Rates of Reaction. Max Carter 11EB. Aim: To investigate the factors affecting the rate of a reaction. Introduction: Chemical reactions take place when reactant particles collide with other reactant particles with a sufficient amount of energy. The energy required for the reaction to take place is known as activation energy. This is written as EAct. In this investigation I am going to investigate the effects that changing one of four factors would have on the speed of the reaction. In this case the experiment I am going to carry out will involve Hydrochloric Acid and Sodium Thiosulphate. I will mix the two substances and time how long it takes for the liquids to produce a liquid which is too cloudy for me to see through. There are four main factors and one smaller one which may limit or increase the rate or speed of the reaction. These are: 1) changing the concentration of the dissolved...
