The rate of a chemical reaction is a measure of how fast the reactants are being used up and how fast the products are being made. Reactions in which a gas is produced can be used to monitor the rate.
The hydrothermal alteration of mantle rocks (referred to as serpentinization) occurs in submarine environments extending from mid-ocean ridges to subduction zones. Serpentinization affects the ...
We can use a gas syringe to measure the reaction of metals with dilute acid. When zinc reacts with hydrochloric acid it produces zinc chloride and hydrogen gas. We can measure the rate of the reaction ...
