 * THE STUDY OF REACTION TIMES BETWEEN VARIOUS ACIDS AND BAKING SODA **


 * ABSTRACT **

The purpose of this study was to determine the length of time that acids and baking soda react. When acids and bases come together they react by combining ions and creating water and a byproduct chemical. Acids and bases were combined to see how long they would react. With more acid or more base, reactions tended to last longer. More hydroxide ions, hydrogen ions and carbon result in a longer reaction time.

 An improvement to this experiment would be to clean the beaker more thoroughly in between experiments. In the future, it would be interesting to mix much larger quantities of the ingredients that were used.
