Mario. P 11B Investigating the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction between calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid. Introduction: One of the factors which affect the rate of reaction are temperature because the higher the temperature the faster the particles move which means there will be more collision thus faster rate of reaction. An increase in surface area of a solid (by grinding into powder) then more atoms/ molecules are exposed to other reagent, so there will be more collisions, so this so this will lead to more successful collisions. The catalyst is the thing which speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction, so there will be more successful collisions at any temperature because more of the molecules will have energy greater the activation energy. Concentration is the thing which tells us how much of a particle is present in a given volume, so if the concentration of a solution increases, then the...
