Carrie Smith Coursework: Reacting Marble Chips with Dilute Acid Plan Introduction: For any reaction to occur particles must collide with each other and each collision must be with enough energy for the reaction to be passed on through each particle. When this happens, the original bonds between the particles are broken and so new bonds are formed, making new products. Collisions that are successful and of a sufficient energy, can have an increase or a decrease in the rate of their reaction by the following factors: Temperature: As the temperature increases, so does the rate of reaction because the heat supplies the particles with more energy, and so they move and vibrate faster. When this happens, there are more collisions; each collision with an energy above that of the activation energy, and so it is with more force and success that the collisions take place. Surface Area: The larger the surface area, the quicker the rate of reaction because...
