Reaction Rates and Collision Theory
Investigating how concentration, temperature, and catalysts affect the speed of a chemical reaction.
Key Questions
- 1Why must particles collide with a specific orientation and energy for a reaction to occur?
- 2How does a catalyst lower the activation energy without being consumed in the process?
- 3What is the relationship between the rate law and the mechanism of a reaction?
