An investigation to find out the factors affecting the rate of reaction of Hydrochloric acid with Sodium Thiosulphate. Aim: I am going to discover how the concentration influences the rate of reaction of Hydrochloric acid and Sodium Thiosulphate. There are four factors that influences the rates of reaction, they are:> Concentration(for gases it is pressure)> Temperature> Surface Area(Size of particles) The rate of reaction is owed to the collision theory. For a reaction to take place, particles must collide with great strength. If they do not collide with great strength, the reaction will not take place. Consequently, the rate of reaction is dependant on the collision of the particles. Method: 1. Set up the apparatus. 2. On a piece of paper, draw a dark cross. 3. Put 25ml of Sodium Thiosulphate. This is known as 1 Mole. 4. Place the beaker on top of the piece of paper, with the cross marked on it. 5. Check the...
