Chemistry Coursework This chemistry coursework requires an investigation to see the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction. Before starting the investigation, I did to do some research about magnesium and hydrochloric acid. Hydrochloric acid, HCl, is a solution of hydrogen chloride (a colourless acidic gas) in water. The concentrated acid is about 35% hydrogen chloride and is corrosive. The acid is a typical strong, monobasic acid forming only one series of salts, the chlorides. Like most acids, it releases hydrogen ions when it is added to water and certain metals, and has a pH of less than 7. Hydrochloric acid is a common laboratory acid. Magnesium is a light, shiny grey metallic element; symbol Mg, atomic number 12, found in group two in the periodic table. It is quite reactive giving vigorous reactions towards a0cids. It is one of the alkaline earth metals, and the lightest of the commonly...
