Sodium Bicarbonate Sulfuric Acid
865 wordsNitroglycerin (C 3 H 5 N 3 O 9) Nitroglycerin is one of the most sensitive explosives ever to be commercially produced. It is a very dense liquid, and is sensitive to heat, impact, and many organic materials. Although it is not water soluble, it will dissolve in 4 parts of pure ethyl alcohol. Heat of Combustion: 1580 cal / g Products of Explosion: Carbon Dioxide, Water, Nitrogen, Oxygen Human Toxicity: Highly toxic vasodilator, avoid skin contact! Although it is possible to make it safely, it is...

Observations Mass Volume Egg Volume Of Egg Volume Water
856 wordsWe recently did an experiment on osmosis and it really helped me understand diffusion and osmosis much better. This experiment was really easy. We put the egg into three different types of liquids, vinegar, corn syrup, and water. My hypotheses for the egg in the vinegar was that the shell would be removed and dissolve. For the corn syrup I thought that the whole egg would break apart including the including the yolk. My hypothesis for the water was that nothing will happen to the egg. 1. Get egg...

Cooling Rate Of Coffee
1,679 wordsExperiments to Determine the Cooling Rate of Coffee, when Milk should be Added and what Container should be Used The aim of the first experiment was to find out and record the cooling rate of coffee under three different conditions and thus showing when milk should be added assuming you have a phone call. The three different conditions were chosen because these were the most likely situations encounter by someone who is making a cup of coffee. We used Tain instruments to accurately calculate the...

Concentration And Reaction Rate
1,776 wordster> How concentration affects reaction rate. The aim of this investigation is to see how the concentration of a reactant in ratio to the reactor affects the rate of a reaction. When hydrochloric acid and Thiosulphate react together sulphur is liberated this means that as the reaction goes on the solution will become yellow and will change from being transparent to translucent to opaque. The sulphur is formed as a solid but not in the usual precipitation way. Na 2 + S 2 + 2 HCL 2 NaCl+...

Amount Of Energy Oxygen Atoms
1,983 wordsPlanning In this investigation I will be burning alcohols to heat up a beaker of water. I will be burning five alcohols, methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol and pentanol. The aim is to find out how much energy is produced when burning these alcohols. An alcohol is a series of organic homologous compounds, with the general formula Cn H n + 1 OH´ . Alcohols react with oxygen in the air to form water and carbon dioxide. The reaction that is involved in burning alcohols is exothermic because ...

Rate Of Reaction Bunsen Burner
2,301 wordsFor this investigation I am going to investigate the effect of the concentration of an enzyme, in this case Amylase, on the time taken for the enzyme to fully breakdown the substrate, which in this case is starch. The reason why these two enzymes have to be used is because each enzyme is designed specifically to break down only one substrate as each enzyme is made of a protein that causes it to be a specific shape, in this case the enzyme Amylase can only break down starch to dextrin. I am going...

Carbon Dioxide Measuring Cylinder
3,019 wordsAim 1 To find Fermentation Aims Aim 1 To find out what factors affect how quickly bread dough rises. There are a number of factors that affect how quickly bread dough rises. These are: · Amount of sugar-if the amount of sugar is increased, the rate of reaction will increase. Adding a higher concentration of sugar will increase the sugar particles in a given space. As the mixture is heated, the sugar particles will begin to move. Due to a lack of space, this would result in collisions. Thu...
