Question 34

The graph shows how the volume of carbon dioxide gas produced changes over time during the reaction between calcium carbonate chips and dilute hydrochloric acid.

A graph showing the volume of carbon dioxide gas produced in cm³ on the vertical axis against time in seconds on the horizontal axis. The curve starts steep from the origin, gradually becomes less steep as time increases, and eventually levels off to a horizontal line.

Explain, in terms of particles, why the rate of this reaction decreases as the reaction takes place.
