Rates of Reaction AIM In all chemical reactions products are formed and reactants are used up. The following are factors, which affect the rate of reaction: * Surface area of solid reactants. * Changes in concentration of solution in which reactant is placed. * Changes in Pressure (if reactant is gas). * Changes in Temperature. * Catalysts. I will be investigating the affect concentration has on the rate of reaction between Magnesium and Hydrochloric Acid. The reactants in this investigation are the magnesium ribbon and the hydrochloric acid. The products are Magnesium Chloride and Hydrogen (gas). The following equation demonstrates this: Mg(S) + 2HCl(AQ) MgCl2(AQ) + H2(G) Magnesium + Hydrochloric Acid Magnesium Chloride + Hydrogen I must remember that most of the factors listed above will in some way affect the rate of reaction i.e. the Surface area of the Magnesium ribbon, the temperature of the Hydrochloric Acid. PREDICTION From previous experiments I have discovered that the rate of reaction is directly...
