Answers:
In this experiment, were intentionally manipulated. These were the independent variables.:temperature and surface area
The dependent variable measured was .:time of the reaction

Why is it important to keep the temperature and the amount of water the same when testing surface area?

Answer:

It is important to keep the temperature and the amount of water constant so that the experiment is a controlled test. By keeping these variables the same, you ensure that surface area is the only independent variable affecting the reaction rate. If temperature or water volume changed, you would not be able to determine which factor caused the observed change in the rate of reaction.

Which procedures were followed in this lab to decrease experimental error? Check all that apply.

A
repeating the experiment three times for each temperature
B
changing the volume of solution during each step
C
using three different temperatures instead of only two
D
using different types of antacids with different chemical formulas
E
using three different surface areas instead of only two

Which glow stick will be brighter once it is bent? Explain your answer.

Answer:

The glow stick that was in the cup of hot water will be brighter once it is bent. The production of more light is evidence that the chemical reaction in the glow stick is happening faster. The reaction happens faster because increasing the temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction, leading to more frequent and energetic collisions between molecules.

Which of the following did you include in your answer? Check all that apply.

A
The temperature and the amount of water need to be kept the same so that the only variable that changes is the surface area.
B
If you allow the temperature and/or the amount of water to change too, you will not know which variable is causing the changes that you observe.
