Re: chemistry concentration graphs simple please help!I'm unclear as to what the graph relates to but by looking at the graph, I think you are referring to a simple experiment where a constant volume of acid (of varying concentrations) is being added to an EXCESS of some other compound.(Original post by CasualSoul)

Obviously as your acid concentration increases the rate of the reaction increase; hence the higher initial gradient.
However, as the concentration increases so does the number of H+ ions and hence the limiting agent (the acid) allows for a greater volume of gas to be evolved. -
