KIT RATE LAW OF THE FADING OF A DYE BEERS LAW AP LAB #11

Students will determine the rate law for the reaction of crystal violet and sodium hydroxide. Students will also prepare dilutions of stock crystal violet solutions to generate a Beer’s law calibration curve. This lab will require students to integrate prior chemistry knowledge involving spectroscopy, Beer’s law, solution dilution, calibration curves, and chemical kinetics. The activity contains enough materials for 15 groups of students as well as a Teacher’s Guide and Student Study Guide Copymasters. Meets Big Idea 4, Investigation 11, Primary Learning Objective 4.2. Kit Includes: 1500mL Crystal Violet, 1% 1500mL Sodium Hyroxide, 0.2M 1000mL Deionized Water Materials needed but not supplied: Pipet Bulbs Pipets Spectrophotometers w/ Cuvettes Stopwatches or Lab Timers DOT Info: UN1824, Sodium hydroxide solution, 8, II, Ltd Qty WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including Crystal Violet, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer.
