How Does Changing The Concentration Of Acid Affect The Rate Of Reaction Between Hydrochloric Acid And Marble Chips. Aim. To find out and investigate if changing the concentration of hydrochloric acid will increase or decrease the rate of the reaction when marble chips are dissolved in hydrochloric acid. Prediction. A reaction occurs when particles collide. This process is based on the 'collision theory'. So therefore, the more particles you have in a space, the more likely they are to collide. Therefore making the reaction accelerate. This theory can be proved if you compare the rates of reaction with marble in hydrochloric acid. 'If the acid is of a higher concentration, the reaction will be quicker'. Also because the particles will have more energy, they will be travelling faster, making them collide more frequently. Therefore I predict that the higher the concentration the faster the reaction will take place this is because in a higher concentration there will...
