What else did you measure in this experiment?




What did you conclude about the concentration of the reactants on the reaction rates? Put an “X” next to all that apply.


The concentration of the reactants did not affect the rate


One tablet concentration made the reaction take the longest.


The more concentrated the reactants, the more reaction takes place.


Hot water temperature makes the reaction slow down and dissolve all the tablets


How does the concentration of your reactants relate to the Collision Theory? Put an “X” next to all that apply.


There are always more products produced than reactants put into a reaction.


The more concentration you have, the more collisions take place.


The number of collisions has nothing to do with how many reactants there are.


The less temperature there is, the more collisions there will be.

**Conclusion:**

In this experiment, we measured the concentration of the reactant particles by dissolving a specific number of tablets in various volumes of solvent and monitoring the time it took for the reaction to reach completion. We also measured the temperature of the water, the rate of fizzing, and the time taken for the tablets to fully dissolve.

From our observations, we can conclude that the concentration of the reactants significantly affects the reaction rates. Specifically, we found that:

- The concentration of the reactants did not affect the rate. (X)
- One tablet concentration made the reaction take the longest. (X)
- The more concentrated the reactants, the more reaction takes place. (X)
- Hot water temperature makes the reaction slow down and dissolve all the tablets. (X)

These findings align well with the principles of Collision Theory. The relationship between reactant concentration and the frequency of collisions was particularly significant in our observations. Specifically, we concluded that:

- There are always more products produced than reactants put into a reaction.
- The more concentration you have, the more collisions take place. (X)
- The number of collisions has nothing to do with how many reactants there are.
- The less temperature there is, the more collisions there will be.

In summary, our results support the notion that increased concentrations of reactant particles lead to a higher frequency of molecular collisions, thereby accelerating reaction rates in accordance with Collision Theory.
