Reaction Rates Concentration Plan: I am going to investigate, how concentration affects reaction rates. By timing how long it takes, for the volume of Carbon Dioxide produced to reach to 100 cm3. Factors, which will affect the performance of the reaction rate concentration experiment, are: * The volume of hydrochloric acid and water. * The time. * The acid concentration. * Size of marble chips surface area. * Catalyst. * Temperature. Reaction rates occur at different speeds, some happen very fast such as explosions and some very slow like rusting. Three conditions must be met in order for a reaction to occur. * The substances must touch each other. (Pour the two substances into a conical flask) * They must be positioned so that the reacting groups are together for the Transition State. * The collision must have enough energy to form the Transition state (Transition - Process of changing from one state to another). If any of these circumstances is...
