Investigating How The Order Of Reaction Between Magnesium And An Acid Changes Using Different Acids And Varying Concentrations Sarah Taylor Planning: Reactions may take place at very different speeds. We need to understand what factors determine the rate of a reaction, and hence how to change the rate of a reaction. We then have the ability to control reactions more, and in industrial reaction the rate can be altered to suit the economics of certain manufacturing processes. Knowledge of how the rate of a reaction is determined is very important in providing evidence of that particular reaction mechanism. In this investigation, I am going to investigate how the order of reaction with respect to the acid varies when magnesium is reacted with acids of different types. I am also going to determine how the concentration affects the order and rate of the reaction. As a preliminary experiment, I took sulphuric, hydrochloric and ethanoic acid, and...
