Lesson 3 c) Rates of reaction c) Rates of reaction 4.17 describe experiments to investigate the effects of changes in surface area of a solid, concentration of solutions, temperature and the use of a catalyst on the rate of a reaction 4.18 describe the effects of changes in surface area of a solid, concentration of solutions, pressure of gases, temperature and the use of a catalyst on the rate of a reaction 4.19 understand the term activation energy and represent it on a reaction profile 4.20 explain the effects of changes in surface area of a solid, concentration of solutions, pressure of gases and temperature on the rate of a reaction in terms of particle collision theory 4.21 explain that a catalyst speeds up a reaction by providing an alternative pathway with lower activation energy.
Rates of Reaction The rate of reaction is the rate at which products are formed, or the rate at which reactions are used up, in a reaction.
Rates of Reaction Chemical reactions will only occur when the reacting particles collide with each other with sufficient energy so they react.
Rates of Reaction Chemical reactions will only occur when the reacting particles collide with each other with sufficient energy so they react. The ACTIVATION ENERGY is the minimum amount of energy required to cause the reaction to happen.
Rates of Reaction Chemical reactions will only occur when the reacting particles collide with each other with sufficient energy so they react. The ACTIVATION ENERGY is the minimum amount of energy required to cause the reaction to happen. There are FIVE very important factors which can affect the rate of reaction.
Rates of Reaction Let’s not forget here a little dose of kinetic theory

Rates of Reaction Do you remember the five factors that can affect the rate of chemical reactions?
Rates of Reaction Let’s now consider each one of these factors in turn
Rates of Reaction 1. Temperature of the Reactants
Rates of Reaction 1. Temperature of the Reactants Low temperature Cold conditions, particles have little energy, move slowly and collide infrequently and less successfully
Rates of Reaction 1. Temperature of the Reactants Low temperature High temperature HEAT Cold conditions, particles have little energy, move slowly and collide infrequently and less successfully When heated, particles have more energy, move faster, collide frequently and more successfully
Rates of Reaction 1. Temperature of the Reactants Low temperature High temperature Raising the temperature = particles move faster and collide frequently, collisions are successful and so the rate of reaction increases! HEAT Cold conditions, particles have little energy, move slowly and collide infrequently and less successfully When heated, particles have more energy, move faster, collide frequently and more successfully
Rates of Reaction 2. Concentration of the Dissolved Reactants
Rates of Reaction 2. Concentration of the Dissolved Reactants Low concentration Particles are spread out and will collide with each other less often, with fewer successful collisions
Rates of Reaction 2. Concentration of the Dissolved Reactants Low concentration High concentration Particles are spread out and will collide with each other less often, with fewer successful collisions Particles are crowded close together, so collide more often, with more successful collisions
Rates of Reaction 2. Concentration of the Dissolved Reactants Low concentration High concentration Increasing the concentration = particles are more crowded together and collide frequently, collisions are successful and so the rate of reaction increases! Particles are spread out and will collide with each other less often, with fewer successful collisions Particles are crowded close together, so collide more often, with more successful collisions
Rates of Reaction 3. Pressure (in gases)
Rates of Reaction 3. Pressure (in gases) Low pressure Particles are spread out and will collide with each other less often, with fewer successful collisions
Rates of Reaction 3. Pressure (in gases) Low pressure High pressure Particles are spread out and will collide with each other less often, with fewer successful collisions Particles are pushed closer together, they collide more frequently, with more successful collisions
Rates of Reaction 3. Pressure (in gases) Low pressure High pressure Increasing the pressure = particles in a gas are pushed closer together and collide frequently, collisions are successful and so the rate of reaction increases! Particles are spread out and will collide with each other less often, with fewer successful collisions Particles are pushed closer together, they collide more frequently, with more successful collisions
Rates of Reaction 4. Surface area of solid reactants
Rates of Reaction 4. Surface area of solid reactants Small surface area Large particles have a small surface area in relation to volume – less particles exposed, fewer collisions, slow reaction
Rates of Reaction 4. Surface area of solid reactants Large surface area Small surface area Large particles have a small surface area in relation to volume – less particles exposed, fewer collisions, slow reaction Smaller particles have a larger surface area in relation to volume- more particles exposed, more collisions, faster reaction
Rates of Reaction 4. Surface area of solid reactants Large surface area Small surface area Reducing the particle size and so increasing the relative surface area means that there are more successful collisions and a faster rate of reaction. Large particles have a small surface area in relation to volume – less particles exposed, fewer collisions, slow reaction Smaller particles have a larger surface area in relation to volume- more particles exposed, more collisions, faster reaction
Rates of Reaction 5. Using a catalyst
Rates of Reaction 5. Using a catalyst A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being used up itself. It can be used over and over again.

Rates of Reaction 5. Using a catalyst A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being used up itself. It can be used over and over again. A catalyst lowers the activation energy – the amount of energy needed for a successful collision. There are more collisions, and so a faster reaction.
