Cheamistry: Rate of reaction.

The rate of a reaction is how quickly the reactants form products. Rate of Reatcion = Volume of products formed cm Time taken (secs) In this particular experiment the reactants are magnesium (Mg) and hydrochloric acid will be used. I will be using different molars and the molar, which gives me the most accurate result I will be using. Aim: The aim of the investigation is to find out the factors affecting the rate of reaction …

…I will fold the 5 cm into 2.5cm then into 1.25cm Prediction: I predict that the 10cm magnesium ribbon will produce the most gas because it has a larger surface area. I believe this because the 10cm and new bonds will be made. When the surface area is made smaller, the surface area will start to decrease because be mor bounce off each other. This would therefore mean the gas would take longer to be produced
