Introduction to Rates Rate is a measure of how fast or slow something is. It is a measure of the change that happens in a single unit of time. Rates can be measured in 2 different ways: (a) The rate of disappearance of a reactant. (b) The rate of appearance of a product. Some reactions are very fast and others are very slow. Plan By doing this investigation I want to find out what effect different temperatures have on the rate of reaction between magnesium and hydrochloric acid. The word and symbol equations for this reaction is as below: Magnesium + Hydrochloric acid = Magnesium chloride + Hydrogen Mg + 2HCL = MgCl2 + H2 There are a number of factors, which may influence the investigation in various ways, these include: * Type of Magnesium used * Temperature of reaction * Concentration of Hydrochloric acid * Concentration of Magnesium * Amount of Magnesium * Amount of Hydrochloric acid (volume) * Addition of a catalyst *...
