Discussion
For each part of this lab present your results and conclusions in formal lab report format. A paragraph
will be sufficient for each of the five parts to this lab. In clearly worded and complete sentences
describe what reactions were carried out and present your observations and findings. When possible
include the chemical equation involved. Refer the reader to the appropriate data table (for example
See Table 1.).
Be sure to use collision theory to explain your findings. For example: Increasing surface area by
crushing the marble caused the reaction to occur Comparing the results in table 1, solid marble reacted ________
than powdered marble. Increasing surface area by crushing the solid caused the reaction to occur__________
because
Conclusion
Summarize the major findings of the activity. What are the five factors that affect reaction rate?
The five factors that affect reaction rate are
