To Investigate The Factors That Affect The Rate of Reaction Between Magnesium Metal and Hydrochloric Acid. Magnesium reacts with dilute Hydrochloric Acid to produce Magnesium Chloride and Hydrogen. Mg2 (s) + 2HCl (aq) › 2MgCl (aq) + H2 (g) Aim To find which factors affect the rate of reaction between Magnesium Metal and Hydrochloric Acid. Safety Goggles Fire retardant protective clothing Hair tied back Heat proof matt Apparatus Boiling Tube with bung and delivery tube, Gas syringe - 100cm3, Stand, Measuring cylinder, Emery Paper, Magnesium Ribbon - 4cm, Dilute Hydrochloric Acid 1.2 10cm3 Thermometer, Bunsen burner and mat. Method We can record the rate of reaction by measuring at a regular interval, the volume of hydrogen collected. To ensure a controlled experiment, all variables must remain the same throughout the procedure. I will change the temperature throughout this experiment. My variables are length of magnesium ribbon and the volume of hydrochloric acid theses must remain the same. 1. Clean five, 4cm pieces of magnesium ribbon by pulling through emery paper. 2. Using a measuring cylinder...
