Mention 3 variables affecting the rate of a reaction.
temperature, concentration, surface area,
Why increasing in temperature of the reactants can increase rate of reaction?
increase collision between the particles thus increasing the rate.
Which of the following increase the reaction rate?
less surface area. lower temperature. increased concentration
increased concentration
Why does a higher temperature increase the rate of a reaction?
it increases both the frequency and energy of particle collisions
To slow down a chemical reaction you will do one of the following:
Place the reactants in hot water. Place the products in ice bath. Place the reactants in a ice bath. Keep stirring the reactants with a stirring rod.
Place the reactants in a ice bath
How could we make this reaction happen more quickly?
This is reaction between an acid and chalk.
crush the chalk to increase the surface area
Which is the highest concentration?
10m
2M
25 mmol
0.5M
2 M
What is the unit of concentration?
mol/dm3
The major theory of reaction rate is called
Collision theory
When surface area is decreased the rate of reaction...
Decreases, because there are LESS possible sites for effective collisions
What is the rate of reaction?
How fast a reaction is in a certain time
Grinding a effervescent tablet into powder increases the rate of reaction due to increased
surface area
Which changes decrease the rate of reaction between magnesium and air?
1 heating the magnesium to a higher temperature
2 using a higher proportion of oxygen in the air
3 using magnesium ribbon instead of powdered magnesium
3 using magnesium ribbon instead of powdered magnesium
