This experiment covered concepts for chemical kinetics involving concentrations using a spectrometer to measure absorbance over time while ions dissociate. Chemical kinetics is the study of the rates of reactions based on concentrations and temperatures. Basically, the higher the concentration is, the faster the reaction occurs. This experiment specifically covers how the rate of the reaction is affected by the concentration of reactants, also known as the order of the reaction.
