To Investigate The Effect Of Concentration On The Rate Of Reaction Of Magnesium And Hydrochloric Acid In my experiment I aim to look at the effect that different concentrations of hydrochloric acid have on the rate of reaction. I will carry out a pilot and modify it for my final experiment; I will then evaluate my work. The word and symbol equations for this experiment are: Magnesium + Hydrochloric Acid Magnesium Chloride + Hydrogen Mg + 2HCL MgCl + H2 The Collision Theory A chemical reaction will only occur when particles collide, with the right amount of energy, enough energy to break bonds, this minimum amount of energy is called the activation energy. In some reactions the activation energy is low and collisions may occur at room temperature or below. Some reactions have a high activation energy therefore they have to be heated for collisions to happen. When collisions happen in different concentrations of...
