Effect of Temperature on Rate of Reaction We must produce a piece of coursework investigating the rates of reaction, and the effect different changes have on them. The rate of reaction is the rate of loss of a reactant during a chemical reaction. It is measured by dividing 1 by the time taken for the reaction to take place. Aim: To see the effects of a change in temperature on the rate of a reaction. The reaction that will be used is: Sulphur Dioxide Key Factors: There are five factors, which affect the rate of a reaction, according to the collision theory of reacting particles: 1. Temperature - the temperature is very important in any reaction. Generally the warmer the liquids the quicker the reaction until the optimum temperature. This varies in different liquids. If the temperature gets too high the reactants will denature and if the temperature is too low the...
