composite has been investigated. For that purpose, the PMMA samples with Al2O3 additive prepared with different percentages(0,15,25,35 and 45) wt.% and 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…

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…

The Kinetic Molecular Theory explains why gases behave the way they do. It explains how gas particles are in constant motion and create collisions that results in pressure. The theory is split up into four different postulates. Number one explains how gases are made up of tiny particles. To prove that those particles take up space, postulate #2 tells us that the particles collide with each other and those collisions make pressure. Pressure can either expand or shrink a flexible container,…

There are small particles in the air called aerosols. They are found in fog and smoke. These particles become larger in size if two processes occur. The first process is water vapor accumulating onto a particle. The next process is cool, rising air supporting the particle. Once the aerosol particles are large enough, they become cloud droplets that will have a different mechanism of growing. Cloud droplets grow differently because they are larger in size. Instead, they grow by a new process…

For our diffusion experiment our group decided to work with salt water and gummy bears. Our experiment tested the weight of the gummy bears per salt dilutions. Our tests included 1g 2.5g 5g, 1.5g, and 10g of salt diluted with water. We knew that the higher the concentration of salt diluted into the water the heavier the diffused gummy bear would be, therefore we measure weight as our numerical data. My hypothesis was that the 10g dilution of salt would have the gummy bear with the largest…

By using the pseudo first-order kinetics method, you are able to determine the rate law for the reaction between crystal violet and hydroxide ion. crystal violet hydroxide CV+ + OH- ————> CVOH Rate=k[CV+]m [OH-]n The objective for this experiment was to analyze the absorbance of the dyed molecule crystal violet using a colorimeter and the molar absorbance of the reactant. This data was used to calculate the concentration of…

supported as the rate of reaction did increase as the concentration and the temperature increased. The concentration, or molarity, of the reactants increased in relation to time in the form M=1.1541e0.0016t. This is an accurate relationship as the volume remains the same as the number of molecules increase, thus the rate would increase exponentially as the molecules collide at a constant growth rate. This is also a reliable model as the R² value is 0.9697. The hypothesis that the reaction would…

(aq) + I2 (aq) + HCl (aq)  CH3COCH2I (aq) + HI (aq) the rate law for this reaction is, Rate = k[CH_3 COCH_3 ]^m [I_2 ]^n [HCl]^p. As supported in question 3 part A, the reaction orders m, n and p for acetone, iodine and HCL, respectively were 1, 0, 1. Resulting in an overall reaction order of 2. Manipulations were based on the usage of initial concentrations to calculation the rate constant for the reactions A-D with those values the average rate constant was calculated to be 2.0 x 10-5 M-1s-1.…

A. i) The rate of a reaction is the change of a substance’s concentration per units of time. The reaction rate of an experiment is dependent on many things including concentration, presence of a catalyst, and, most importantly, temperature. Temperature and reaction rate are directly correlated, which means that as one increases, so does the other. It is a general approximation that the rate of a reaction will increase by a factor of two for every 10°C jump in temperature. Increased temperature…
