Question
Answer
reaction rate   the change in concentration of a reactant or product per unit time, expressed as mol/(ls)  
🗑
Collision theory   atoms, ions, and molecules must collide with each other in order to react.  
🗑
activated complex/transition state   an intermediate particle made up of the joined reactants  
🗑
activation energy   minimum amount of energy that colliding particles must have in order to form an activated complex  
🗑
catalyst/enzyme   a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself being consumed in the reaction  
🗑
inhibitor   a substance that slows down, or inhibits, reaction rates.  
🗑
rate law   the equation that expresses the mathematical relationship between the rate of a chemical reaction and the concentration of reactants  
🗑
specific rate constant   numerical value that relates reaction rate and concentration of reactants at a given temp.  
🗑
reaction order   the reaction order for a reactant defines how the rate is affected by the concentration of that reaction.  
🗑
complex reaction   a certain series of steps mus occur with correct fit and in an exact sequence in order to yield trhe reaction products  
🗑
reaction mechanism   the SERIES OF STEPS that must occur with correct fit and in an exact sequence in order to yield trhe reaction products  
🗑
intermediate   an atom,ion or molecule prduced in one step of a reaction adn consumed in a later step  
🗑
rate-determining step   determines how fast the reaction forms products, no matter how fast the other steps are  
🗑
chemical kinetics   the study of the sped at which chemical and physical processes take place  
🗑
rate law   a mathematical expression showing how a change in the concentration affects the rate of the reaction  
🗑
reversible reation   one that can occur in both the FORWARD and the REVERSE directions  
🗑
chemical equlibrium   a state in which the forward an dreverse reactions balance each otehr because they take place at equal rates  
🗑
law of chemical equlibrium   at a given temp, a chem system may reach a state in which a particular ration of reactant and product concentrations has a constant value  
🗑
equilibrium constant   the numerical value of the ration product concentrations to reactant concentrations, with each concentration raised to the power corresponding to its coefficient in the balanced equation  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
