How Does Temperature affect the rate of reaction ? Introduction / Aim : In the reaction between hydrochloric acid and magnesium ribbon, the hydrochloric acid will dissolve the magnesium and produce hydrogen gas. All chemical reactions involve reactants which when mixed may cause a chemical reaction which will make products .In my case the reactans are hydrochloric acid and magnesium ribbon. The chemical reaction takes place when the magnesium ribbon is placed into the hydrochloric acid. The products that are formed during this reaction are hydrogen gas and magnesium chloride. The formula equation for this experiment is: Mg + 2HCl> MgCL + H2. Magnesium + Hydrochloric acid , Magnesium Chloride + Hydrogen Factors that affect rate of reaction: · Temperature · Mass of the magnesium ribbon used · Concentration of the Hydrochloric acid Ways to measure the rate of the reaction: Average rate of reaction / Initial rate of reaction / Actual rate of reaction. I will be...
