Investigate the effect of changing the concentration of a catalyst on the rate of a reaction. Introduction We must produce a piece of coursework investigating the affect of changing the concentration of a catalyst on the rate of a reaction. The rate of reaction is a change in the concentration of a reactant or product per unit time. There are five factors, which can affect the rate of reaction, according to the collision theory of reacting particles: * Temperature * Concentration * Pressure * Surface area * Catalyst I have chosen to investigate the effect that different concentrations of catalyst (Copper sulphate) have on this reaction. I am going to record the Hydrogen given off in the solution. Concentration: The concentration of a substance, normally a solution, is the amount in a given volume. Concentration= amount volume In a higher concentration solution there are more particles to react therefore there are more collisions. As a reaction depends on collisions happening, more...
