Document Summary

Refer to the pre-lab report on pages one through three of my laboratory notebook for the procedure to this experiment. All tables according to room temperature of 21 . Mass of beaker and 30 drops of water (g) Average mass of a single drop of water (g) Discussion: in this experiment, we learned how to measure volumes using volumetric equipment such as graduated cylinders, pipets, and burets. We also learned how precise each instrument is and how to minimize the systematic error. For part a, my volume measurements using a pipet were both accurate and precise because all three values were similar to each other, as well as close to the actual value (pipet: 25. 00ml, calculated average: 25. 11ml). In part b, the graduated cylinder values were accurate but not precise. My values (99. 560 ml, 99. 466 mlg, 99. 097 ml) were not close to one another, but all close to the actual measurement which was 100 ml.

Experiment 1: Calculating Rate of Reaction

In this experiment you will calculate the rate of reaction of potassium iodide and hydrogen peroxide. The order of the reaction will also be determined.

15 mL Iodine-Potassium Iodide Solution, IKI (1% Iodine, 2% Potassium Iodide)
100 mL Beaker
10 mL Graduated cylinder
100 mL Graduated cylinder
250 mL Beaker
(2) 250 mL Erlenmeyer flasks
1-Hole Rubber stopper
2-Hole Rubber stopper
(2) 3 in. Rigid tubing pieces
(1) 6 in. Rigid tubing
6 Pipettes

Stopwatch
Permanent marker
Waste beaker (any volume)
*Access to graphing software
*Access to a computer
*24 in. Flexible tubing
*Water
*10 mL Distilled water

* You must provide

*You must cut this piece of tubing into two, 12 inch pieces. (if you have not already done so).

Procedure

Preparation of Apparatus

Set up apparatus as shown in Figure 2. To do this, begin by labeling the Erlenmeyer Flasks as 1 and 2. The reaction will take place in Flask 1.

Fill Flask 2 approximately three quarters of the way full with water.

Press the 2-hole rubber stopper into the top of Flask 2. Place one three in. piece and one six in. piece of rigid tubing into each hole of the rubber stopper. This should create an airtight system.

Place the one-hole stopper on Flask 1, and fit the remaining 3 in. piece of rigid tubing in the stopper hole.

Connect Flask 1 and Flask 2 with the two, 12 in flexible tubing pieces. One piece should connect Flask 1 to Flask 2, and the second piece should connect Flask 2 to the graduated cylinder. The tubing which connects Flask 2 to the graduated cylinder should be positioned low enough to be immersed in the water in Flask 2.

Figure 2: Apparatus set-up. Note this is a sample set-up and is not drawn to scale. Your specific equipment may vary slightly.

Part A: Preparation of Reactants

Pour five mL of the IKI solution into a 10 mL graduated cylinder.

Add five mL of distilled water to the graduated cylinder to bring the total volume to 10 mL. This is the 0.5% - 1.0% (diluted) IKI solution.

Pour 15 mL of 3% H₂O₂ solution into a 100 mL beaker.

Add five mL of distilled water to this beaker and mix with a stir rod. This is the 2.25% (diluted) H₂O₂ solution.

Part B: Performing the Reaction

Remove the stopper from Flask 1 and place five mL of the 3% (undiluted) H2O2 solution and 10 mL of the undiluted IKI solution provided into the flask. Immediately replace the stopper on the flask.
Note: At this point, you should select an extra beaker (any volume) from your lab kit to use as an supplemental collection container beaker for Step 6. You do not need to use the beaker yet, but keep it in close proximity.

Swirl Flask 1 until you observe a steady dripping of water going into the 10 mL graduated cylinder. This could take 3 - 5 minutes. Check for leaks in the tubing or system if water does not start rising up the plastic tubing coming from Flask 2 and traveling towards the graduated cylinder within one minute.

Stop swirling Flask 1 when you notice the steady flow of water droplets. When you stop, the water drop -rate will significantly decrease (to around one drop every 5 - 20 seconds) and could take a few minutes to stabilize. If a steady flow of drops of water does not occur within a few minutes, swirl Flask 1 for 1 more minute and check again. Repeat this process until there is a steady flow of drops of water after you have stopped swirling Flask 1.

Quickly empty liquid that has collected in the 10 mL graduated cylinder and replace the empty cylinder back under the flexible tubing.

Allow the flow of drops to become steady again. This could take 1 - 3 mL of water.

Start timing once the drop rate is steady and the volume of water collected is at a whole number (such as three mL). Record the time in Table 1 each time 2 mL of is water displaced. Continue taking data until you have at least 10 data points (20 mL displaced).
Note: Use the extra beaker (located in Part B: Step 1) to collect additional fluid when the volume of displaced water exceeds 10 mL.

Return the collected water from your 10 mL graduated cylinder to Flask 2. Ensure the seal is air tight.

Empty, clean and dry Flask 1 and the graduated cylinder.

Repeat Steps 1 - 8 for the following trial conditions: 5 mL 3% (undiluted) H₂O₂ mixed with 10 mL of 0.5%-1.0% IKI solution (placed in Flask 1); and, 5 mL of 2.25% H₂O₂ mixed with 10 mL of 1.0%-2.0% IKI solution (placed in Flask 1). Record the data in Table 2 and Table 3, respectively.
Note: Clean the graduated cylinder and extra collection beaker before it is used to measure any additional reagents for Trial 2 or Trial 3; and, before it is used for collecting the water from the reaction in the apparatus.

Use a graphing software program to make a graph of each trial. The graph should demonstrate the relationship formed between time vs. mL of water displaced.

Find and record the slope and the inverse slope for each trial.
