Rates Of Reactions Flashcards
What are the 4 main variables which affect the rate of reaction
- temperature
- concentration
- particle size
- use of catylist
For a reaction to happen particles must …
Particles must collide with enough energy
Changing the 4 variables either makes …
More collisions or increases the energy
Particle size - the ____ the particle size, the ____ the reaction
Smaller, faster
Concentration - the ____ the concentration, the _____ faster the reaction
Higher, faster
What is the equation for the rate of reaction?
Change in measurable quantity
________________________________
Change in time
Temperature- as temp _________ so does the ________
Increases, rate of reaction
Catylists - catylists ______ the rate of reaction
Increase
What do catalysts not do?
They dont change the frequency of collisions just the frequency of successful collisions
