An excellent project, very perceptive -
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
What affects the rate of reaction?
1) The surface area of the magnesium.
2) The temperature of the reaction.
3) Concentration of the hydrochloric acid.
4) Presence of a catalyst.
In the experiment we use hydrochloric acid which reacts with the
magnesium to form magnesium chloride. The hydrogen ions give
hydrochloric acid its acidic properties, so that all solutions of
hydrogen chloride and water have a sour taste; corrode active metals,

Cl being given off. The
other main thing that could have helped us to get more accurate results
is we cold have swirled the reaction throughout it to stop the diluting
of the acid and the bubbles of H2 being given off.
If I had time I could have done the reactions a few more times to
get a better set of results. This would have helped my graphs to show
better readings.
