1. Safia investigates the reaction between magnesium ribbon and dilute sulfuric acid.
In each experiment Safia uses 25 cm3 of sulfuric acid.
She records the temperature of the acid and then adds some magnesium ribbon.

When the magnesium has finished reacting she records the temperature of the acid again.
Sofia does this experiment six times.
Each time she uses a different length of magnesium ribbon
Look at Safias results.

Safia then calculates the temperature change for each reaction.

Put her results, including the temperature changes, into a table.
