Aim * This experiment aims to determine the effect temperature has on the rate of reaction. It will be a comparative study between a weak acid, ethanoic and a strong acid, hydrochloric, when added to magnesium ribbon. * This experiment aims to determine if the concentration has an effect on the rate of reaction. It will be a comparative study between a weak acid, ethanoic and a strong acid, hydrochloric, when added to magnesium ribbon. Introduction Kinetics refers to the study of rates of chemical reaction. This is very important as in organic chemistry you can often get several different products from the same mixture of reagents, but by controlling the reaction conditions the rate of formation of each product may be changed. Knowledge of the kinetics of a reaction helps to produce larger quantities of desired products while reducing the presence of unwanted by products. The rate of reaction is the change...
