0 1 This question is about rates of reaction.
Figure 1 shows apparatus used to measure the rate of reaction when an acid reacts
with an excess of solid sodium hydrogencarbonate, NaHCO3
When different monoprotic organic acids are used, the rates at which gas escapes
can be used to compare the strengths of the acids.
A timer is started when the NaHCO3 is added to the acid and
the mass of CO2 gas lost is recorded at regular intervals.
(It is assumed that any change in mass is due to the loss of CO2)
Figure 1
0 1 . 1 Suggest a reason why using a conical flask instead of a beaker would give more
accurate results in this experiment.
