3.3 Rates of Reactions

What affects the rate of a chemical reaction?

Inquiry Question

Overview

  • Conduct a practical investigation, using appropriate tools (including digital technologies), to collect data, analyse and report on how the rate of a chemical reaction can be affected by a range of factors, including but not limited to:
    • Temperature
    • Surface area of reactant(s)
    • Concentration of reactant(s)
    • Catalysts
  • Investigate the role of activation energy, collisions and molecular orientation in collision theory
  • Explain a change in reaction rate using collision theory
