Measuring Rates of Reaction

Cards (7)

  • A graph with a steeper gradient at the beginning and reaching a horizontal gradient faster depicts a high rate of reaction.
  • Gas Evolved
  • Mass Loss
  • Colour Change
  • If a gas evolves, measure loss in mass per unit time by placing on a balance then putting a cotton wool on top to allow gas to pass but not to enter
  • If a gas evolves, measure volume of gas produced per unit time using a gas syringe
  • If a colour change , measure the time taken to turn cloudy
