# 18 Determination of the Set Time for Epoxy Adhesive

For Teachers Higher Ed
Students recognize epoxy glue formation as two part polymerization (usually the curing agents act as co-monomers). They monitor the reaction by the changes in viscosity of the reacting mass, the temperature rise and fall, and the...

The Effects of Temperature on Rate

For Teachers 9th - 12th
Students create predictions on what they believe happen to reaction rates when temperature is raised. They use hot, cold, and room temperature water for this experiment and observe the differences. They graph their observations and...

Effect of Concentration of the Reactants

For Teachers 11th - 12th
Students experiment to determine the effect of the frequency of collisions between atoms or ions of the reactants. They investigate the rate at which aluminum replaces hydrogen from a solution of hydrochloric acid.
