Peter O'Connor 11DV December 2002 Chemistry Coursework Experiment Aim To investigate if the temperature of hydrochloric acid will affect the rate of reaction between hydrochloric acid and magnesium. Magnesium Ribbon + Hydrochloric Acid › Magnesium Chloride + Hydrogen Mg + 2HCl › MgCl² + H² Hypothesis I think that as the temperature of the hydrochloric acid increases so will the rates of reaction. I think this because of the Collision theory. These theory states that particles, when heated have more energy, and with this higher amount of energy the particles will be moving at a higher rate with more force, when these particles collide a reaction occurs, therefore increasing the heat increases the rate of reaction. Apparatus Pyrex Beaker Gauze Tripod Bunsen Burner Stopwatch Thermometer Measuring Cylinder Experimented Materials i.e. HCl and Mg Method The equipment was examined to ensure that it was sterile and in working order. Then 50ml of hydrochloric acid was measured out in a measuring cylinder. This was then poured into a clean Pyrex...
