1
Collision Theory Collisions needed to provide energy required for a particle to change (i.e. a bond to break) and to bring the reactants into contact
2
Reaction Rate Reaction needs sufficient kinetic energy Minimum energy is activation energy
3
In order to react, particles must… Collide with each other With sufficient energy In the correct geometrical alignment (steric factor)
4
Effect of concentration Increasing the concentration will….. The same effect is seen with pressure for gases
5
Effect of surface area Which will react faster, powder or lumps ? What must be kept the same if we are doing an investigation into this ?
6
Effect of Temperature Why does increasing the temperature increase the rate ?
7
Maxwell- Boltzmann Distribution
8
Maxwell Boltzmann Distribution Activation energy important
9
Effect of catalyst
10
Effect of light Excitation of reactants or breaking of bonds e.g. Silver halides
11
Orientation Geometry of reaction can be important
