Question How does temperature affect the rate of reaction between sodium thiosulphate and hydrochloric acid? sodium thiosulphate + hydrochloric acid › sodium chloride +water + sulphur dioxide + sulphur Na2S2O3(aq) + 2HCl(aq) › 2NaCl(aq) + H2O(l) + SO2(aq) + S(s) Method To ensure that it is a fair test I will follow these points: * Put 10cm³ of hydrochloric acid into a measuring cylinder * Put 50cm³ of thiosulphate into a small beaker * The first experiment should be at room temperature but for the others use a Bunsen burner to heat up the thiosulphate to desired heat * Put it onto a piece of paper 18cm x 18cm with a cross on * Add the hydrochloric acid and start the timer * Stir it with the thermometer until the cross is unable to be seen through the beaker, stop the timer * Take the temperature * Put the results(time and temperature) into a chart Prediction I predict that the higher the temperature,...
