Determining The Activation Energy Of Glucose Syrup Using The Arrhenius Equation, Utkarsh Sharma
Determining The Activation Energy Of Glucose Syrup Using The Arrhenius Equation, Utkarsh Sharma
The International Student Science Fair 2018
This experiment finds the activation energy of corn syrup using the Arrhenius equation. This was done through a simple experiment of dropping a ball into corn syrup and measuring its terminal velocity. From this, the viscosity could be derived, through the use of rearrangement of Newton’s First Law. The temperature of the corn syrup was also varied through the use of a microwave by raising it to 50 degrees Celsius. It is known that the more viscous a liquid is, the greater the activation energy for the liquid, which is essentially the energy barrier that a molecule has to overcome …
