| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Another name for the 'activated complex' is the '[...] state'. | Another name for the 'activated complex' is the 'transition state'. |
| Collision Theory: In chemical reactions, reactants [...] to form transition states and, subsequently, products. | Collision Theory: In chemical reactions, reactants collide to form transition states and, subsequently, products. |
| diluting or reducing the concentration of reactants would [...] the number of collisions and [...] the reaction rate. | diluting or reducing the concentration of reactants would decrease the number of collisions and slow the reaction rate. |
| Temperature is a measure of the [...] of molecules. | Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of molecules. |
| Changing [...] alters the frequency and energy of reactant collisions. | Changing temperature alters the frequency and energy of reactant collisions. |
| If you reduce the pressure, you increase the space between the molecules, reduce the frequency of collisions between reactant molecules, and [...] the rate of reaction. | If you reduce the pressure, you increase the space between the molecules, reduce the frequency of collisions between reactant molecules, and reduce the rate of reaction. |
| [-ing] surface area increases the frequency of collisions. | Increasing surface area increases the frequency of collisions. |
| Catalysts effectively increase the number of collisions with sufficient [...] to react. | Catalysts effectively increase the number of collisions with sufficient energy to react. |
