Acid Rain Analysis

Simple Explanation:

The line graph shows that the higher the volume of acid, the lower the volume

of oxygen.

Trends and Patterns:

From the graph, I can see that the more acid concentration, the less oxygen

produced.  When the acid volume was 10ml, 8.4ml of oxygen was produced,

whereas when the acid volume was 90ml, only 1.5ml of oxygen was

produced.

Numerical Analysis:

The graph shows that the volume of oxygen was low whenever the volume of

acid was high.  On the graph there is a gradual decrease in oxygen, shown

from 10ml to 40ml.  The oxygen decreases overall by 0.7ml.  The graph also

shows that by 50ml the oxygen decrease falls at a faster rate.  By 70ml it had

dropped by 3.2ml.  From 80ml-100ml it began to fall at a steady rate again.

Processed Evidence:

Using the line of best fit on the graph, I can conclude that at 45ml oxygen

volume would be about 7.3ml, and at 75ml the oxygen volume would be

2.3ml.  This further backs my theory that the rate of oxygen fell at a steady

pace between 10ml and 40ml, but drastically dropped between 50ml and

70ml.

Conclusion:

From the graph I have come to the conclusion that the acid concentration did

affect the rate of oxygen produced. ...
