Which statements correctly describes a system in chemical equilibrium?

There are statements that correctly describe a system in chemical equilibrium and help to determine the conditions of a chemical reaction in equilibrium. Chemical equilibrium is said to be in dynamic meaning that the state is not permanent but can be altered with time when conditions like temperature, Pressure called external constraints changes. First, we…

What is collision theory of reaction rate?

Collision theory is a theory that governs the rate of reaction and states that there must be collisions before reaction will occur. There is a need to understand that no reaction will occur until there is collisions between reactant particles and only the effective collisions lead to the formation of products. How does collision theory…

What is the effect of Temperature on rate of reaction?

The effect of Temperature on rate of reaction increases the average kinetic. of particles and thus increasing the frequency of collision and consequently rates of reactions. Temperature is a major factor that affects rates of reaction by affecting two different parameters which are frequency of collisions and average kinetic of particles. I will talk about…

How does concentration affect rate of reaction?

The rate of reaction increases as the concentration of reactant particles increases by increasing the frequency of collisions.. Concentration is one of the factors that affect rates of reaction and there is a sequence on how concentration affects rates of reaction. We have established before that there are about six factors that affect rates of…

Which Factors will increase rates of Chemical reaction?

There is a need to improve the rate of a very slow reactions but we need to understand that there are several factors that do alter the rates of reactions. The rates of reaction is very affected  by about six factors like Temperature, Pressure, Concentration , Surface area, Effect of catalyst and presence of light….

How are the following aspects of a reaction affected by the addition of a catalyst?

Some chemical reactions are usually catalyzed and actually some reaction will occur very slowly without the addition of a catalyst. The addition of a catalyst to a chemical reaction do only one thing, it speeds up the rates of chemical reactions but by reducing the activation energy. Chemical reactions can be catalyzed to occur faster…
