AP® Lab 11: Rate Law Of Crystal Violet

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.
