With the Factors Affecting Reaction Rates Kinetics Laboratory Kit, students will perform a classic iodine–starch clock reaction to quantitatively investigate the effects of concentration, temperature and a catalyst on the rate of reaction.
What factors affect the rate of a chemical reaction? In this laboratory activity, students will perform the classic iodine–starch clock reaction to quantitatively investigate the effects of concentration, temperature and a catalyst on the rate of reaction. Includes reproducible student handouts, detailed background information and complete Teacher Notes with sample data, calculations and answers to questions, plus all necessary chemicals and specialized equipment.
Complete for 30 students working in pairs. Fifteen reusable, six-well reaction plates are required and available separately.
