Investigating the effect of changing the concentration on the rate of reaction between Sodium Thiosulphate and Hydrochloric Acid Introduction In this experiment, I am trying to find out if the concentration of sodium thiosulphate determines the rate of reaction in this experiment. To do this I will change the concentration of the thiosulphate to see if it makes any difference, keeping the amount of acid at 5cm³. There are other factors that can affect the rate of reaction like the temperature, if the temperature is increased then the particles move faster with more energy. If the temperature is decreased the particles will move more slowly, therefore there will be a slower rate of reaction. To keep the temperature constant I will make sure the heating in the room is at the same temperature for each experiment and I will do the experiments on the same day, at the same time. Our preliminary work...
