1. Sally performed an experiment u,'hich consisted of a :eries of slt tests to investi-eate the effect of
tempeiature on the rate of reaction. The same rrass of c=i.-ium carbouate, CaCO-, chips rvas allowed
to react with an excess of dilute hydrochloric acid at difrtrerrt temperatures. Carbon dioxide
gas was

produced from the reaction and the time taken to uolle;: i,' ;u:- ..ithis sas for EACH test is showil in
