Chemical Reactions

Year 10 science students have been busy performing an investigation to compare the reactivity of different metals. Small samples of the test metals are placed in a side-arm test tube and immersed in an acid. The gas released from the reaction is caught in a measuring cylinder which allows for numerical comparison of the different metals.
