CHEMISTRY G.C.S.E COURSEWORK Experiment to find the effect of temperature on rates of reaction I would like to find out the effect temperature has on the speed of a reaction. In order to do this, I plan to react 20mm X 5mm strips of magnesium with 20cm³ of 1.5Molar hydrochloric acid. In the experiment, I will time how long it takes for the strip of magnesium to fully dissolve at different temperatures. List of Equipment 1. 20cm³ measuring cylinder 2. 1.5M diluted hydrochloric acid 3. 10 X 2cm strips of magnesium 4. 1 test tube 5. Test tube holder 6. Bunsen burner 7. Tripod 8. Gauze 9. Heat mat 10. Water bath 11. Crushed ice 12. goggles 13. Thermometer Method 1. First I will assemble the apparatus as shown in the diagram. While doing this I have to secure any loose items such as my tie for safety reasons. Also I have to wear goggles throughout the experiment because of the dangerous nature of Hydrochloric acid. 2. Next,...
