Addition of a catalyst to a reaction lowers the activation energy of at least one step in the reaction
How does the presence of a catalyst influence the rate of a chemical reaction, and what is the underlying mechanism behind this phenomenon?
The rate of a reaction is how quickly the reaction goes to completion. If two reactions have the same amount of reactant, increasing the rate does not increase the amount of product produced, it simply reduces the time that it takes to make the product. Using the internet , research the four factors below that affect the rate of a chemical reaction. 1. Reactant concentration ( explained with details and add graphs to explain what you wrote for each one of them) 2. pressure ( explained with details and add graphs to explain what you wrote for each one of them) 3. Temperature ( explained with details and add graphs to explain what you wrote for each one of them) 4. Presence of a catalyst. ( explained with details and add graphs to explain what you wrote for each one of them) Your work should be written in complete sentences, and assume your audience is grade 11 chemistry students who do not understand this unit. Make sure all research is put into your own words!
What does it mean for a reaction to release energy? The relative potential energy of the reaction is negative. The activation energy of the reaction is positive. The relative potential energy of the reaction is positive. The activation energy of the reaction is negative.
Which of these are factors that impact rate of reaction? temperature reactant concentration presence of a catalyst O reactant particle size

Determine whether the following aspects of a reaction are increased, decreased, or unaffected by the addition of a catalyst. •rate of the forward reaction •rate of the reverse reaction •activation energy of the forward reaction •activation energy of the reverse reaction •the enthalpy of the reaction
What is the difference between exergonic and exothermic? What is the difference between intermediate and transition state? What is the relation between activation energy and the rate of a reaction?
Which of the following is true? Decreasing the activation energy decreases the reaction rate. Decreasing the activation energy increases the reaction rate. The activation energy of an exothermic reaction is negative. There is no relationship between activation energy and reaction rate.
