Temperature Flashcards
1
Q
How can we increase the surface area?
A
- By dividing it in smaller pieces
2
Q
What does increasing the surface area of a solid do?
A
- It increases the frequency of collisons which increases the rate of reaction
3
Q
As temperature increases what happens?
A
- The particles move faster, meaning there are more frequent collisions
4
Q
What do the particles also have from temperature increasing?
A
- More energy, meaning more collisions are successful as the particles have enough energy to react
5
Q
What does increasing concentration do?
A
- Means that there would be more acid particles in the same volume, including frequency
6
Q
Give an exothermic equation
A
- Methane + Oxygen = CD + Water
7
Q
If the energy transfer is in the form of heat energy then what happens?
A
- There is a change in temperature
