Does The Temperature Of Hydrochloric Acid Affect The Rate Of TheChemical Reaction Between Hydrolic Acid And Magnesium?Analysis Temperature of conviction taken for Secondshydrochloric social disease 0c magnesium to react 14 141 20 80 27 73 39 55 50 52 60 51Hydrochloric acid + magnesium magnesium chloride + hydrogen2 Hcl MG MGCL2 H2 From my results I can conclude that the hotter the hydrochloric acidthe quicker the reaction time between the acid and magnesium. Theresults show certain patterns and trends, for example the test wherethe acid was at 14 C the magnesium took 141 seconds to react and 27 Ctest took 73 seconds to react. This shows nearly that if you doublethe temperature then the reaction time will half.The reason that when the hydrochloric acid was at 14 C the reactiontime for all the magnesium to re act was 141 seconds was because themolecules of the acid and magnesium didnt have a lot of kineticenergy, so there was not much movement therefore there were not manysuccessful collisions. Successful collisions are when the moleculescontain enough kinetic energy to collide forcefully enough to breakthe bonds between the hydrogen and the chloride particles this ineluctablyto take place for any reaction to happen. If there is not a sufficientamount of kinetic energy, the particles just bounce off of each othercausing no reaction. On the other hand the reason when the
