Week 2: Chemical Kinetics 2 Overview Getting Started Techniques Procedure FAQ Full Lab Manual Introduction & Goals Chemistry & Background Key Questions Prelab Problems Safety Procedure In Your Write-up Experiments Index ChemLab Home		Goals In this week's lab, you will further analyze the results of last week's experiments and you will carry out experiments to determine the temperature dependence of the reaction rate constant. To Learn or Review Reaction Rates Zumdahl, pp. 685-690 Rate Laws Zumdahl, pp. 690-708 Reaction Mechanisms Zumdahl, pp. 708-714 Model for Kinetics Zumdahl, pp. 717-722 Introduction Last week you determined the experimental rate law for the iodination of cyclohexanone and evaluated the proposed mechanism for the reaction. This week, you will calculate the reaction rate constant from last week's results. You will also measure the reaction rate and determine the rate constant for a variety of temperatures, to determine the reaction's activation energy.
