Tasneem Husain Experiment To Investigate How Fast Different Concentrations Of Acid React With Magnesium Aim I am investigating how changing the concentration of acid affects the rate of reaction between magnesium and hydrochloric acid. Mg + 2HCl MgCl2 + H2 Magnesium + Hydrochloric Acid (2 parts) Magnesium Chloride + Hydrogen Scientific Knowledge In our lessons we have been learning about how and why the rate of reaction changes. The 'rate of reaction' is the speed that a reaction takes. The factors that affect the rate of reaction are concentration, surface area and temperature. The concentration of a substance is the number of particles in a certain volume of substance. We know that the more concentrated the solvent, the faster the rate of reaction. This is because the more concentrated the solvent the more particles there will be. This means the particles are squashed in a certain amount of space. Therefore the particles...
