The purpose of this lab is:

1. To explain the effect of
temperature on reaction
rate
2.
To
determining
the
activation
energy
by
Arrhenius equation

OBJECTIVE

BASIC THEORY
The activation energy is the minimum energy
required by a chemical reaction that can take place. In an
endothermic reaction, the energy required to break bonds
and so forth supplied from outside the system. In an
exothermic reaction, which frees up the energy, it also
requires a supply of energy from the outside to activate
the reaction.

BASIC THEORY
Temperature affects the rate of reaction. the
higher the temperature, the more kinetic energy of
the molecules increase. Therefore, the more
frequency of collisions, The more rate of reaction
increase. So, if the temperature is different, the
activation energy will be different.
.

BASIC THEORY
Determination of activation energy can be determined by
the Arrhenius equation:

K = A eEa/RT
if the equation in the form of logarithms :

Ln K = ln A Ea ( 1 )
R

BASIC THEORY
For the reaction of iodine with persulfate ion will
produce sulfate ions and iodine with starch or starch
become blue or brown, then the reaction is:
2 I- + S2O82I2 + ammilum

2SO42- +I2
blue color solution

the sodium thiosulphate reaction with acid chloride

solution will produce sulphur
S2O32- + 2HCl

DISCUSSION
This experiment aims to study the effect of temperature on
the reaction rate and calculate the activation energy using
the Arrhenius equation. The activation energy is the energy
threshold that must be achieved so that a reaction may
occur.
Experiment Arrhenius equation and the activation energy is
carried out by reacting two test tubes. The first tube
consisting of S208 2- dan aquadest, while the second tube
consisting of 10 mL of 0.1 M KI, 1 mL of 0.001 M Na2S2O3
and 1 mL of starch solution. Experiment on the starch must
be heated before mixed with Na2S2O3. This is due to
activate the enzyme beta mylase. If this is not done then the
resulting color will Brown when the reaction equilibrium is
achieved because enzimnya does not work with the
maximum. Starch solution in a second tube used is
preheated with the aim of maximizing the function of starch.

DISCUSSION
From the experiments was obtained at 40 C, the time it takes 5
second, at a temperature of 35 C = 6 second, at 30 C = 9
second, at 25 C = 14 second. From the four experiments on the
variation of time, it is known that the temperature is inversely
proportional to the time.
The higher the temperature, the velocity of the particles of reagents
and kinetic energy of the particles increases. This causes collisions
will be more frequent and faster the reaction will take place.
Temperature changes generally affect the price of the rate constant
K. If the temperature is increased, the value of K will increase. From
the graph of ln k and 1 / T is obtained Ea =55.026 kJ / mol and A=
2.975 10-9

DSICUSSION
From the results of the above data it can be concluded
that the activation energy of the reaction rate is
inversely proportional. This proves that the higher
temperature, the activation energy will be smaller and
the less time is required so will increase the rate of
reaction. This is consistent with the theory that the
activation energy is inversely proportional to the rate of
reaction.

DISCUSSION
Solution of starch in this experiment is used as an
indicator of I2. Persulfate solution serves as an oxidant
that is changing the I- into I2. Then I2 binds with
Na2S2O3 which serves as a reducing agent. After
thiosulfate ion completely reacted, I2 and I- will form I3that binds to starch produces a blue color in the solution.
The color change will be more rapid if the reaction takes
place at higher temperatures. At higher temperatures,
the reagent ions will have greater kinetic energy.

DISCUSSION
The reaction occurs:
S2O8- + 2I-

2SO42- + I2

I2 + 2S2O32I2 + I
I3- + starch

2I- + S4062-

CONCLUSION
Based on experimental data it can be concluded that :
1. The higher the temperature , the faster the rate of
reaction
2. The activation energy obtained from this experiment is
55.026 kJ / mol and an A= 2.975 10-9
3. The activation energy is inversely proportional to the
rate of reaction.
