    investigate the factors that affect the rate at which Sodium Thiosulfate (Na2S2O3) reacts with Hydrochloric Acid (HCl). When sodium thiosulfate is mixed with hydrochloric acid, a reaction takes place, leading to a precipitate of sulphur being formed. This turns the solution cloudy. I shall use this clouding to investigate a factor that affects the rate of reaction, the factor being temperature. To do this, I shall react Sodium Thiosulfate with Hydrochloric Acid at a range of temperatures

    concentration of sodium thiosulfate and the time take for the cross to be no longer visible on the white tile through the solution. From graph 1 it could be seen that the concentration of sodium thiosulfate and the time taken for the reaction to be completed are inversely proportional, as when the concentration of sodium thiosulfate increases, the time taken decreases and the graph levels out as it approached the x-axis. Graph 2 supports this by showing that the concentration of sodium thiosulfate and the
