Marble And Hydrochloric Acid

Stone surface material may be lost all over or only in spots that are more reactive.

Marble and hydrochloric acid.

Hydrochloric acid to react with the marble chips independent variable marble chips to react with the acid dependent variable stopwatch to accurately time the experiment spatula to handle the marble chips measuring cylinder to precisely measure out different concentrations of hydryochloric acid electric balance to measure the mass g of the marble chips bung. Marble reaction with hydrochloric acid. The reaction takes place spontaneously. Pieces of marble are thrown into hydro chloric acid.

This experiment is to show how much carbon dioxide is produced during the reaction between an acid hydrochloric acid and marble. The combined reactants have a higher chemical potential than the combined products i e. The overall reaction is 2hcl caco3 cacl2 co2 h2o. Task my task is to measure the rate of reaction between marble chips caco 3 and hydrochloric acid 2 hcl.

Diagram plan the equipment i will be using for this experiment will be as follows. Pieces of marble are thrown into hydro chloric acid. Marble is crystalized caco3. The reaction takes place spontaneously.

In exposed areas of buildings and statues we see roughened surfaces removal of material and loss of carved details. A chemistry investigation to look at the rates of reaction between marble chips and hydrochloric acid. The combined reactants have a higher chemical potential than the combined products i e.

Powdered marble reacts with hydrochloric acid to release bubbles of carbon dioxide gas. Drop a small amount of dilute hydrochloric acid on an area of your sample that has been scratched by a nail. Calcium carbonate is dissolved by hydrochloric acid thereby forming gaseous carbon dioxide. Place 40cm 3 of hydrochloric acid in an conical flask.
