Rate of Chemical Reactions

Question 1 • AA-F26 Physical Science

What factors could be used to increase reaction rate? Check all that apply.using an inhibitorusing a catalystincreasing temperatureincreasing pressuredecreasing concentration

Answer
A
using an inhibitor
B
using a catalyst
C
increasing temperature
D
increasing pressure
E
decreasing concentration

Explanation

A catalyst provides a pathway with lower activation energy, and increasing temperature makes particles move faster and collide more effectively. Increasing pressure can increase the rate of a reaction involving gases by crowding gas particles together and increasing collisions. An inhibitor and decreasing concentration generally slow reactions.
