Investigating advanced reaction rates. Aim In this investigation I will examine how certain variables affect the rate of reaction. In particular I will attempt to evaluate the orders of the reactions, and whether this order is confined to a certain concentration range, and also I will aim to approximate the activation energy through observing the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction. I will be using Magnesium (alkaline earth metal) during all of my reactions and a range of acids. For a successful outcome, careful planning must be undertaken, where preliminary work will be of key importance in determining quantities and ranges of reactants, and temperatures to use, as well as selecting the most appropriate apparatus and laboratory techniques to be used in the full investigation. Theory In this section I will explain the theoretical chemistry of the variables in my investigation, through my understanding of rates of reactions as well as the...
