O Reaction rates always increase as masses of solid reactants increase. The higher the rate of a reaction the longer it takes to reach completion. A balanced chemical reaction is necessary to relate the rate of reaction to the concentration of a reactant. O Reaction rate constants decrease with increasing temperature. O Catalysts increase reaction rates. Reaction rates decrease with increasing temperature.
