Rate of Reaction: Key Factors of Rate of Reaction 💥 GCSE Chemistry Learning & Revision
Manage episode 486916098 series 3139602
In this episode, we discuss the key factors of rate of reaction.
Several key factors influence how quickly chemical reactions proceed.
Primarily, a higher concentration or pressure of reactants leads to more frequent collisions between particles, thereby accelerating the reaction rate.
Similarly, increasing the surface area of solid reactants enhances the number of exposed particles available for reaction, resulting in a faster process.
Furthermore, elevated temperatures provide reactant particles with more energy, causing more frequent and effective collisions that overcome the activation energy barrier.
Finally, catalysts are substances that speed up reactions without being consumed by lowering the activation energy required.
