For this experiment, when the temperature increases, collision between the particles also increases. Hence, the rate of reaction increases with increasing concentration. It was also observed that the more crowded the molecules are, the more likely they are to collide and react with one another. In addition, temperature usually has a major effect on the rate of a chemical reaction. Molecules at higher temperature have more thermal energy.
What is a thermal runaway reaction? Source: http://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/indg254.htm An exothermic reaction can lead to thermal runaway, which begins when the heat produced by the reaction exceeds the heat removed. The surplus heat raises the temperature of the reaction mass, which causes the rate of reaction to increase. This in turn accelerates the rate of heat production. Thermal runaway can occur because, as the temperature increases, the rate at which heat is removed increases linearly but the rate at which heat is produced increases exponentially.
I also predict that doubling the concentration of acid will require double the amount of alkali to reach an end point. This would be due to there being more hydrogen ions present in a more concentrated acid, and therefore more OH- ions needed to neutralise these. When concentration doubles, this means there is twice as many H+ ions; therefore twice as much alkali will be needed to balance them out. Apparatus list:
In the case of α-phase FePO4, cell parameters tend to increase exponentially as temperature increase. The volume of the metal has the tendency to increase exponentially as well. It is governed by thermal expansion coefficient α (K-1)= 2.924 x 10-5 + 2.920 x 10-10 (T-300)2. There are two factors that affect the thermal expansions: 1. Angular variations due to the changes of Fe-O-P bridging angles.
Because the rate of reaction refers to how quickly the reactants are used up or how quickly the products are formed, one method is to measure the volume of gas given off, the more gas given off per time interval results faster reactions.Question: Will the changes in substrate concentration affect the rate of anaerobic reaction? Why or why not? What are the independent variable and dependent variable in this lab activity? What are some other controlled variables? Hypothesis: If substrate concentrations are changed, then as the concentration increase, the rate of anaerobic reaction will also increase, because the increase of the reactant concentration means there are more reactant particles, and there is a greater chance for these particles to collide and let reaction happen.
Introduction The quantity of fission products in a nuclear reactor is dependent on the amount of fission occurring, which is directly related to fuel burnup. Therefore it follows that increased fuel burnup causes a rise in the quantity of fission products. Fission product behavior negatively impacts fuel performance in a number of different ways. The negative impacts on fuel performance that fission byproducts have include fuel swelling, pressure and stress on the cladding, as well as decreased thermal performance of the fuel; all of which limit the amount of burnup a reactor can undergo. The neutralization, reduction, or removal of fission products and subsequently their associated negative effects will allow for higher burnup in nuclear reactors.
This type of extractive metallurgy is called hydrometallurgy. First, the metal must be extracted by dissolving the metal in a solvent, and then the metal is removed from the solution. The waste materials are thrown out. Leeching, separating the waste and purifying the solution attained by leeching, and precipitating either the metal or a pure compound derived from the leech solution are necessary for this process of hydrometallurgy. Through these processes and skills, the chemical composition of the unknown sample can be determined.
One of the major sources of error in this experiment is that the volume of metal ball will rise while the surrounding water’s temperature rise. The metal ball has fixed amount of gas, so with higher volume the inner pressure of the metal ball will be lower. In order to reduce the error and improve this experiment, we can use a metal with lower coefficient of volume expansion. Objective: The objective of the second lab is to determine the relationship between the pressure and volume of gas with fixed temperature. Based on the Bayle’s Law, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume with fixed temperature.
The first factor that must be considered is the viscosity of the magma. This can determine how powerful an eruption is and what shape the volcano eventually becomes. Viscosity can be affected by three main factors, firstly, the higher the temperature, the lower the density of the magma, causing it to flow more easily. Secondly, the greater the amount of dissolved gases in the magma, the less viscous it will be, and lastly the higher the silica content, the more viscous it will be. Thicker, more viscous magma has a greater potential for explosive eruptions and therefore represent the greatest potential hazards.
During the explosion not only are gases produced quickly, but they are also hot, and they expand rapidly, according to Charles’ Law, which states that as the temperature of enclosed gas increases, the volume increases, if the pressure is consistent(Antonis, K. 2010). The chemical reaction the firework puts off is when [a]toms, as well as molecules, come together to form larger molecules, and larger molecules break up(Trefil, 2014). The chemical reaction also depends on the color of the firework. How do Chemists make the colors for Fireworks? When scientists make the different colors, each color has its own element.
