tablet was dropped into the water, it began to fizz and make the water look like a carbonated drink such as Sprite. Carbon Dioxide is the gas that humans exhale and what is produced with Alka-Seltzer and water react, the chemical equation of the reaction is, (H2O + C6H8O7 + 3NaHCO3…
indicated that an inclusion complex in a molar stoichiometric ratio of 1:1 was formed between the drug and β-CD in solution. The stability constant (718.58 M–1), computed from the slope and intercept of the phase solubility diagram, indicated considerable interaction between the hydrophobic drug and the hydrophobic cavity of β-CD. The values of stability constants described in the literature ranged from 100 to 20,000 M–1 for…
help catalyze numerous reactions in the body. They are an arrangement of proteins designed to serve very specific roles. Enzymes contain active sites that substrates bind to. The enzymes then help orient those substrates so they achieve ideal reaction conditions. As a result, substrates are broken down much faster than they would on their own (Lawless 2016). Due to the fact that so many different arrangements of proteins are possible, it’s no surprise that so many reactions in the body are all…
The Rate of Chemical Reaction and the Factors Affecting Reaction Rates The purpose of these labs is to investigate and determine how three factors- concentration, temperature, and a catalyst- affect the rate of a chemical reaction. In the first lab, “Rate of Chemical Reaction,” 1 x 8-well micro strips were used to combine a potassium iodate solution and a sodium meta-bisulfite solution under different conditions; each trial was timed from the point of the first visible reaction until the last…
Research Question: How do different concentrations of nitric acid (measured in molars) with copper powder (grams) affect the rate of reaction (measured in seconds) measured using a stopwatch? Hypothesis: The copper powder placed in the most concentrated amount of nitric acid, measured in molar, will take the least amount of time, measured in seconds, to react compared to the amounts of copper powder in other less concentrated amounts of nitric acid. This is as if the concentration of nitric acid…
The synthesis of Aa-g-poly(MAA) involve the optimization of various reaction conditions like initiator concentration, monomer concentration, crosslinker concentration, solvent concentration and pH. After the optimization of various reaction parameters the replications were carried-out in triplicates for the reproducibility of the results and statistical of the results obtained. It was performed using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 10. Statistical results of the…
different thickness. The experimental results showed that the D.C electrical conductivity increased with increasing the alumina concentrations and temperature. Also the activation energy change with increasing of additional alumina. The dielectric constant, dielectric loss, A.C electrical conductivity are changed with change the concentration of the filler and frequency of applied electrical field. Keywords: Composites, poly-methyl methacrylate, Electrical Properties. Introduction In order to…
1. Redox Catalyst Catalyst is defined as a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without changing its chemical composition and affecting the standard Gibbs free energy, by lowering the activation energy of a chemical reaction. It does so by providing an alternative reaction pathway. In redox reaction, the key chemical event is the net movement of electrons from one reactant to the other. The oxidation state of atoms are changed. Transition metal is used as redox catalyst due…
of the trials treated with 1.0mL fertilizer will be higher than those treated with 0.5mL or 0.0mL. Although wastewaters contain elements which are vital for the Spirulina growth, as it contain other unknown substances as well, its influence on the rate of growth of the Spirulina's cannot be unambiguously hypothesized. Since bicarbonate and sodium carbonate were not added to the effluent water but only to the portable water, it is assumed that the higher concentration of the…
Chemical thermodynamics is the study of the interrelation of heat and work with chemical reactions or with physical changes of state within the confines of the laws of thermodynamics. It involves not only laboratory measurements of various thermodynamic properties, but also the application of mathematical methods to the study of chemical questions and the spontaneity of processes. The structure of chemical thermodynamics is based on the first two laws of thermodynamics. Starting from the first…
