The effects of temperature on the rate of reaction of sodium thiosulphate with hydrochloric acid Planning Background Chemical reactions occur when two or more reactants come into contact with each other. These reactants can produce one or more products and reactions can vary greatly depending on the reactants and the environments which they are in. For example some experiments are exothermic as they produce heat while others are endothermic as they cool their surroundings because they need the heat to react. Some reactions can take place in an unmodified environment e.g. room temperature, normal atmospheric pressure and normal light conditions while others do need these environmental factors changed in order for the experiment to actually happen. These surrounding conditions can also be changed in order to change the rate of reaction. There are other factors that can affect an experiment's rate of reaction and they are concentration, surface area and the presence of...
