Lesson 4 - Factors Affecting The ROR
Lesson 4 - Factors Affecting The ROR
Rate of reaction =
3.Which state of matter has highest energy: solids, liquids or gases? (1) Gases
Catalyst increases the rate of reaction by providing an alternative pathway by
4.What is a catalyst? (3) lowering the activation energy
2) Surface area
“As the surface area increases, the rate of reaction
____________
increases because particles _______
collide more often
with activation energy causing a ________
successful collision”
Task 2: Write a statement for
What affects a rate of reaction?
each factor
using the first example.
1) Concentration
“As the concentration of reactants increases, the rate of
reaction increases because particles collide more often
with activation energy causing a successful collision”
4) Temperature
increases the rate of
“As the temperature _________,
increases because particles gain more
reaction ________
________,
energy colliding more often with activation
successful collision”
energy causing a ____________
