Title: Surface Area vs. Rate of Reaction Research question: How can different temperatures affect the rate of reaction‚ when the reactant is in powder form? Hypothesis: If the temperature of the water is increased‚ the rate of reaction will also increase as the heat given off to the particles will increase leading to more movement and frequent collisions. Background information: Chemical reactions occur when two or more molecules interact with each other‚ but that can only occur when they

reached when opposing reactions- forward and reverse reactions- occur at the same rate. This means that the rate at which the reaction forms the products is equal to the rate at which the reaction forms the reactants (Lemay et al‚ 2012). In this dynamic state‚ there is continuous formation of reactant and products (Committee on General Chemistry‚ 2012‚ p. 76). This principle is

to form new ones at the moment of impact with other reactants. The very minimum amount of energy needed for this process to occur is referred to as activation energy. Collision theory explains why reaction rates differ for alternate reactions and also how chemical reactions occur in the first place. During a reaction‚ collision theory states that the higher the concentration of the reactants‚ the faster the rate of the reaction. More reactants leads to more effective collisions between the particles

There is an inlet stream(s) that bring all of the reactants in at a particular rate. This stream(s) dumps into a large container; there is a shaft with a blade attached (stirrer) in the reactor that rotates around to mix the reactants. Finally there is an outlet stream‚ which the solution will exit from the reactor. The rates of the

The Reactants going into the process are Glucose‚ NAD+ (and ATP to start the reaction). The products are 2 pyruvic acid molecules NADH and a net gain of 2 ATP (2 used 4 produced). This reaction occurs in the cytoplasm and is also considered the first step in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration. What is the role of the citric acid cycle? Include the reactants and

that influences the rate of reaction ‚ namely total surface area. The reaction rate (rate of reaction) or speed of reaction for a reactant or product in a particular reaction is defined as how fast or slow a reaction takes place. As the surface area of the reactants increases‚ the reaction rate increases. This is because increasing the surface area of the reactants results in a higher number of reaction sites. Increasing the number of reaction sites increases the number of total collisions. The

As reactants are transformed into products in a chemical reaction‚ the amount of reactants will decrease and the amount of products will increase. The rate of the reaction can be determined by measuring the amounts or concentrations of reactants or products as a function of time. In some cases‚ it is possible to use a simple visual clue to determine a reaction rate. Some of

chemistry is a catalyst which facilitates the migration of a reactant in a heterogeneous system from one phase into another phase where reaction can take place. Ionic reactants are often soluble in an aqueous phase but insoluble in an organic phase unless the phase transfer catalyst is present. Phase transfer catalysis (also PTC) refers to the acceleration of the reaction by the phase transfer catalyst. Phase transfer catalysts for anion reactants are often quaternary ammonium salts.
