Abstract

Introduction

In one or two laboratory sessions, students will complete three primary kinds of

kinetics experiments: the graphical approach, the method of beginning rates, and the

production of an Arrhenius equation. Students who use all three kinds of approaches to

explore a single reaction are more likely to notice how these methods connect to one

another in terms of determining the rate of a reaction, which is valuable knowledge for

them to have. An integrated pharmacokinetics experiment has also been constructed for

the dissociation of ferroin,7 however it relies more heavily on a spectrophotometer than

the previous experiment. In the past, inexpensive colorimeter circuits and Smartphone

configurations have been characterized as cost-effective alternatives to commercial

spectrophotometers for measuring solution concentrations. For the experiment described

in this paper, extremely cheap light meters with 50 mL solution quantities are used to

measure the degradation of the dye. This has the benefit of increased simplicity, as it

eliminates the need for water baths, circulators, and jacketed cells, which are required

for air temp measurements.

In order to confirm the sequence of reaction and get an accurate estimation of

the rate constant, the graphical approach of charting concentration was measured as a

function of time using the integrated rate equations may be utilized. 20 As part of our

efforts to understand the reaction between Blue 1 dye and hydrogen peroxide, we

employ the graphical method to determine the reaction order with respect to the Blue 1

dye (expressed as an integer in eq 1), and the method of initial rates to decide the

reaction pattern with respect to the hydrogen peroxide released from the sodium

percarbonate solution (expressed as y in eq 1) as determined by graphing the

relationship between Blue 1 concentration and reaction order, sodium per carbonate

concentrations are such that the hydrogen peroxide produced from the sodium service

delivery is over 1000 times greater than the Blue 1 concentration, and the hydrogen

peroxide concentration can be considered to be approximately constant throughout the

course of the reaction.

Then, if a colored substance is available, the concentration of that substance

can be determined, and this protocol can be used to track the progress of a reaction in

which the consumption of reagents or the appearance of products results in a significant

transformation in the color intensity of something like the sample solution. In particular,

the bleach reaction, which generally incorporates redox processes, serves as a great

illustration of how redox processes work. In bleaching, one of the oxidizing agents

utilized is the hypochlorite ion, which attacks primarily by adding double bonding and

aromatic rings to the bleaching solution and may also induce hydrogen abstraction.

experiments, and a bleach solution (which must have a concentration of sodium
hypochlorite indicated)
