  • What happens to the rate of chemical reactions over time?
    They are rapid initially, then slow down
  • What does collision theory state?
    Reactions occur when particles collide with energy
  • How does the frequency of successful collisions affect reaction rates?
    Higher frequency increases the reaction rate
  • Why do reactions slow down over time?
    Reactant molecules are running out
  • What happens when all reactant molecules have run out?
    The reaction stops completely
  • What is the effect of concentration on reaction rate?
    Higher concentration increases the rate of reaction
  • If one container has twice the number of particles, what happens to the reaction rate?
    The reaction rate doubles
  • How does the number of collisions per second relate to reaction rate?
    More collisions per second increase the rate
  • What does a steeper line on a product graph indicate?
    A faster reaction rate
