A Pyrotechician is working on a new fourth of July rocket. He is using a highly reactive metal when burned. What can he use to lower the reaction rate????
Answered by bobpursley
larger particles, separate the particles with a filler (expanded clay?).

What things influence the rate of reaction?
Answered by Anomynous
Temperature influences the reaction rate i think
Answered by bobpursley
yes, you can lower the temperature...but with fireworks that is difficult.

Particle size is another factor.

Closeness is another factor.
