Addresses AP® Chemistry Big Idea 4 and Learning Objective 4.2. Determine orders of reaction, calculate reaction rate constants, and write rate laws for the oxidation of 4 food dyes. Students mix a food dye with bleach and monitor the solution's absorbance over time. From their Beer-Lambert graph of absorbance versus time, students write an integrated rate law for the reaction and calculate the reaction's rate constant. Materials sufficient for 30 students working in pairs.

Overview

  • Aligned with Big Idea 4 and Learning Objective 4.2
  • Emphasizes Science Practices 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7

Determine orders of reaction, calculate reaction rate constants, and write rate laws for the oxidation of 4 food dyes. Teach this laboratory experience using either the guided activity or inquiry activity. In the guided activity, students mix a food dye with bleach and monitor the solution's absorbance over time. From their Beer-Lambert graph of absorbance as a function of time, students determine the order of the dye and the sodium hypochlorite and use the slope to calculate a pseudo rate constant. Students then use their data to determine the overall order of the reaction, write an integrated rate law for the reaction, and calculate the reaction's rate constant. In the inquiry activity, students design an experiment to determine the overall order of reaction, rate law, and rate constant for the oxidation of a food dye by sodium hypochlorite. Both activities include Big Idea assessment questions that follow the format of the AP® Chemistry Exam free-response questions. In the Big Idea assessment, students must determine the overall order of reaction, rate law, and rate constant for a new reaction with data provided. They must also design an experiment to determine these parameters given only the reaction.

This kit provides the following AP® Chemistry experiences: design a procedure to collect data, analyze data, plot data, and use instruments to measure absorbance. The use of commercial food dyes and bleach gives this experiment visual appeal and a connection to the real world. Required but not included: spectrophotometer or colorimeter. Materials are sufficient for 30 students working in pairs. Digital teacher's manual, included FREE with kit purchase, is a 12-month eBook license to the Chemical Kinetics teacher's manual. You can also access the digital student guide for this kit for free at Carolina Science Online®.

Carolina Investigations® for AP® Chemistry: Kits That Support the AP® Curriculum

Carolina Investigations® for AP* Chemistry Kits

If you are an AP® teacher, you go out of your way to help your students perform successfully on the AP® Exam. Carolina Investigations® for AP® Chemistry Kits are specifically designed to help you do just that.

Carolina Investigations® for AP® Chemistry kits are specifically designed to meet the goals of the revised AP® Chemistry curriculum. That curriculum and our kit series center on 6 overarching BIG ideas, which provide the themes for an enhanced laboratory experience focused on inquiry-based, student-directed learning:

  • Big Idea 1: Atoms
  • Big Idea 2: Chemical and Physical Properties
  • Big Idea 3: Changes in Matter
  • Big Idea 4: Rates of Chemical Reactions
  • Big Idea 5: Thermodynamics
  • Big Idea 6: Chemical Equilibrium

The AP® Chemistry curriculum emphasizes science practices, which allow students to use the tools of scientists to discover, test, and explain natural phenomena. The science practices of AP® Chemistry are integrated into each lab in the Carolina Investigations® for AP® Chemistry series.

  • Science Practice 1: Modeling
  • Science Practice 2: Math
  • Science Practice 3: Scientific Questioning
  • Science Practice 4: Data Collection
  • Science Practice 5: Data Analysis
  • Science Practice 6: Using Scientific Explanations and Theories
  • Science Practice 7: Connecting Concepts

All Carolina Investigations® for AP® Chemistry kits offer:

  • Two teaching approaches: a guided activity and an inquiry activity
  • Big Idea assessment questions modeled on the AP® Chemistry Exam’s free-response questions
  • Detailed inquiry activity preparation and procedure steps
  • Inquiry activity experimental design template based on the scientific method
  • Inquiry activity grading rubric

Carolina Investigations® for AP® Chemistry kits are designed to help AP® teachers help their students achieve exceptional results by:

  • Facilitating the successful integration of inquiry-based learning into the laboratory experience
  • Using teacher-developed and field-tested activities that are designed for the AP® classroom
  • Cultivating students’ conceptual understanding of the topics covered, while allowing them to draw upon real-world connections
  • Mirroring the free-response section of the AP® Exam using assessment questions focused on the Big Ideas
  • Integrating mathematics and analytical thinking through the graphing and interpretation of student-collected data
  • Reinforcing knowledge by connecting concepts to students’ lives
  • Minimizing teacher prep and cleanup time
