Curated OER
Alka Rockets! An Introduction to Kinetics
Students identify the factors that influence reaction rates. In this chemistry lesson, students design an experiment to test one factor they identified. They perform the experiment and share the results to the entire class.
Curated OER
Determination of a Rate Law
Students determine the rate law for a chemical reaction. They use graphical techniques in the analysis of experimental data.
