Kinetics Flashcards
1
Q
What happens when you change the reaction of the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution
A
Will alter the shape
2
Q
What happens to the max well Boltzmann distribution when temperature rises
A
Shifts to the right
3
Q
What is a catalyst
A
Increased the rate of a reaction by providing an alternate reaction pathway with a lower activation energy and do not get used up
4
Q
Why are catalyst used in industrial processes
A
Less energy needed when used catalyst meaning saving money on high energy
5
Q
What does a catalyst do to activation energy
A
Lowers it
6
Q
What happens to the maxwell Boltzmann graph when using a catalyst
A
Moves to the left
