Rate of Reaction Flashcards
1
Q
increasing the concentration of a solution…
A
increases the rate of reaction
2
Q
Increasing the surface area of a solid…
A
increases the rate of reation
3
Q
increasing the temperature of a solution…
A
increases the rate of reaction
4
Q
When a catalyst is used…
A
the rate of reaction increases
5
Q
Equilibrium:
A
- the concentration of reactants and products remain constant
- occurs in a closed system
- rate of forward and backwards reactions are same
6
Q
if you have to cool the reactants to get products..
A
its an exothermic reaction
7
Q
if you have to heat the reactants to get products
A
it an endothermic reaction
8
Q
when pressure is increased…
A
equilibrium favors the reaction with a smaller number of molecules
9
Q
when pressure is decreased…
A
equilibrium favors the reaction with a larger number of molecules
10
Q
when you increase the concentration of the reactant…
A
higher yield of product is formed
