Which change does not increase the speed of reaction between zinc and hydrochloric acid?

When solid zinc is dropped into hydrochloric acid solution, it falls to the bottom due to its higher density. The reaction occurs at the surface of the zinc metal and generates hydrogen gas that bubbles up through the solution. You can tell that the rate increases because the rate of bubble formation increases. This will naturally occur because the reaction is exothermic and will warm the solution around the zinc metal. The higher temperature will increase the reaction rate.

If you want a more quantitative analysis of reaction rate, you can perform the experiment in a eudiometer tube that is inverted and completely filled with liquid. As the hydrogen gas collects in the tube you can measure its accumulated volume with time. That will allow you to determine an approximate kinetic rate law for the process. The rate law determined in this manner will suffer from error due to temperature and surface area changes as well as gas volume error due to water vapor. But, it is an interesting application of chemical kinetics.

Any factor that causes molecules to collide more frequently speeds up the reaction rate. This is achieved by an increase of the reactants concentration, surface area, raised temp. , raised pressure of gaseous reactant, or an addition of catalysts to the reactant

H2SO4 is added to a large beaker of water. How is the solution different from the original water?
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer is: A) The solution turns blue litmus to red.

Sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) is a strong acid, it means that the solution of sufuric acid is more acidic (pH<7) than water (pH = 7).

Chemical dissociation of sulfuric acid in water:  

H₂SO₄(aq) → 2H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq).

When solution turns phenolphthalein pink, it means it is basic (pH>7).

Sulfuric acid has more hydrogen ions (H⁺) and less hydroxide ions (OH⁻) than water.

The beakers in the picture above are labeled according to the ionic solutions they contain. What metal or metals could replace c
tangare [24]

Explanation:

When a metal replaces another metal in solution, we say such a reaction has undergone a single displacement reaction.

In such a reaction, metal higher up in the activity series replaces another one due to their position.

To known the metal or metals that will replace the given copper, we need to reference the activity series of metals.

Every metal higher than copper in the series will displace copper from the solution.

So, there metals are: potassium, sodium, lithium, barium, strontium etc.

What is electronic configuration? What is the Law of Constant Composition?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

The law of constant proportions states that chemical compounds are made up of elements that are present in a fixed ratio by mass. This implies that any pure sample of a compound, no matter the source, will always consist of the same elements that are present in the same ratio by mass.

Why is it important for scientist to be repeatable?
Margarita [4]
It is important for scientists to be repeatable so it lets them see patterns and trends in their results. This is affirmative for their work, making it stronger and better able to support their claims. This helps maintain integrity of data.
