PLANNING Introduction In this investigation I am going to investigate how the level concentration affects the rate of reaction. Concentration - The number of particles in a certain volume. Reaction - A chemical process, which involves particles with energy colliding to form new substances. Rate - The speed of the reaction occurring. There are many factors, which can affect the rate of reaction, the main factors are: * pH - The acidity or alkalinity of a substance. * Surface area - The total amount of area on the outside of a substance. The more surface area exposed, means that there is a greater surface to collide against. * Temperature - The thermal heat that is surrounding the substance, which could affect the reactivity of the substance. The more heat that is being applied then the particles are going to move faster causing more collisions and a faster rate of reaction. * Concentration - The amount of particles of a substance...
