RATES OF REACTION AIM: To Find Out How The Rate Of Reaction Can Change Between Magnesium And Sulphuric Acid Background Information For this piece of coursework, I will have to determine how the rate of reaction can be altered between magnesium and sulphuric acid. In order for a reaction to take place, successful collisions must occur, but not all collisions are successful in producing a reaction. Only a small fraction of collisions will result in a reaction, which are known as effective collisions. For example, many collisions occur between the molecules in a mixture of hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. If every collision produced a reaction, the experiment will be completed in a fraction of a second. Heating the mixture can do this. But at room temperature there is little reaction between the colliding hydrogen and oxygen molecules. All colliding particles need a minimum amount of energy before a reaction; this energy is called the...
