Abstract:

Kinetics is an important part of physical chemistry laboratory teaching. In this article, we present a spectrophotometric method for study of the reversible kinetic reaction process of phenolphthalein-NaOH system. The ambient temperature has little influence on the experimental reaction, and the spectrophotometer is the only required instrument for carrying out this experiment. All reagents used are in small amount and low toxic, which is in accordance with the green chemistry concept.

Key words: Spectrophotometric method, Reversible reaction, Dynamics, Sodium hydroxide, Phenolphthalein
