Aim:
To find out the relationship between the greater concentration of sodium thiosulfate when mixed with hydrochloric acid and the time it takes for the reaction (the time it takes for the solution to turn cloudy) to take place and to show the effect on the rate of reaction when the concentration of one of the reactants change.

Introduction:
The theory of this experiment is that sodium thiosulfate and hydrochloric acid reach together to produce sulfur as one of its products. Sulfur is a yellow precipitate so, the solution will turn to yellow color while the reaction is occurring and it will continue until it will slowly turn completely opaque. The reaction of the experiment happens with this formula: “Na2 S2 O3 + HCL = …show more content…

With this small change (by 51.4 seconds), it can be concluded that there is a relationship between the different temperatures of sodium solution and the time it takes for the ice cube to melt in the sodium solution.
The raw data graph also has a c or the y intercept of 64.24 seconds and the R2 value is 0.97281. R2 value is a fraction between 0.0 and 1.0, and has no units. An R2 value of 0.0 means that knowing X does not help you predicts Y. There is no linear relationship between X and Y, and the best-fit line is a horizontal line going through the mean of all Y values. When R2 equals 1.0, all points lie exactly on a straight line with no scatter. Knowing X lets you predict Y perfectly. (http://www.graphpad.com/guides/prism/6/curve-fitting/index.htm?r2_ameasureofgoodness_of_fitoflinearregression.htm) In this graph the R2 value is 0.97 which can be rounded off to 1.0 which means that knowing X which in this case is the different concentrations of sodium thiosulfate, predicts the Y which is the time the time the solution turns cloudy resulting X not to be seen from the opening of the conical flask from a person’s eye

Our group had to study Poliomyelitis and we each researched different parts to get data such as when the vaccine was created, how many people were infected the year before the vaccination, the number of infections this year, and so on. Our group project displayed obvious decay, whereas my individual situation was a slight decay. The graph of my individual assignment appeared linear because the rate was so slight. My indiviidual project was based on the decay of HIV/AIDS, but the number of new cases of HIV/AIDS only decreases very slightly each year in the U.S., .03% to be exact. I based my equation on the number of new cases in 2010 and 2012, which gave me the equation of y=47,500(.997)X. 47,500 was the starting number or the number of cases in 2010, I got the number .997 by subtracting the rate (.003) from the number 1, and the x represents a

In this lab we were trying to figure out if Salt Creek and Barker Lake had the correct chemical balances to sustain catfish for the years coming. In order to find this out, we tested the water using a Hach Water Testing Kit. Inside were dissolved oxygen reagent powder pillows 1, 2 and 3 which we added and mixed into our sample water to prepare it for testing. Then we added droplets of Sodium Thiosulphate Solution into the prepared water too see how much dissolved oxygen parts per million were in the water. Our independent variable in this experiment was the 5 different testing sites that we went to for water samples.

In order to begin this experiment, first one must find the balanced chemical equation for the reaction which occurs between the aluminum and copper (II) chloride. This balanced equation being 2Al(s)+3CuCl2 (aq)3Cu(s)+2AlCl3 (aq). After finding this equation, one must use the process of stoichiometry in order to find how many grams of aluminum are needed in order to produce 0.15 grams of copper. In this experiment, the purpose was to produce between 0.1 and 0.2 grams of copper, so one should attempt to produce 0.15 grams of copper seeing as it is the average of those two numbers. The first step in the stoichiometric process which one has to complete is finding how many grams of copper are in one mole of copper.

The results do not support the hypothesis that a higher surface area to volume ratio would result in sulphuric acid being diffused into the agar cubes in the shortest amount of time. This is evident in the results as the exact opposite to what was predicted occurred. Instead of the smallest cube with the largest surface area to volume ratio of 1cm3 having the quickest diffusion rate, it conversely took the longest at 0.092 cm3 per second, whilst the 2cm3 cube with 0.0384 cm3 per second took the least amount of time. This directly refutes the hypothesis. There was also no consistent trend evident in the results.

The predicted and experimental responses are compared in order to validate the model and to calculate the prediction error. The prediction error was found to be below 7% indicating that the observed responses were very close to the predicted values. Percentage prediction error is useful in constituting the validity of generated equations and describes how close the predicted responses to that of actual values. The values of <15 are desirable to have closeness of the predicted values with the actual values

Use these results to determine the product concentration, using Beer-Lambert’s Law: A= ɛCl (where A is the absorbance, ɛ is the molar absorptivity, C is the product concentration and l is the length of solution that the light passes through). Calculate the product concentrations at every minute for 10 minutes for all 7 of the test tubes using Beer-Lambert’s Law. Plot a graph of product concentration vs. time and then use the gradients of the 7 test tubes to determine the velocities of the reaction. After calculating the velocities, plot a Michaelis-Menten graph of velocity vs. substrate concentration.

CLAIRE MUNTING 29/01/2018 Criterion C EFFECTS OF SURFACE AREA OF CALCIUM CARBONATE UPON RATE OF REACTION Calcium Carbonate Chips 1 Introduction: Within the current investigation, the effects of the surface area of Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) in combination with Hydrochloric acid (HCl) upon its rate of reaction. CaCO3, commonly referred to as limestone, is an organic substance and is, in a sense, the crystallised “carbonic salt” of the element, calcium2. In addition to being a salt, the pH level of Calcium Carbonate is 9.91, and it is therefore, a basic substance, due to the fact that it is comprised of a pH level higher than 7, which is neutral3. HCl, however, is the bodily acid found in the stomach of human beings.
