Effect of Temperature on Sodium Thiosulphate

Introduction and Preliminary Results.
There are five factors which affect the rate of a reaction, according to the collision theory of reacting particles: temperature, concentration (of solution), pressure (in gases), surface are (of solid reactants), and catalysts. I have chosen to investigate the effect temperature and concentration have on a reaction. This is because they are the most practical to investigate - it would take longer to prepare a solid in powdered and solid form, and it is difficult to get accurate readings due to the inevitabilities of human errors. …
