Net Ionic Reaction
Directions
Effect of Temperature on Rate of Reaction
1. Turn on Hot plate if not already on (turn temp knob to 200-300deg C.
2. Obtain two 250ml beakers.
3. From the 400ml containers of 0.10M HCl, add approximately 40ml of this solution to each of the 250ml beakers. (use side of beaker to measure volume
4. Place one of the two 250ml beaker on the hot plate and let it heat up to some temperature above room temp.(not anywhere near boiling point).
5. After the beaker comes to temperature, take it off the hot plate.
6. Measure out the same amount of (above 1/4 teaspoon) sodium bicabonate (Baking soda) and add this amonut to each container. Do not mix or stir the solid into solution.
7. Record your observation after addition.
Effect of Stirring on Rate of Reaction
1. Now stir the solid and solution for each container (using a coffee stirrer).
2. Record your observation after each stirring.
