What does the area under the curve represent?
Amount of
particles
if temperature gets increased, which direction does the curve shift?
The curve shifts right and the peak is lower
If the temperature decreases which direction does the curve shift?
The curve shift
left
under
the peak is
higher
what happens to the amount of particles with energy higher than the activation energy when the curve shift is right?
Amount of particles with energy
higher
than the activation energy
increases
What happens to the amount of particles with energy higher in the activation energy when the curve shifts left?
Amount
of
particles
decreases
Does the end of the curve ever touch the X axis?
No
how does the end of the curve vary between temperature increases and decreases?
goes
higher
or
lower
but
never
touches
