Popis: An experiment analyzing the kinetics of dissolution of a solid with cylindrical geometry in water is presented. The dissolution process is followed by measuring the solid mass and its size parameters (thickness and diameter) as a function of time. It is verified that the dissolution rate follows the Nernst model. Data treatment is compared with the dissolution of a spherical solid previously described. Kinetics, diffusion concepts, and polynomial fitting of experimental data are combined in this simple experiment.
