Self-Efficiency Reaction

            
             The article self-efficiency toward a unifying theory of behavioral changes is very important to the field of psychology. The research in this article talks about how psychological procedures have the ability to change a person's self-efficiency. The theory of personal efficiency is broken down into four basic ideas. One idea is how an individual's self-efficiency may change due the persons past performance and accomplishments during a certain situation. The author focuses on how this idea may be due to the way a person learns the right way to act due to failure or success in the same situation.
             Another variable of self- efficiency is the varcarious experience. This experience is based on modeling behavior, where an individual will be more willing to attempt a difficult activity if they have seen someone else succefully complete with no ramifications. Hence the saying "if they can do it I can do it better". Another idea in this article is verbal persuasion, which is self-explanatory. An individuals actions are steered by others people positive feedback on how they should act in a given situation. The forth idea in this article is emotional arousal. This idea I didn't understand that well, but I think it is means that being anxious or having negative arousal it may affect your self-efficiency.
             The article like all articles has its strengths and weaknesses. I think the strength of this article was how detailed oriented it was and how it provided many examples that could be easily be carried over into the readers life. The article provided charts, which allowed the reader to have a visuals understanding as well. The weakness in the article was that not all the concepts where proved to help self-efficiency. The four concepts discussed above are well organized and laid out. It makes the authors use of evidence very effective and allows the reader to apply it into personal situations.

2. Rates of Reaction

... which may affect the outcome of this experiment, if not kept constant, are as follows: Temperature Of Sodium Thiosulphate - I believe that the hotter the temperature, the faster the rate of reaction. This is because when a substance is heated up, each particle has more energy, resulting in more collisions between the free moving particles in a liquid, causing more particles to react, therefore ... increasing the overall rate of reaction. The second effect this has is that the particles collide with more force, increasing the chance of the particles reacting Concentration Of Hydrochloric...

... lysis means splitting'). Molecularity The number of collisions taking place depends on the following factors: 1. The concentration of the colliding species 2. The molecularity of the process The steps in a reaction are classified in terms of molecularity, which describes the number of molecules consumed. When a single molecule is consumed, the step is called unimolecular. When two molecules are consumed, it ... more collisions. The highest concentration will react quickest. Pressure - Changing the pressure on a gas is similar to altering the concentration of a solution. Increasing the pr...

... this experiment potato juice was used). We hypothesized that changing the temperature and pH from within the optimal range would disrupt the reaction. We also hypothesized that because enzyme and substrate concentrations in a reaction are proportional to each other, the reaction will occur at a speed proportionate to the amount of enzyme/substrate present. Methods and Materials: In this experiment four different environmental ... by taking readings of absorbance on a spectrophotometer set at 420nm (note: all readings were taken at this setting). To find the effect of enzyme concentratio...

6. rate of reaction

... energetic molecules succeed and reactions will be slow. If the activation energy needed is not very high then more collisions will be successful and the reaction will take less time. Activation energy is the minimum kinetic energy needed. Reactions need energy to occur. The molecules are moving because they ... one side of a boiling tube (opposite side to where I am looking) and looking at the cross at eye level.

... would hold the particle, which makes the other particles collide to it, therefore it would make the reaction faster. Also catalysts are specific i.e. different reaction need different catalysts. Catalysts increase the rate of a reaction by helping break chemical bonds in reactant molecules.
