To do this I will be measuring out a volume of hydrochloric acid and a length of magnesium ribbon and reacting them together. If there is still some magnesium left over when it has stopped effervescing then I will have to increase the volume of hydrochloric acid. If the reaction takes too long to finish then I will have to shorten the length of magnesium that I use, however if the reaction is too short then I will have to do the opposite and increase the length of magnesium that I use. The optimum rate that I am trying to find is a reaction that isn‚t too short but isn‚t too long, so I can get enough results to plot a good graph. I need to...
