Name two of the factors that could affect the rate of reaction?

1 answer

1. Temperature: An increase in temperature typically leads to an increase in the rate of reaction as it provides more energy for molecules to collide and react. Conversely, a decrease in temperature can slow down the rate of reaction as molecules have less energy to react.

2. Concentration: A higher concentration of reactants typically leads to a faster rate of reaction as there are more particles available to collide and react. Conversely, a lower concentration of reactants can slow down the rate of reaction as there are fewer particles available to collide and react.
