An Investigation to see if the temperature affects the rate of reaction. Using Marble Chips and Hydrochloric Acid. Planning The Equation being used is: -CaCo3 + HCL › CaCl2+H2O + CO2 CaCo3 =Marble Chips. HCL =Hydrochloric Acid. CO2 =How much gas is given off. My prediction is that if you change the temperature it will make the reaction happen faster because I will be using the Collision Theory as background information. When you heat up the particles you are giving them kinetic energy, so heating the chemicals results in the particles moving faster. When the particles are moving faster they collide more often, and harder with other particles, creating more reactions, more often. Making the final reaction a lot faster, than it would be if the temperature weren't changed. I believe that temperature is the main affect of the reaction but catalyse, surface area and the concentration of the acid are also used to affect the final...
