Question

Question 1
Introduction: Pre-lab
Collision Theory

According to a model called Collision Theory, three conditions must be met before a chemical reaction can occur. The reactant particles must collide to react, they must collide with enough kinetic energy to react by forming an activation complex, and they must collide with the correct orientation. If two particles collide with insufficient energy or they collide with only glancing blow, they will move away from each other without reacting.



What factors affect reaction rates?

Concentration: the amount of substance that is dissolved in a given amount of another substance

Increasing the number of particles in a given volume will increase the reaction rate because there is a higher probability of collision.

Surface Area: the amount of area exposed to reactants

Increasing the surface area of the solid will increase the reaction rate.

Temperature: the measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in matter

Increasing the kinetic energy in a substance will increase the reaction rate because there is a higher probability of collision.

Catalysts: Lower the activation energy needed for the reaction and increase the reaction rate without being consumed by the reaction.
