Q

What is a catalyst?

A

Speeds up a chemical reaction without being used up

17
Q

Is a line of best fit always a straight line?

A

no

18
Q

What is an anomalous result?

A

Does not fit on best line of fit

Higher or lower than expected

19
Q

How can an anomalous result be caused in a rates of reaction experiment?

A

Mistake in measuring amount of product or amount of reactant
