Introduction: In this experiment, we are going to experiment how the concentration of sodium Thiosulphate affects the arte etc of a reaction with hydrochloric acid. This is also connected with the study of Brownian motion. Brownian motion is the random movement of particles. All the particles are moving, which means they are charged with energy. We shall experiment with the way the particles move, by adding different concentrations of Sodium Thiosulphate (ST from this point forward). This is also connected with the study of movement (kinetics). Changing the concentration in the experiment is a very important factor. We are mixing the ST with Hydrochloric acid (HA from this point forward). When they mix and react, you get a cloudy solution. The stronger the concentration of ST, the greater the chance you have of one of these particles hitting a HA particle. This is shown in the Diagram below. In the above pictures,...
