Change in amount of substance Rate of reaction = Time taken for the change to occur What is the rate of reaction and how is it measured? The phrase rate of reaction means how fast is the reaction. It can be measured as the rate of formation of product or the rate of disappearance of reactant. Aim This experiment involves investigating factors that influence the rate of reaction. I will see if a reaction becomes faster or slower by altering certain conditions. The condition that I will be altering is the concentration of one of the reactants. The reaction I will be investigating is between calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid. Equation The equation of this reaction is Calcium carbonate + hydrochloric acid calcium chloride + carbon dioxide + water CaCO3 + 2HCL CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O Factors that affect the rate of reaction For this experiment I will explore what affects the rate...
