An Investigation into the factors that affect the rate of the reaction between magnesium ribbon and dilute hydrochloric acid Plan I predict that the higher the concentration of the hydrochloric acid, the higher the rate of the reaction. If the concentration of the hydrochloric acid doubles, the number of particles in the hydrochloric acid would double also. Therefore, the number of collisions between the particles will double so the rate would double also. This means that the rate of the reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the hydrochloric acid. I worked this out by using the collision theory, where if you change the concentration, the rate changes in the same proportion. So the higher the concentration of the HCL the faster the reaction would take place, so the faster the magnesium ribbon would disappear. We can test if this prediction is correct for this reaction by measuring the rate...
