Which of the following statements is false. Catalysts make a reaction rate go faster by providing a different route for the same reaction to proceed that requires less input energy. Increasing the concentration increases the rate of a reaction because more molecules are available in the same amount of space leading to more collisions with the correct orientation. Adding energy increases the rate of a reaction because more collisions happen with enough energy to break the bonds. Increasing the pressure by adding an inert gas increases the rate of reaction by causing more collisions.

A catalyst increases the rate of reaction by providing an alternative reaction pathway with a higher activation energy. True ⒸFalse
Kinetics is the study of reaction rates (i.e. how fast or slow a reaction proceeds). Describe 3 ways that the rate of a reaction could be increased.
Which of these are factors that impact rate of reaction? temperature reactant concentration presence of a catalyst O reactant particle size
2. A catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction but is not consumed by the reaction. A catalyst works by lowering the activation energy for a reaction, making it easier for reactants to form products. What effect, if any, would a catalyst have on a system already at equilibrium? Briefly explain.
Restate the collision theory in your own words. Apply the concepts of collision theory to determine if the rate of reaction between zinc metal and hydrochloric acid will either increase or decrease under the following conditions: Decreasing the temperature of the hydrochloric acid Increasing the concentration of the hydrochloric acid Adding a catalyst to the reaction
How does adding a catalyst affect the rate of a chemical reaction? Has no effect on the rate of a reaction Decreases the reaction rate since there will be less reactants to from products quickly. Decreases the rate of reaction because the reactants molecules have lower kinetic energy limiting collisions Increases the rate of reaction by lowering the activation energy of the reaction without being used up in the reaction
Catalysts speed up the rate of a reaction by increasing the activation energy Select one: O True O False
In a chemical reaction, why don't all collisions between reacting molecules result in product formation?
the rate of a reaction with a catalyst present is faster than without a catalyst present true or false?
Factors that affect the rate of reaction •What are some ways we can increase the speed of a reaction? •And how do these reasoms relate to collision theory?
What does a catalyst do to speed the reaction rate? It increases the concentration of the reactants. It lowers the activation energy. O It increases the kinetic energy of the reactants. It increases the temperature of the reaction. O It increases the number of collisions between the reactants.
