1. An experiment was conducted to find out the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction.
50 cm3 of sodium thiosulphate solution 0.2 mol dm-3 at 30 oC was put into a 150 cm3
conical flask. Then the conical flask was placed on an “X” sign on a piece of white paper.
5 cm3 of sulphuric acid 1.0 mol dm-3 was added to the sodium thiosulphate solution and
shaken. At the same time, the stop watch was started. The stop watch was stopped as
soon as the “X” sign was no longer visible. The same steps of the experiment were
repeated for sodium thiosulphate solution which was heated to 35oC, 40oC, 45oC and
50oC.
Diagram 1 shows the reading of the stop watch for each of the reaction at different
temperatures.
