Investigating the Factors That Affect the Rate of a Chemical Reaction Introductory information In a chemical reaction more than two reactants are put together which makes a new product. For successful reactions to take place particles of different elements or compounds need to collide, and react together. A successful reaction happens when successful collisions take place. For successful collisions, particles must collide with enough energy to give a sufficient amount of force when colliding. From this you can see that in order for a reaction to take place, collisions between reacting particles need to happen. Activation energy represents the minimum energy needed to break bonds with reactants, with this they can react forming a new product's'. Two reactions colliding with enough energy new product The reaction that I will be investigating is the reaction between hydrochloric acid and magnesium ribbon. I will use different concentrations of hydrochloric acid to see the affects, outcomes...
