How does a catalyst work in speeding up a reaction?

• By lowering the activation energy or reaction

• by giving them more energy

• by making them more available

The rate of a chemical reaction is NOT affected by which of the following:

• temperature
• concentration
• particle size (surface area)
• All of these affect reaction rates

The rate of a reaction increases as temperature__________________.

• Decreases
• Increases
• Stays the Same

Products will form faster if____________

• the particle size of the reactants are larger.
• temperature is decreased.
• concentration of the reactants are increased.
• the reaction is not stirred.

A ______________ is a substance that increases the rate of a reaction without being used up during the reaction. 

• catalyst
• product
• reactant
• solute

The ___________ the surface area of the reactants, the faster the reaction rate.

• larger 
• smaller

Smaller particle size allows for a _________ surface area to be exposed for the reaction.

• larger
• smaller

Increasing the temperature will increase the kinetic energy of particles, therefore increasing the collisions between particles.

• false
• true
