Q

What is the collision theory?

A

the more collisions there are the faster the reaction is.E.g doubling the frequency of collisions doubles the rate.
the energy transferred during a collision.Particles have to collide with enough energy for the collision to be successful.

Q

How does increasing temperature incrase rate of reaction?

A

when the temp is increased, the particles will move faster.If moving faster, they collide more frequently.also the faster they move the more energy they have, so more of the coillisions will have enough energy to make the reaction happen

Q

How does increasing the concentration or pressure increase the rate of reaction?

A

if a solution is made more concentrated, it means there are more particles knocking about in the same volume of water.(or other solvent).This makes collisions between the reactant particles more frequent.

Q

How does increasing the surface area increase the rate of reaction?

A

if one reactant is a solid, then breaking it up into smaller pieces will increase its sufrace area to volume ratio.
this means that for the same volume of the solid, the particles around it will have more area to work on - so there will be collisions more frequently.

Q

How does using a catalyst increase the rate of reaction?

A

they do this by providing an alternative reaction pathway with a lower activation energy .Enzymes are biological catalysts - they catalyse reactions in living things.

Q

what is a reversible reaction?

A

as more and more products are made their concentrations rise, the backward reaction will speed up.Eventually the forward reaction will go at the same rate as the backward reaction - the system is at equilbrium.

Q

What does the position of the equilibrium show.

A

if to the left, the concentration of products is greater than that of the reactants
if to the right,the concentration of reactants is greater than that of the products

Q

What determines what side the position of equilibrium is?

A

temp
the pressure
concentration

17
Q

Is a reversible reaction endothermic or exothermic?

A

if the reaction is endothermic in one direction, it will be exothermic in the other.

18
Q

What is Le Chatelier’s principle?

A

the idea that if u change the conditions of a revcersible reaction at equilbrium, the system will try to counteract that change.
can be used to predict the effect of any changes you make to a reaction system.

19
Q

How does temeperature determine the position of Equilibrium?

A

If you decrease the temperature, the equilibrium will move in the exothermic direction to produce more heat.
If you raise the temperature , the equilibrium will move in the endothermic direction to try and decrease it .

20
Q

How does the pressure determine the position of Equilibrium?

A

only affects when involving gases
If increase pressure, equil tries to reduce it, moves to direction with fewer molecules of gas
If decrease pressure, equil tries to increase it,move to direction with more molecules of gas.

21
Q

How does concentration determine the position of Equilibrium?

A

If you increase the concentration of reactants,system tries to decrease it by making more products
If you decrease the concentration of products, systen tries to increase it again by reducing the amount of reactants.

Q

asda

23
Q

What is the mean rate of reaction is equal to?

A

quantity of reactant used time taken
Or
quantity of product formed time taken

24
Q

What are the quantities of reactants or products measured in?

A

The quantities can be mass in grams or volume cm^3

25
Q

The units for rate of reaction are ?

A

g/s or cm^3/s

(HT)mol/s

26
Q

State the factors that affect the rate of reaction

A

Concentration of reactants in solution

The pressure of reaction gases
The surface area of solid reactants
The temperature
The presence of a catalyst

27
Q

Describe what “collison theory”

A

A chemical reaction can only take place when reacting particles collide with each other with enough energy

28
Q

What is activation energy??

A

Activation energy is the minium amount of energy that particles must have to react.

29
Q

How does concentration, pressure and surface area increase rate of reaction?

A

Increases the number of successful collision

30
Q

How temperature increase rate of reaction?

A

Temperature increases the number of successful collisions and increases the amount of energy is in the collision

31
Q

How does a catalyst increase the rate of reaction?

A

Catalysts increase the rate of reaction by providing a different pathway for a reaction

32
Q

With respect o energy what rule does a reversible reaction follow?

A

If a reversible reaction is exothermic in one direction it will be endothermic in the reverse direction

33
Q

If a reversible reaction takes place in close equipment…

A

the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the reverse reaction.This is called equilibtrium

34
Q

Describe Le Chateliers principle

A

If a reaction is at equilibriumk and a change is made equilibrium will shift to counteract this change.
