Need help with chemistry lab - kinetics

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on obtaining the accepted value for the activation energy of the reaction between potassium permanganate and oxalic acid. The user successfully completed the first part of their chemistry lab, which involved determining the rate law experimentally, but faced time constraints with the second part that examines the effect of temperature on the rate constant. There is also a mention of the post being a quasi-duplicate, prompting a request for moderator review regarding its status.

need urgent help with chemistry lab - kinetics

Where can I obtain the accepted value for the activation energy of the reaction involving potassium permanganate and oxalic acid?

I did the first part of the lab, which involved finding the rate law experimentally, correctly. But I ran out of time on the second part (effect of temperature on rate constant).

Please help!

Thanks!

Thread 'Solubility of MgSO47H2O in water'

It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...

Thread 'Why does having 8 valence electrons make an element inert?'

I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
