temperature

• what does increasing temperature do to the rate of reaction?


  it increases it
• what happens when you warm a chemical?

  it transfers kinetic energy to the chemical's particles
• what does more kinetic energy mean?

  • particles faster - collisions more frequent
  • increased energy of particles means more successful collisions
• what happens when you increase the temperature?

  • the kinetic energy increases
  • the frequency of collisions increases
  • the proportion of successful high energy collision increases
