Q

What is the calculation for mean rate of reaction?

A

mean ror = quantity of reactants used/time take
or
mean ror = quantity of products formed/time taken

16
Q

What is true about energy during endo and exo reversible reactions?

A

Energy transferred from surroundings by endo is equal to energy transferred to surroundings during exothermic

17
Q

What is Le Chateliers Principle?

A

The idea that if you change the conditions of a reversible reaction at equilibrium, the system will try and counteract the change

18
Q

What happens to equilibrium when temperature is decreased?

A

*Equilibrium move in the exothermic direction to produce more heat
*More products for the exothermic reaction and fewer for the endothermic

19
Q

What happens to equilibrium when temperature is increased?

A

*Equilibrium move in the endothermic direction to try and decrease heat
*More products for the endothermic reaction and fewer for the exothermic

20
Q

What happens to equilibrium when pressure is increased?

A

*Equilibrium tries to reduce and shifts to direction with fewer molecules of gas

21
Q

What happens to equilibrium when pressure is decreased?

A
  • Equilibrium tries to increase it and shifts to direction with more molecules of gas
22
Q

What happens if you change concentration of reactants or products?

A

The system will no longer be at equilibrium

23
Q

What happens if you increase conc of reactants?

A

More products formed to decrease it

24
Q

What happens if you decrease conc of reactants?

A

More reactants formed to increase it

25
Q

What are catalysts?

A

Change the rate of reaction without being used up in the reaction

26
Q

How do catalysts speed up rates of reaction?

A

Providing a different reaction pathway for a reaction, that has a lower activation energy
