrations of hydrochloric acid with sodium thiosulfate and to see how long it would take until the cross underneath the flask is no longer visible through the milky white solution. Collision theory A collision is when two or more object run into each other. But collision theory is, that only some…
Coffactors Abstact Chemical reaction are a part of every ones life there no dening it this fact. But is there a way to increase these reations and make processed like reasperation and metablolism faster. That is exactly what cofactors are beleived to do, increasing the rate of reaction. In this experirment lactase, ONPG, EDTA, and phosphate buffer are used to determine wether or not cofactors really increase the rate of chemical reation. To measure the reaction a spectrometer will be used.…
a. Potential Rating or Scoring Errors The following are some of the commonly occurring errors: o Halo effect – tendency to allow a positive (or desirable) quality, trait, or feature of an individual to enhance the appraisal ratings o Horn effect – tendency to allow a negative (or undesirable) quality, trait, or feature of an individual to taint the appraisal ratings o Rater Bias – tendency to allow individual differences (or personal characteristics) such as age, race, religion, disability, and…
The Effect of Decreased Amounts of DOPA on the Production of Dopachrome Intro Enzymes are a catalyst, typically a protein, that affects the rate of a chemical reaction. They allow these complex reactions to occur at a low temperature with less energy usage. In enzyme-catalyzed reactions, a substrate, the substance to be acted upon, binds to the active site on an enzyme to form the product. The active site is the only part of the enzyme that reacts with the substrate. For the substrate to become…
Research Question This lab will be driven by the research question, do changes in temperature (4oC, 25oC, 37oC, 50oC and 70oC) have an effect on the reaction rate of enzyme amylase and starch? Hypothesis As the temperature increases, the enzyme will have a quicker reaction time with the starch, therefore when met with the iodine, no change will occur in the colour of the solution, showing that the starch is now absent. The enzyme amylase and starch solution in 4oC and 25oC will change the colour…
In every society there are rules and guidelines needed to operate properly. Without these expectations, groups of the society wouldn’t know how to act when an encounter with others or know how to behave. These are called norms. Norms are social expectations that guide behavior. Norms explain why people do what they do in given situations. When these norms are broken they are often met with sanctions. Sanctions are the reactions people receive when breaking a norm, they can either be expressions…
This enzyme also catalyzes the hydrolysis of a phosphate group connected to lipids in vivo or to proteins (Wilson et al., 2015). There are three major reasons that enzymes are important. The first reason is that enzymes speed up chemical reactions, and every chemical reaction…
