22. Hydrogen gas is formed when magnesium reacts with dilute sulphuric acid.
The apparatus shown in Fig. 3.1 can be used to study the rate of this reaction.
A student carried out a fair test to find out how the temperature of the sulphuric acid affected the rate of reaction. He
added magnesium ribbon to excess sulphuric acid.
He carried out two experiments, A and B, the results of which are shown in Fig. 3.2.
(a) (i) State one of the variables the student must keep the same in both experiments, A and B, so that he carries out a
fair test.
