Rate of reaction Flashcards
1
Q
Activation energy (AE)
A
The minimum amount of E for a reactions to take occur.
2
Q
Higher temp = higher rxr, why?
A
The particles have more thermal E
Which is converted into KE
More collisions at greater speed T/F more successful collisions.
3
Q
Inc Conc. = higher rxr, why?
A
More particles in the same volume T/F collisions occur more frequently.
4
Q
Inc S.A= higher rxr, why?
A
More frequent collisions.
5
Q
Catalyst?
A
A substance that speeds up the rxr w/o being used up by offering an alternate pathway w/ lower AE.
