How does temperature affect the rate of a chemical reaction? Introduction This year in chemistry we have been studying different types of reactions and what affects their rate. To help with this work, we have been given an experiment to investigate and analyse the factors influencing the rate. The Aim of this experiment is to investigate the effect on the rate of reaction caused by changes in temperature. I will be using the "Iodine Clock" experiment to investigate how temperature affects the rate of a chemical reaction Background Knowledge * Reactants - chemicals you start with * Products - chemicals you produce * Activation energy - the amount of energy which colliding particles must have in order to start a chemical reaction and change reactant particles into products. This energy is used in the breaking of chemical bonds. What is the rate of a reaction? The rate of a reaction is the speed of a chemical reaction,...
