cataylists Flashcards
1
Q
What are cataylists
A
a substrate that increases the rate of reaction
2
Q
How do cataylists work
A
By providing a pathway with a lower activation energy
3
Q
what happens to the particles and collisions in cataylists
A
They have enough energy to react, there are more frequent collisions
4
Q
What do cataylists do
A
speed up the rate of reaction
5
Q
what happens when cataylists are not used up
A
small amounts are only required
6
Q
Explain how cerium oxide increases the rate of reaction activation energy low
A
there is a lower activation energy
