Temperature affecting Reaction Rates
- Guiding Question: How does the change in temperature affect the rate of reaction?
- Objectives: The objective of this experiment is to see how temperature affects reaction rates.
- Hypothesis: We think that temperature increases the rate of reaction because the increase in temperature increases the energy of the particles and therefore overcomes faster the activation energy.
- Variables:
- Independent: Temperature (°C)
- Dependents: Time (s) and rate of reaction (s -1)
- Control: Volume (ml) and concentration (M) of HCl and Na2S2O3.
