Investigating How the Concentration of Hydrochloric Acid Affects the Speed of the Reaction with Marble Chips
Introduction
============
There are many factors that will affect the rate of reaction between
hydrochloric acid and calcium carbonate. Some of them are as follows:
* Temperature - If the temperature is higher, then the molecules in
the solution have more energy, causing them to move around more
which would mean they would react faster.
* The surface area of the calcium carbonate - If the calcium
carbonate is in a sphere shape, then there is not as much surface
area than there would be if it was in a flat cuboid shape or
perhaps in several different chips. The more surface area, the
more acid molecules touching the chips and so the rate of reaction
is increased.
* Whether or not there is a catalyst.
* The concentration of acid in the solution. The more acid there is,
then the more acid molecules there are to react with the calcium
carbonate.
I am going to find out if the concentration of hydrochloric acid in a
water solution affects the speed of reaction with the calcium
carbonate. I will use 5 different concentrations of acid to get more
and accurate results.
Prediction
==========
I predict that the more hydrochloric acid there is in the solution,
the faster the reaction will be.
I think this because if the solution is more concentrated, then there
are more acid molecules to react with the calcium carbonate, and so
the reaction will take place faster than if there were not as many
acid molecules to react with the chips. This is because if there are
more acid particles, then there are more of them constantly colliding
with (attacking) the calcium carbonate and breaking it up.
Investigating Factors that Affect the Rate of Reaction Between marble and Dilute Hydrochloric Acid The local Council are concerned about the effect of acid rain on the marble statues in the local park. Investigate a factor that affects the rate of reaction between marble (calcium carbonate) and dilute hydrochloric acid. There are three main factors that affect the rate of reaction. These are: Particle size Concentration Temperature With investigating any of these, there are slight problems which make them not as reliable as they could be. With particle size, it is extremely difficult to get control of the sizes, e.g. large, small, medium.
Investigating the Effect of Concentration on the Rate of Diffusion Aim: To find out if concentration affects the rate of diffusion. Prediction: I predict that the higher the concentration of acid the faster the reaction will be. Hypothesis: Diffusion is the spreading out of a gas or liquid from an area of low concentration to another area where it has a lower concentration until the overall concentrations are balanced. The Hydrochloric acid (HCl) diffuses into the gelatine cube of which contains Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH), which is an alkali. When the Hydrochloric acid combines with the Sodium Hydroxide they form salt and water, which is neutral therefore turning the pink cube to clear.

Investigating Factors Which Affect The Reaction Between Chalk and An Acid. Introduction: Chalk is just one of the many forms that calcium carbonate can take. It is made of the mineral remains of sea creatures from millions of years. ago.
The reason I believe this is that chemical reactions occur when particles of the reacting substances collide. Increasing the number of the particles increases the number of collisions per second and this increases the reaction rate. In the reaction between hydrochloric acid and calcium carbonate you can increase the number of particles in two ways. The first of these is to increase the surface area of the calcium carbonate.
Rate of Reaction Between Marble Chips and Hydrochloric Acid. The aim of this experiment is to find out how different variables affect the rate at which the reaction between Marble chips (CaCO ) and Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is used. There are many variables that affect the rate of this reaction such as the following. 1.

Rate of Reaction Between Calcium Carbonate and Hydrochloric Acid Plan: In my experiment I will measure the rate of reaction between calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid. The rate of the reaction is the speed that the reaction takes place so by measuring the rate I will measure the amount of time the reaction takes. Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid that is found in digestive juices in the stomach, it is also used for cleaning metals before they are coated. Calcium carbonate has a few forms including chalk and limestone the main use of these two materials is in the making of concrete, which is used for many things such as buildings. When you put calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid together they react to form calcium chloride, carbon dioxide and water.
from 10cm to 50cm to make it easier to see the difference in a graph.
The Effect of Concentration of Hydrochloric Acid on the Rate of Reaction with Magnesium Aim: To investigate the effect of concentration of hydrochloric acid on the rate of reaction with magnesium Prediction: As the concentration of the hydrochloric acid increases, so will the rate of reaction Hypothesis: In a reaction, particles of two different reactants react together to form a product. The reaction only takes place on account of two things, if the particles collide, and if the collision has enough 'activation energy'. The two reactant particles, in this case magnesium particles and hydrochloric acid particles, must collide with each other on the correct 'collision course'. If this does not occur then no chemical reaction will take place. The reaction must also have enough energy, this can be affected by temperature, the more heat the particles have the faster they move and so the more energy therefore more chance of successful collisions.
Investigating the Effects of Temperature on the Rate of Reaction between Magnesium and Hydrochloric Acid Introduction Chemical kinetics is the study and examination of chemical reactions regarding re-arrangement of atoms, reaction rates, effect of various variables, and more. Chemical reaction rates, are the rates of change in amounts or concentrations of either products or reactants. Concentration of solutions, surface area, catalysts, temperature and the nature of reactants are all factors that can influence the rate of reaction. Increasing the concentration of a solution allows the rate of reaction to increase because highly concentrated solutions have more molecules and as a result the molecules collide faster. Surface area also affects reaction rate because when the surface area of a reactant is increased, more particles are exposed to the other reactant.
