Rate of reaction — practice question

An excess amount of calcium carbonate is added to dilute hydrochloric acid, X. The carbon dioxide gas released is collected, and its volume is measured at regular time intervals. Line X on the graph represents the results obtained. The experiment is carried out again using dilute hydrochloric acid, Y. Line Y on the graph represents the results obtained. Which statement about the two hydrochloric acid samples, X and Y, is correct?

  • AThey had the same volume but Y had higher concentration.
  • BThey had the same concentration but Y had a larger volume.
  • CX had a higher concentration but Y had a larger volume.
  • DY had a higher concentration but X had a larger volume.
