Rates of Reaction Flashcards
1
Q
rate of reaction equation
A
amount of reaction used or product formed / time
2
Q
horizontal line
A
reaction has stopped
3
Q
steeper gradient
A
higher rate of reaction
4
Q
time taken on rate
A
longer to take place = slower rate of reaction
5
Q
why is the rate fastest at the beginning?
A
more particles available to react in a given space, more collisions, more reactions
6
Q
when does the reaction stop?
A
when there are no more particles left to react
