RAAID IQBAL Introduction I am going to investigate how PARTICLE SIZE affects the rates of reaction. There are many other key factors that affect the rates of reaction like: Key factors:> Temperature> Particle size (surface area)> Concentration> Measurements> Pressure> Catalysts But I am only going to investigate how Particle Size affects the rates of reaction. I am going to investigate this by using magnesium and hydrochloric acid in my experiment. I will measure the gas produced (hydrogen) to work out how particle size affects the rates of reaction. Magnesium is a light, shiny grey metallic element, symbol Mg, atomic number 12, found in group two in the periodic table. It is quite reactive giving vigorous reactions towards acids. It is one of the alkaline earth metals, and the lightest of the commonly used metals. It is used in alloys, flash photography, flares, fireworks and flash bulbs because it burns vigorously in air with a bright...
