Reaction rate

Question 1- The difference between deflagaration and a detonation is that deflagaration consists of rapid reaction when heat is progressively transferred from reacting material to another nearby. The temperature increases until the material that is nearby reacts too. Deflagaration does not occur as fast as speed of sound. Meanwhile, detonation occurs when the velocity of reaction through the reacting material reaches sonic or supersonic speed, meaning that detonation is quicker than…

If muscle membrane potentials vary as a function of ionic composition of the extracellular solution, changes in [K+]o should alter VM values. Moreover, EK, given by the Nernst equation, should accurately predict changing VM values. As extracellular potassium concentration is systematically increased, membrane voltage should be rendered more positive (less negative). Indeed, if [K+]i is 140 mM (according to Bernstein’s model), extracellular [K+] much smaller than 140 mM (e.g., 5.4 mM, 10 mM)…

1. Distinguish between a chemical change and a physical change. Illustrate each using several examples. A physical change does not change the substance of the matter the identity does not change. A chemical change produces a new substance and absorbs or liberated heat. Chemical changes produce an indication of chemical change substances combine chemically producing new substances that cannot separated by physical means. Examples of physical changes: Dissolving salt in water is a physical…

What are the physical measurements? Physical properties allow for objects to be measured with color, density, and its melting point. Chemical properties are the way a substance changes, an example is combustion. Other examples are mass measurements, temperature (based upon standards, melting and boiling points of water), and light measurements. What is density? Density is the amount of mass per unit volume. What is Algor Mortis, Rigor Mortis, and Livor Mortis? The Algor Mortis is the drop…

this was caused by the enzyme having to break apart a heightened amount of substrates in the mixed test tubes. This caused the initial data to yield a quicker reaction (on the basest of browning in color) compared to the altered data. The independent variable of this experiment was time, while the dependent variable was the color as the reaction is completely dependent on the duration of time. There were numerous potentially sources of error during this experiment. The seconds between beginning…

to the reaction between acidified potassium iodide and hydrogen peroxide. Before calculating the rate of this reaction, the reaction will be carried out 3 times and values will be got. A special timer will be used to measure the time. It could be expected and argued that each time will be able differ from the others in each reaction and it can be explained by changing the quantity of hydrogen peroxide. At the final, it will be obviously observed that there will be some differences in the rate…

experiment is to find out on how the independent variable which is the temperature changes that reaction rate of the magnesium and hydrochloric acid (HCI). Hypothesis: - As the concentration increases, the rate of reaction increases as well. Variables: - The independent variable is the volume of hydrochloric acid - The dependent variable is variable is the volume of the hydrochloric acid and the duration of reaction. - The controlled variables are length of the strip of magnesium metal,…

was highly influenced on the reaction rate, when the particle size of the catalyst was decreased, therefore their surface areas was increased and the ratio of catalyst surface and reactant volume was playing a crucial role for controlling the reaction kinetics. The reaction was takes place on the surface of a substance, increasing the surface area should increases the quantity of the substance that is available to react, and will thus increase the rate of the reaction as well. The size and shape…

INVESTIGATE AN ASPECT OF REDOX SYSTEM/REACTION Research Question: Does a higher voltage lead to more mass on graphite? INTRODUCTION Hypothesis: Higher voltage leads to more mass amassed on graphite electrode. Electrolysis- the process in which electric current passes through a solution to effect a chemical change. In this case there is copper, copper sulphate and graphite. In a electrolysis there is an electrolyte which is the copper sulphate, the anode which is the graphite. This is the…

1. Iodide proved to be the more reactive nucleophile in this reaction. This nucleophile was faster than Chloride, because on the periodic table, Iodine has a bigger atomic size, while Chlorine has the higher electronegativity, but size trumps electronegativity, as according to ARIO rules. This means that Iodine is more acidic than Chlorine, which means that in the reaction, the Iodide could displace the Bromine from the 1-bromooctane, because it has a bigger size, much faster than the Chloride,…
