Rate of Reaction (Chemistry AQA)

?
How can you find out the mean rate of reaction
Mean rate of reaction = Quantity of reactant used ÷ Time or Quantity of product formed ÷ Time
1 of 7
How do you find the rate of reaction from a the gradient
1. Select the time at which you want to measure the rate. 2.With a ruler draw a tangent to the curve at that point 3.Choose two points and label the co-ordinates 4.Find the gradient by divinding the change in the y axis by the change of the x axis
2 of 7
Factors affecting rate of reaction
Temperature, Concentrarion of reactants, Pressure of gas, Surface area
3 of 7
What is a catalyst
A catalyst is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction.
4 of 7
Give an example of catalysts being used
1.Iron in the production of ammonia 2.Platinum in catalytic convertors
5 of 7
What is a reversable reaction
The products that have been made from the reactants can be turned back into the reactants
6 of 7
What happens to the energy in reversable reactions
If a reversible reaction is exothermic in one direction then it will be endothermic in the oher direction. The amount of energy transferred will be the same in each reaction
