An investigation to show how the rate of reaction between hydrochloric acid and sodium thiosulphate is affected by the concentration of the acid Simple Procedure Place a conical flask on a piece of paper with a cross on it. Add hydrochloric acid and sodium thiosulphate‚ and record the amount of time taken for the cross to disappear through the solution from the top of the flask. Record this time and repeat this for different concentrations of hydrochloric acid. Fair Test The variables in

experiment to investigate how the concentration of an acid affects the rate of the reaction. I have set up the experiment’s equipment as shown on figure 1. As you can see by figure 1‚ I have used the reaction between sodium thisoulphate solution and hydrochloric acid (HCL) to come up with results that will help me draw conclusions regarding the effects of the concentration of the acid. I decided to use this particular reaction due to the fact that the product of the reaction between sodium thisoulphate and

Investigation The rates of chemical reactions in industry are carefully controlled because ‘Time is money!’ So it is important that chemists can make reactions happen and make useful products as quickly as possible. However‚ sometimes chemists deliberately slow down reactions to avoid health and safety risks. Some reactions can go out of control and lead to large amounts of toxic or flammable gases being made too quickly. One chemical that is made industrially is sodium thiosulfate. Sodium thiosulfate solution

Introduction In this chemical reaction‚ the magnesium will dissolve in the hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen gas. This is because magnesium is higher than hydrogen in the reactivity series. Therefore‚ when the two reactants are combined‚ a displacement reaction occus and the magnesium displaces the hydrogen‚ forming magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas. Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) -> MgCl 2 (aq) + H 2 (g) Magnesium + Hydrochloric acid -> Magnesium Chloride + Hydrogen

Aim During this experiment I will be investigating if heating limestone and changing the concentration of the acid will affect the rate of reaction. Preliminary work Before doing our main experiment‚ we will have to conduct another experiment‚ to see what concentration of acid we will have to use. We done this using 0.1M‚ 0.5M and 1M of Hydrochloric acid‚ and 0.1g of powdered limestone‚ we used powdered limestone‚ as it would be a fairer test‚ I think this as all the particles of limestone will

Carbonates react with strong acids to give off carbon dioxide and water. Marble is calcium carbonate and thus behaves in the same way: CaCO3 (s) + 2HCL (aq)  CaCL2 (aq) + H2O (l) +CO2 (g) In this experiment‚ I am going to see if temperature affects the reaction rate between marble chips and hydrochloric acid by timing the release of carbon dioxide in the reaction. I predict the higher the temperature‚ the faster the reaction rate. This is due to the kinetic theory. The more heat

Neutralization experiment AIM:- To investigate how heat is given out in neutralizing sodium hydroxide (NaOH) using different concentrations of Hydrochloric Acid. Background Information:- Substances that neutralize acids are called alkalis. An acid is a substance that forms hydrogen ions (H+ ) when placed in water. It can also be described as a proton donor as it provides H+ ions. An example of an acid is hydrochloric acid (HCl)‚ Sulphuric acid (H2SO4) etc. An alkali is a soluble base

experiment is to find out the rate of reaction between Hydrochloric acid (HCL) and Magnesium (Mg) in different temperatures. The products that will be formed are Magnesium Chloride (MgCl2) and Hydrogen (H2). Prediction: I predict that as the temperature increases the rate of reaction also increases. To further explore the fact I further predict that the rate of reaction will double for every 10° C rise in temperature. I further predict as the temperature rises by 10° C the rate of collisions will also
