Gas Collection Method

What is Gas Collection Method?

A practical technique for following a reaction rate by measuring the volume of gas produced at regular time intervals, using either a gas syringe attached to the reaction flask or an inverted measuring cylinder filled with water standing in a trough. The gas must be insoluble in water for the second version to work.

This definition is part of the Chemical Reactions chapter in Cambridge O Level Chemistry.
