3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What must reactants do to form products according to collision theory?
Think about what needs to happen for a reaction to begin.
What is activation energy?
Consider it as a barrier that needs to be overcome for a reaction.
What is required for an effective collision to occur?
Think about what makes a collision successful in forming products.
True or False: Activation energy is not important for the rate of reactions.
Can't form products without overcoming a certain energy barrier.
A reaction between hydrogen and oxygen to form water requires specific conditions to proceed. If a catalyst is added to the reaction, explain how this impacts the activation energy and the rate of the reaction. Provide a detailed comparison with the original reaction without the catalyst.
Think about how catalysts change the energy barrier for reactions.
You are studying the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. Explain how adjusting the temperature impacts the rates of reaction and describe in detail using collision theory.
How do temperature changes relate to particle motion and collisions?
