Reaction Rates 2 ANS mn78

The document discusses factors affecting reaction rates, including activation energy, concentration, pressure, surface area, catalysts, and temperature. It emphasizes that increasing surface area leads to more frequent successful collisions, thereby increasing reaction rates. Additionally, it outlines the importance of interpreting graphs and calculating mean rates in relation to chemical reactions.

REACTION RATES 2

3
1 a 4 cm /s
b 0.030 g/s
c 0.00167 mol/s

2 a For particles to react with other, they must have enough energy and collide with each other. The minimum amount of
energy particles need is called the activation energy.
b The rate of a chemical reaction can be changed by changing concentration of solutions, pressure of gases, surface
area of solids, the presence of a catalyst and temperature
c A catalyst is a substance that speeds up a reaction but is not used up .

Volume of
hydrogen

(cm )

A C

Time (s)

a surface area
b time or rate
c i temperature, concentration of acid, volume of acid, mass of calcium carbonate
ii changing these factors would affect the reaction rate
d 0.45, 3.3
e powder
f bigger the surface are, the lower the time
g bigger the surface are, the faster the rate
h bigger the surface are, the more particles that be involved in collisions, so there more are frequent successful
collisions
