Method: I have been asked to produce a piece of coursework that measures the rate at which a strip of magnesium is dissolved by hydrochloric acid. I have been asked to vary one aspect of the fair test and I chose to vary the volume of hydrochloric acid as I realised that it will give me a clear indication on how the rate of the reaction is affected by the volume of hydrochloric acid. First of all ...
