Colligative property- characteristic of a solution that does not depend on size or type of particl...

BACKGROUND INFORMATION What affects the rate of reaction? 1) The surface area of the magnesium. 2) The temperature of the reaction. 3) Concentration of the hydrochloric acid. 4) Presence of a catalyst. In the experiment we use hydrochloric acid which reacts with the magnesium to form magnesium chlor...

Is Love a Mechanism of Evolution? Upon reading the articles and summary's of Helen Fisher and Jeffery Reber I have concluded that Love can be explained as in a collection of Emotions, release of certain chemicals, but mainly something that has to happen over time. A relationship has to deve...

Chemistry Coursework Rate of reaction Aim: Plan an investigation into the rate of reaction between Sodium thiosulphate and hydrochloric acid. Background information: • The equation for the rate of reaction is 1/time. • The rate of reaction measures the speed of reaction. It is ...

A physical change occurs when an object goes through a change that doesn't alter its chemical nature. A physical change involves a change in physical properties. Physical properties can be observed or measured with out changing the type of matter. A physical property doesn't describe a change; it t...
