Investigating the effect on the rate of reaction when changing the acid that is reacting with magnesium Aim The aim of this investigation is to determine the order of reaction of monobasic, dibasic and tribasic acids with magnesium. The second part of my research in this area concerns the effect of acid strength on the order of reaction. Proposed Procedure When reacting an acid with a metal the following reaction takes place:- Acid + Metal Salt + Hydrogen From this we can see that a gas is given off. I decided that to measure how the rate of the reaction varies I will have to make a record of the amount of hydrogen gas given off during time intervals. These results will show me the varying rate but I need to establish the order and therefore I have to make sure the experiment will provide data which will enable me to work out the order of...
