chem)16)Rate of reac

QuestionAnswer
rate of reaction change in concentration per unit time
average rate of reaction rate of change over a period in time
collision theory particles must collide with one another in order to react and have sufficent energy for a effective collision
activation energy? Minimum energy that colliding particles must have for an effective collision to occur.
what factors affect rate of reaction Nature of reactants Particle size Concentration Temperature Catalysts Pressure (for all-gaseous reaction)
how does temperature affect ROR increased temperature,particles have increased kinetic energy which means particles reach activation enrergy quicker
how does concentration affect ROR The more particles the greater the chance of there being an effective collision per unit time.
what is a catalyst a substance that alters the rate of reaction without being used up in the process
how do catalysts work increase the rate of reaction by providing an alternative pathway with a lower activation energy
Are ionic bonds fast or slow to break generally fast as there is no bond breaking or forming
Are covalent bonds fast or slow to break slower as bonds need to be broken before a reaction could take place
Adsorption Reactants adsorbed onto the surface of the catalyst in the correct orientation and in high concentration. Temporary weak bonds form between the reactant and the catalyst There is a high concentration of reactant
desorption The products leave the surface of the catalyst
Heterogeneous Catalysis The reactant(s) and catalyst are in different phases
Intermediate formation theory of catalysis Pink at the beginning of the reaction - colour of the catalyst (Co2+) solution. Bubbling and gas are produced as reaction mixture turns green due to formation of intermediate complex.
Limitations of the collision theory Orientation Particles must collide in the correct orientation for a reaction to occur but it makes it less accurate at predicting rates of reactions involving complex molecules.
Limitations of the collision theory 2. Catalysts Saturation of catalysts If the surface of the catalyst is fully occupied by the reactant molecules, increasing the concentration will have no effect on the rate of reaction
Limitations of the collision theory 3. Concentration Limiting reagents: When a reaction involves multiple reactants, an increase in the concentration of one reactant may not alter the rate of reaction unless there is a sufficient amount of the other reactants also present.
what is a reaction profile diagram Graph that shows the change in energy of a chemical reaction with time as the reaction progresses.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
