Q

How does temperature effect the rate if reaction

A

Higher temperature results in a quicker reaction because the particles have more energy energy which results in more particles colliding with more energy than the activation energy

Q

How does Surface Area effect the rate of reaction

A

A larger surface area results in a quicker reaction because more reactant is exposed to the solution which means more frequent collisions

Q

How does a catalyst effect the rate of reaction

A

Catalysts increase the rate of reaction by offering a alternate pathway which has a lower activation energy which results in more successful collisions
