Unit 3 Lesson 3

A reaction requires a very high temperature in order to be carried out. The high temperatures are not safe and could damage equipment. Which description is a possible solution to this need?

• insulate the outside of the container for the reaction

• insulate the inside of the container for the reaction

• perform the reaction at a higher pressure so the temperature can be lowered

• perform the reaction at a lower pressure so that the temperature can be lowered

Which of these is an example of a reaction that absorbs energy?

• A cake baking

• A candle burning

• A firework exploding

• A piece of wood smoldering

Which can happen when energy is transferred from one system to another?

• new energy is created

• some energy is destroyed

• the energy changes form

• the energy changes into mass

Why does increasing temperature generally increase the rate of a chemical reaction?

• It increases the amount of reactant

• It decreases the size of the reactant particles

• It causes the particles of the reactants to move faster and collide more often

• It increases the space between reactant particles so they have more room to move apart
