Factors affecting the rate of reaction between a metal and an acid The rate of a reaction can be measured by the rate at which a reactant is used up‚ or the rate at which a product is formed. The temperature‚ concentration‚ pressure of reacting gases‚ surface area of reacting solids‚ and the use of catalysts‚ are all factors which affect the rate of a reaction. Individual properties of substances also affect reaction rates. The scope of these properties is broad and there are few generalizations

Sodium was first discovered by Sir Humphrey Davy in 1807. This element is the 11th element found on the periodic table; located in group 1 and period 3. Its chemical symbol is Na and it is classified as a metal. Metals‚ by definition‚ means that they are elements that are luster‚ lose electrons very easily‚ malleable‚ ductile‚ and are great conductors of heat and electricity. Sodium is found in group 1 of the periodic table because the electronegativity of sodium is very low. This allows it to form
