Chemistry Planning Procedure In my investigation, I will be trying to find out what affects the rate in which magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid. I will be putting a small piece of the metal magnesium into a test tube of hydrochloric acid. However, each time I do so, the concentration of the acid will be different. To be safe in this experiment I will be using safety goggles at all times, my hair will be tied back and test tubes will all be put in a test tube rack so that there are no accidents. The equation for my experiment is: Magnesium + hydrochloric acid Magnesium chloride + hydrogen Variables In this experiment, factors of rate of reaction will be the only things changed i.e. concentration, temperature, surface area & catalysts, but I personally will be sticking to concentration. Surface area: Surface area is the measurement of how much surface is exposed. Therefore, for the same...
