The Effect of Different Concentrations on the Rate of Reaction between Magnesium Ribbon and Hydrochloric Acid
The Effect of Different Concentrations on the Rate of Reaction between Magnesium Ribbon and Hydrochloric Acid:
Research Question:
Does doubling the concentration of hydrochloric acid; double the rate of reactions when magnesium ribbon reacts with hydrochloric acid?
Hypothesis:
I believe that if we double the amount of hydrochloric acid concentration, the rate of reaction will also double. This maybe the case, because there is double the amount of particles reacting, hence, double the amount of collisions per second, causing double the amount of successful collision per second due to double the amount of kinetic energy. Hence, the reaction would finish in half the time.
