Which of the following explains why an increase in the concentration of reactants affects the rate of reaction? O The reactants move faster. There are fewer molecules present. O The activation energy is lowered. The collisions increase between the reactants.

The half-life of a chemical reaction is the time it takes for half the present reactants to be used up when a reaction has reached the half-way point when only half of the reactant is used the time passed when a reaction is half over
Generally, increasing the temperature increases the rate of a reaction. This is because: O increasing the temperature increases the frequency of collisions O increasing the temperature increases the average energy of the collisions and increases the frequency of collisions O increasing the temperature lowers the activation energy of the reaction increasing the temperature increases the average energy of the collisions.

40. The reaction that produces ammonia is represented by a balanced equation, shown below. A catalyst can be used to increase the rate of the reaction. N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g) + energy A potential energy diagram for the reaction is shown below. C A Reaction Coordinate What occurs when a catalyst is added to a chemical reaction? A. an alternate reaction pathway lowers activation energy, changing the magnitude of both B and C B. new reactants are added which increases their potential energy, changing the magnitude of both A and D C. different products are produced with a lower potential energy, changing the magnitude of both A and B D. the temperature is increased so there are more effective collisions, which changes the magnitude of A and C
