Reaction Rates and Collision Theory

Investigating how concentration, temperature, and catalysts affect the speed of a chemical reaction.

Key Questions

  1. 1Why must particles collide with a specific orientation and energy for a reaction to occur?
  2. 2How does a catalyst lower the activation energy without being consumed in the process?
  3. 3What is the relationship between the rate law and the mechanism of a reaction?
