Question

I need some help in forming a quick procedure involving Rate and Collision Theory. Any help appreciated.

Answer 1

Materials:
Alka-Seltzer tablets
Empty and clean water or soda bottles (12 oz to 24 oz)
Balloons (to capture the carbon dioxide gas produced)
Water
Clock
Additional materials may be required, depending on your lab design.

Procedure:
Design an experiment that will compare two different factors that may affect the rate of the Alka-Seltzer reaction. Possible factors to be investigated include temperature, surface area, agitation, and amount of reactants.

Answer 3

I did this, it was pretty easy. Give me a second to find my research.

Answer 4

Alright, thank you.

Answer 5

What section was this one?

Answer 6

Like, module wise? Or?

Answer 7

Yeah

Answer 8

Module 6 : Thermochemistry and Rate
Exact lesson number : 6.05 Rate and Collision Theory

Answer 9

Okay I found it. So basically you just have to change something about the experiment. Like, in one bottle you could add salt or sugar and in the other bottle just use regular water.

Answer 10

if you're interested in reaction rate, it's the nature of the reactants that matter. Things like temperature, concentration, and surface area will affect reaction rate

Answer 11

So for Experiment 1 you can use the same materials, just add sugar or something. Then write out the procedure, which is basically saying you filled the bottles with different substances and then dropped the Alka-Seltzer. Then record what you saw happen and remember which bottle was which.

Answer 12

Dude, I couldn't thank you enough. Thank you!!

Answer 13

Yep, and then for the second one just use hot water and cold water, so the hot water will dissolve the Alka-Seltzer faster because heat causes the reaction to speed up.

Answer 14

Okay perfect!
