3
Q
What is a single replacement reaction?
A
When two atoms switch places in a reaction scheme.
4
Q
What is reaction rate?
A
How fast a reaction occurs.
5
Q
How does temperature affect reaction rate?
A
When it’s hotter the particles move faster, which makes it mix faster and have a faster reaction
6
Q
How does concentration affect reaction rate?
A
More particles in one place which means more collisions which means faster reaction.
7
Q
How does adding a catalyst affect reaction rate?
A
It lowers the energy required to start a reaction
