Reaction Rates
Student will see how the decomposition of nitrogen dioxide creates nitric oxide and oxygen. Students and/or teacher will use this to demonstrate how you would find the reaction rates using the numbers that are given in the problem, and then maybe using numbers that they obtain on their own with ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/reaction-rates
Law of Definite Proportions
The law of definite proportions states that a chemical compound always contains exactly the same proportion of elements by mass. The French chemist Joseph Proust conducted several experiments between 1798 and 1804 to make this discovery. At the time (before Dalton had proposed his atomic theory)...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/law-of-definite-proportions
Designing a Reaction Rate Experiment
In this activity, students will design, conduct, and report the outcome of an experiment in which they investigate some factor that affects the rate of reaction between baking soda and vinegar. The dynamic nature of the reaction, coupled with a wide range of possible choices of independent varia...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/designing-a-reaction-rate-experiment
Call it ...Dominant or Recessive
