You will calculate the initial rate of reaction from a curve rather than measure how much gas is released because you are looking at products in there molecular nature.

What is the measure of how fast a reaction occurs?

rate of reaction


What did you measure with the respirometer setup?

Volume of oxygen consumed, Volume of carbon dioxide produced. From this you can calculate the respiratory quotient/rate of respiration.


What is the difference between feedback control feed forward control and concurrent control?

1) Use ONLY feedforward control if:The physics/chemistry of the application are well knownYou can easily measure or calculate the variables in the equationsThere are no significant process disturbancesThe accuracy of the measurements used is an order of magnitude better than the application specifications2) Use ONLY feedback control if:Significant un-modeled process disturbances existYou cannot measure or calculate variables in the equations describing the physics/chemistry of the application.The accuracy of the measurements used is NOT an order of magnitude better than the application specifications.3) Use both when:The physics/chemistry of the application are well knownYou can easily measure or calculate the variables in the equationsThe accuracy of the measurements used is on the order of the application specificationsYou want to prevent saturation of the controller integratorsYou want to improve trajectory tracking, but 2nd and higher order dynamics in the plant limit your controller bandwidth


What is the difference between kinetic and potential enrgy?

Kinetic energy is the motion of an object (real). Potential energy is a measure of the kinetic energy an object WOULD have if it were to be released and allowed to fall.


What does the word statistic mean?

A statistic is a value calculated from a data sample. For example, the mean (average) is a statistic. You calculate the mean by adding up the values of the data you have and dividing by the number of values. Usually, you want to know the corresponding value for the whole population but this is impossible to obtain in practice. So you have to use a statistic calculated from a sample. For eaxmple, if you want to know the height of sixteen year old students in the UK, you cannot measure every single student. So you measure a sample (selected randomly), and calculate the average height of the sample. This is a statistic. See: http://www.stats.gla.ac.uk/steps/glossary/basic_definitions.html#stat

How is a reaction rate measured experimentally?

There are two ways people can measure the rate of reaction. People can measure how quickly the reactants are used up as they react to make products. Or people can measure the rate at which the products of the reaction are made.
