What is the purpose of topping up Solution A to 10 ml with water for each run? To ensure that the concentration of B is constant as the total volume of both solutions is constant, thus ensuring the the concentration of B does not affect the rate of the reaction between experiments 2. Explain how one could design an experiment to determine the order with respect to HSO, for the same reaction analysed in this practical Prepare solution A containing HSO," (0.02M) and solution B containing 10, (0.001M), then conduct the same experiments with those solutions and graph 1/t against the concentration of [HSO, 1 for n = 0, 1, 2. The graph yielding a straight line will have n = order of reaction wrt HSO,.
