We can use a gas syringe to measure the reaction of metals with dilute acid. When zinc reacts with hydrochloric acid it produces zinc chloride and hydrogen gas. We can measure the rate of the ...

The rate can be measured by placing the reaction container on top of a black ‘X’ before adding the chemicals together (example shown in diagram below). If you time how long it takes until you ...

Recent research in this area has emphasized the importance of accurately measuring reaction rates, particularly for reactions that occur at low energies, which are crucial for understanding ...
