BY STEVEN BEANEY Experiment: Investigation into the factors that effect the rate of reaction. Investigation: I am going to investigate how different factors affect the rate of the following chemical reaction. Calcium Carbonate + Hydrochloric Acid = Calcium Chloride + Water + Carbon Dioxide CaCO3 + 2 HCl = CaCL2 + H20 + CO2 Reactants Products Factors affecting the rate of reaction: 1. The concentration of the acid 2. The weight of calcium carbonate 3. The surface area of the calcium carbonate 4. The temperature 5. The volume of acid used Aim: To investigate the rate of reaction I have decided to use the concentration as a variable. I am going to use marble chip (Calcium Carbonate) and Hydrochloric acid. I will alter the concentration of the hydrochloric acid each time, and I will measure the amount of Carbon Dioxide produced Prediction \ Hypothesis I think that the higher the concentration of hydrochloric acid the faster the carbon dioxide will be...
