Does Temperature Affect The Rate Of Reaction? Aim To find out if the temperature of hydrochloric acid affects the rate of reaction with magnesium. Prediction I predict that as the temperature of the hydrochloric acid increases so will the rate of reaction therefore the time taken for the reaction between the hydrochloric acid and the magnesium to be completed will decrease. Theory As there is more heat energy added to the H+ ions will collide with each other more frequently thus causing an increased rate of reaction between the acid and magnesium. Hydrochloric acid + Magnesium Hydrogen + Magnesium Chloride 2HCL + Mg H2 +MgCL2 Apparatus * Magnesium * Hydrochloric acid * Thermometer * Bunsen burner * Test tubes * Test tube holder * Measuring cylinder * Beaker * Safety goggles Safety Follow all the rules on safety while performing an experiment in the laboratory for example: * Wear safety goggles at all times * Put all stools away * Never sit down during an experiment Method 1. Measure out 3cm3 of hydrochloric acid....
