1. Obtain two (2) clear plastic cups, half fill each plastic cups
with water.
2. Get two (2) seltzer or denture cleaner tablets. Powderize one
table using mortar and pestle
3. Simultaneously drop the hole table and powderized table in
the 2 separate plastic cups
4. Observe and take note of the reactions for several minutes and
record the time it takes for each tablet to stop fizzing.
5. Record the time in the table below
2.2. In your own words, what are the effects of particle size or
surface area on the rate of reaction. (2pts)
Answer:

4. Compare the rate of discolorization of the papers in the 3
plastics cups. Record your observations in the table below.
What Is It
The rate of chemical reaction is affected by the following factors:
surface area of reactants, concentration of reactants, temperature
and presence of catalyst.

Smaller particles size have bigger surface area. Bigger surface
area means bigger exposed portions of a solid which are available
points of contact between reactants. Breaking a large piece of a
substance into smaller parts increases the surface area. All the inner
materials have no surface when it is inside the large piece. Each
time a large p ortion is broken however, more surface is exposed.
The amount of the material does not change but bre aking it into
smaller parts
increases its surface area.

an Environmental Issue

An example of a chemical reaction that has an environmental concern is
the acid
rain.
Acid rain has been the leading significant cause of
destruction in our environment. In infrastructure, it is the cause
of corrosion of metals in alloys like steel in buildings, bridges, and
transport
vehicles. This is due to the displacement reaction of active metals with hydrogen
in acids.
Materials with historical and cultural values such as monuments and
statues are also destroyed by acid rain. They are mostly made up of limestone
and marble which like metals form a chemical reaction with acids, lead to their
dissolution.
Marine life is also affected by acid rain. It causes the pH of bodies of water
to decrease; this change in pH will increase marine life mortality, retard
fish growth, decrease egg production and
embryo survival.
Acid rain also tends to dissolve vital minerals in the soil. Crops grown in
these depleted soils give poor yields, if they grow at all.
In areas of high automobile traffic, such as in Large cities, the amount of
nitrogen oxides emitted into
main source of acid rain is from automobiles. Other sources are thermal power
plants and coal mining industries. Gas emissions like CO2, CO, SO2, NO2, and
NO from these sources react with water vapor in the air producing acids. Rain
contaminated with these acids are what we know now as acid rain.
