Method:
1. Gather the burette, flask, funnel, glass plate, Vernier with gas pressure sensor and burette
stand.
2. Pour 50 mL of desired HCl into the burrette while its in the burette stand.
3. Weigh 1.00 g of Mg on the electric scale. If you use a glass plate to put the Mg on while
you measure it be sure to zero out the scale.
4. Put 20 mL of HCl into the flask.
5. Prepare the Mg to be put into the flask and be sure to quickly put the gas pressure sensor
on the flask as soon as the Mg is put into the flask. So you can avoid losing data and
error. Also, make sure the gas pressure sensor is closed and not open.
6. Put the 1.00 gram of Mg into the flask with 20 mL of HCl. Then quickly but the gas
pressure sensor onto the flask.
7. Let the reaction run for 105 seconds then open the gas pressure sensor.
8. Remove the gas pressure sensor and repeat the steps for each trial.
Results:
*NOTE* The amount of time each trial ran was inconsistent which could contribute to a
lot of the error. Due to the inconsistent times I recorded the pressure at 20, 40, 60, 80 and
100 seconds of each reaction.

Analysis: There was a little error in the beginning of the reaction because the gas sensor pressure
allowed a little of the gas out from the reaction.
