To see how fast limestone dissolves in an acid solution.
Surface Area

Aim: To see how fast limestone dissolves in an acid solution.
Prediction:
I predict that that 1 solid limestone weighing 3g will take longer to dissolve than powdered limestone weighing 3g. I predict this because the more surface area there is exposed to the hydrochloric acid the faster reaction will take place, therefore it will dissolve quicker.
Apparatus:
Glass beaker
Cork
Hydrochloric acid
Calcium Carbonate
Glass bowl
Stopwatch
Method:
1) Collect 1 solid piece, 2 solid pieces, 3 solid pieces a...
