RATES OF REACTION Prediction If I use a higher concentration (molar number) of hydrochloric acid in the reaction than there will be a higher volume of Carbon dioxide produced. In other words if I doubled the concentration of HCL it will result into an equal proportion of CO[2 ]produced. Hypothesis I can back up my prediction by using the collision theory that I have come to know through my research. · Reacting Molecules must collide with one another · The reacting molecules must collide with sufficient energy · The reacting molecules must collide in an orientation that can lead to rearrangement of the atoms It says the rate of reaction simply depends on how often and how hard the reacting particles collide with each other. By increasing the concentration of HCL I am increasing the chances of each of the particle of Calcium carbonate to collide with Hydrochloric acid molecules. When the collision theory says it...
