Starter
Why do iron filings burn in a bunsen flame and an iron bar does not ?

2. Practical SAFETY – WEAR GOGGLES AT ALL TIMES.
SAFETY – REPORT ALL SPILLS AND BREAKAGES.
Measure out 1g of marble chips and put into a flask.
Add 25cm3 of Hydrochloric acid.
Place on a balance and record the mass over time.
Repeat this but using powdered marble.
All waste chemicals are to go into the bowl
NOT DOWN THE SINK.

3. Conclusion What has changed with the chemical ?
Surface area is bigger for the powder.
How has this affected the rate of reaction ?
The rate of reaction is faster.
Write your conclusion.
Making the surface area bigger ____________ the rate of reaction.
