Rate of Reaction Flashcards
List some methods for measuring RoR
Definition of RoR
The measure of how quickly and readily and substance is used up
What is concentration and how does it effect RoR
Cocentration is the measurement of how many particles of a substance is in a certain volume of eg. water
An increase of concentration is an increase number of particles in a certain volume therefore if the particles are increased theres an increase in number of sucessful collisons
What is tempurature and how does it effect RoR
Measure of how much knetic energy there is
increase knetic energy increase chne of collison increse rate of reaction
What is the Surface Area and how does it affect RoR
What is a Catalyst and how does it affect RoR
The four factors that affect RoR are:
Key aspects of collision theory:
Definition of Activation Energy:
Formula to calculate Activation energy:
Definiton of and signs for exothermic reaction:
Exothermic reactions give out energy therefore on an energy level diagram the reactants are above the products
Formula to calculate Overall energy change:
Definition and sign for endothermic reactions
endothermic reactions absorb energy
Therefore on an energy level diagram reactants are
