Kinetics of Hydrogen Peroxide

The results from Calculations 1 and 2 can be utilized in Eq. 3 to determine the final percent yield for the experiment, and this is shown in Calculation 3.

In this Chemistry Lab the main objective is to perform accurate chemical analysis for the quantity of elements and compounds in a sample. There will be a compound made then synthesized. The methods used were acid-base titrations, redox titrations, gravity filtration, and distillation. General conclusions included

Enzymes speed up metabolic reactions necessary for life. Without them certain vital processes would not take place and the body would be unable to function.

The topic of this lab is on biochemistry.This experiment was conducted to show how cells prevent the build of hydrogen peroxide in tissues. My group consisted of Lekha, Ruth, and Jason. There were used two different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide through this experiment , 1.5% and 3%. By testing two different types it is easier to understand how the H2O2 and catalase react with one another. To do this both the yeast, which was our catalase, and H2O2 were mixed together in a beaker. Each concentration was tested out twice for more accurate results . 1.5% concentrated H2O2 had an average reaction rate of 10.5 seconds while 3% concentrated H2O2 had an average reaction rate of 7.5 seconds. From this experiment we learned that by increasing the concentration of H2O2 and chemically combining it with a catalase it will speed up the reaction. Enzymes speed up chemical reactions . The independent variable in this experiment was the concentration of the H2O2. Some key vocabulary words are Catalase, enzyme, hydrogen peroxide ( H2O2), and concentration.

Drop the yeast sphere into the graduated cylinder. As soon as the sphere touches the surface of the hydrogen peroxide, start the timer. Each person should be responsible for a concentration.

The rate of a chemical reaction often depends on reactant concentrations, temperature, and if there’s presence of a catalyst. The rate of reaction for this experiment can be determined by analyzing the amount of iodine (I2) formed. Two chemical reactions are useful to determining

The purpose of this experiment was to simply measure oxygen production rates released from decomposed hydrogen peroxide under different conditions (concentration of enzymes, temperature, and PH level).

1. The time for the phenolphthalein to turn from pink to colourless will be taken using the stopwatch.

For each of the 3 acceptable trials, enter the precise volume in milliliters of sodium thiosulfate solution used in

After the twenty minutes elapsed, the flask was cooled to room temperature and then titrated with the remaining NaOH until the colorless solution remained pink. The final volume was then recorded. While solution #1 was heating the same process was repeated with solution#2 and the second burette

In this week’s lab experiment, the rate of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide forming oxygen gas will be observed and studied. Since the rate of a chemical reaction is dependent on two things; the concentrations of the reactants and the temperature at which the process is performed, the rate can be measured at which a reactant disappears or at which a product appears. When measuring the rate, the rate law will be applied. The objective of this lab is to demonstrate how the rate changes with varying initial concentrations of hydrogen peroxide by measuring the rate at which oxygen is evolved.

This experiment will measure the rate of oxidation of iodide ions by persulphate ions to derive the rate law for the reaction. Starch will be added to the reaction to facilitate the measure of time during the reaction. The reactant solutions will contain (NH4)2SO4 and KI, represented as:

The process was then repeated for the second reaction but using 1.00-mL of a 6.00-M phosphoric acid solution and 4.00-mL of a 3.00-M sodium hydroxide solution.
