Factors Affecting Reaction Rate
Aim: To determine the factors which affect the reaction rate in a chemical substance.
Theory: The rate of a chemical reaction can be defined as the increase in the concentration of one of the products per unit time or as the decrease in the concentration of one of the reactants per unit time. Rates of reaction usually decrease with time as the reactants are used up.
Hypothesis: It is assumed that the rate of reaction will vary in different concentrations, temperature and different in various surfaces.
Equipments:
