(3 cards)
1
Q
What is chemical kinetics
A
The study of reaction rates by obserbing how fast reactants disappear and products form
2
Q
What does collision theory state
A
Chemical reactions occur when particles collide with sufficient energy and proper orientation
3
Q
What factors affect the rate of collisiom
A
Temperature, surface area, concentration and catalysts
