Chemistry : Rate of Reaction

Target Language or Knowledge:

Rate of reaction
The activation energy is → the minimum energy needed for a reaction to take place upon proper collision of reactants, The Reaction rate → is the speed at which reactant is used up and product forms, Increasing the concentration of reactants increases → the number of collisions and also increases the reaction rate, A catalyst speeds up the rate of a reaction by → lowering the energy of activation, The catalytic converter in your car is used to remove → CO and NO and unburned fuel , At equilibrium → the rate of the forward reaction becomes equal to the rate of the reverse reaction, At equilibrium → the forward and reverse reactions continue at equal rates in both directions, When equilibrium is reached, → there is no further change in the amounts of reactant and product This means that for the followi, [A]/[B] = → constant, Le Châtelier’s principle → states that any change in equilibrium conditions upsets the equilibrium of the system;, Factors affecting the rate of reaction: → 1. temperature 2. concentration reactants 3. catalyst
