Studied by 0 peopletemperature, concentration, surface area and catalysts
affect of increasing temperature
particles get more kinetic energy, leading to more collisions per second
an ________ in temperature, increases the number of particles with an energy high enough for a collision
increase
affect of increasing concentration
there are more particles in the same volume, meaning a higher chance of a successful collision
by increasing the ___________, you are increasing the number of particles in the same volume
concentration
affect of increasing the surface area
higher number of particles are exposed to the other reactant and can therefore react faster
because more particles of the solid reactant are exposed, there will be more ________ collisions, leading to an increase in the rate of reaction
frequent
affect of a catalyst
provides an alternative reaction pathway with a lower activation energy, as a result the reaction rate increases
catalysts _____ consumed in the reaction and so they are shown in a written reaction above the arrow
aren’t
