\___
When a bond is broken what happens to the energy and exo or endo
Endothermic and energy is absorbed
When a bond is formed what happens to the energy and exo or endo
Exothermic and energy is released
What influence does Increase temp have on reaction rate in
Increased average Ek of the particles
What influence does increased concentration have on reaction rate
Increased no. Of particles
What influence does increased surface area have on reaction rate
Increased no. of collisions per unit time
What influence does increased pressure have on reaction rate
Increased concentration of particles
What are the units of reaction rate
Mol/dm/s
Or
Mol. dm^-1. s^-1
Label energy graph
• Left hand side = potential energy
• Bottom = reaction progress
• ___ reactants first then ___ products
• activation energy measured from reactants - activated complex
• activated complex = peak of graph
• heat of reaction is difference between reactants and products
- if reactants are lower than products = endothermic
- if products are lower than reactants = exothermic
