What does rate of reaction measure? |
It measures how much product is formed in a fixed period of time |
How much product… |
|
What is the speed of reaction (usually) over time? |
Reactions are usually fast at the start and slow down as the reactions are used up |
Fast… Slow down… |
|
What are the units for rate of reaction? |
-G/S (grams per second) G/min (Grams per minute) when measuring the mass of a product formed. G/S for faster reactions -CM3-/S (CM cubed per second) and CM3/min (CM3 per min) when measuring the volume of gas produced. CM3/S for faster reactions. |
-Grams
-Centimetres |
|
What is the equation for the gradient of a graph? |
Gradient=Y/X |
|
|
How can the rate of reaction be works out using a graph? |
It can be worked out from the gradient of the Graaf and be calculated by drawing construction lines. -Choose parts of the graph where there is a straight line not a curved line
-Using the scales on the graph, measure the value of Y and X
-then divide Y by X |

When do reactions occur, what does this mean when the number of reacting particles of one of reactant is limited? |
Reactions occur when particles collide together. So, if the number of reacting particles of one reactant is limited, the number of collisions by particles of that reactant is limited |
When particles… |

|
What does the rate of reaction depend on?what does this mean? |
It depends on the number of collisions between reacting particles the higher the number of collisions are take place the faster the reaction |
|
|
How does increase in concentration, pressure and temperature increase the rate of reaction? |
-As the concentration increases the particles become more crowded. This increases the number of collisions between reacting particles
-As the temperature increases, the particles gain kinetic energy and move around more quickly, so collisions between reacting particles are more successful, and also occur in greater number
-Increases impression of force part was closer together, increasing the rate of reaction |
-As the concentration increases the particles come more…
-As the temperature increases the particles gain…
-Increases in pressure forces particles… |

|
What does the rate of reaction depend on? |
Rate of reaction depends on collision frequency: this describes the number of successful collisions between reacting particles each second |
Collision… say what this describes |
|
How can you tell when a reaction is finished on graphs and tables? |
-In a graph the line will be horizontal
-In the table the numbers will stop Changing |

|
|
How can you use graphs and tables to compare the rate of reaction? |
-on graphs, the steeper the line, the faster the reaction
-In a table, the larger the change between readings, the faster the reaction |

Why must factory owners be careful when using combustible powders? |
Because they must ensure that the powders can't reach the open atmosphere and that the chances of the spark being produced need the powders is very small |
They must ensure two things |

In a block of material, where can particle collisions occur? |
They can only occur with the particles on the surface. Most of the particles in the block a trapped on the inside, so they are not available to react |
