How temperature affects the rate of chemical change Introduction This investigation is about how temperature can affect the rate of chemical change of calcium carbonate in the form of solid marble chips reacting with dilute hydrochloric acid. During the investigation I will try to find out how by changing the temperature of the solvent this will affect the rate of chemical change of calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid. For every experiment I do, I will measure the amount of carbon dioxide given off from the reaction because I know there will be carbon dioxide given off because of the equation: Metal Carbonate + acid Salt + Water + Carbon dioxide With that information I can work out the rate of chemical change by using the formula: RATE = volume of CO2(g) released Time There are a number of factors which can affect the rate of chemical change. These factors are: * The temperature * The concentration of...
