Carla Jones 11y set 1 Chemistry Assessment Centre no. 29200 Candidate no.8159 Brief Magnesium and hydrochloric acid react together readily. Plan and carry out an investigation testing a factor that you think will effect the reaction. You may only use equipment available to you in the science laboratory. Your plan must be approved before you start the practical work, as must the preliminary work. ______________________________ Background information. In the reaction between hydrochloric acid and magnesium ribbon, the hydrochloric acid will react with the magnesium and produce hydrogen gas. All chemical reactions involve reactants which when mixed may cause a chemical reaction which will make products. In my experiment the reactants are hydrochloric acid and magnesium ribbon. The chemical reaction takes place when the magnesium ribbon is dropped into the hydrochloric acid. The products that are formed during this reaction are hydrogen gas and magnesium chloride. The formula equation for this experiment is: Mg + 2HCl...
