Which of the following will decrease the number of effective collisions during a chemical reaction? Select one: a. Decreasing the temperature. b. Increasing the surface area. c. Increasing reactant concentrations. d. Adding a catalyst.
A –> Decreasing the temperature will cause the molecules in a reaction to decrease in speed. As a result, the number of collisions decrease as the energy required for an effective collision can not be reached as frequently.
A catalyst increases the rate of a chemical reaction by…. Select one: a. increasing kinetic energy. b. decreasing the heat of reaction. c. providing an alternate reaction mechanism. d. increasing the temperature e. increasing the concentration of reactants.
C. A catalyst is a substance that can create a new mechanism within a reaction in order to create a lower activation energy, and as a result it will increase the rate of the chemical reaction.
Consider the following reaction: N 2+ 3H2 ⇌ 2NH3 The rate of formation of NH3 is 3.0 mL/min . The rate of consumption of H2 is…. Select one: a. 1.5 mL/min b. 9.0 mL/min c. 3.0 mL/min d. 4.5 mL/min e. 2.0 mL/min

C –> III would be the fastest as a result of the Zn being in powder form. An increase in surface area causes an increase in reaction rate. I would be fast as the high concentration of HCl would increase the reaction rate. II would be slowest as the concentration of HCl is low, and the surface area of Zn is small in the cube form.
