b)

Collision Theory

c)

2.

Which of the following is NOT a key concept of the collision theory?

a)

particles must collide in order to react

b)

particles must collide with sufficient energy to react

c)

particles must move slowly when they collide, otherwise they simply “bounce off” one another

All colliding particles have the same amount of energy

b)

Only fast-moving particles collide with each other

c)

Particles do not need to collide before they react

d)

Reactions can happen if the colliding particles have enough energy

4.

How does a catalyst work?

a)

by decreasing the activation energy of a reaction

b)

by the decreasing the pressure of a chemical reaction

c)

by increasing the temperature of a chemical reaction

d)

by increasing the concentration of reactants in a reaction

5.

A catalyst increases the rate of a reaction by

a)

increasing the concentration of the reactants

b)

increasing the activation energy of the overall reaction

c)

decreasing the concentration of the reactant

d)

decreasing the activation energy of the overall reaction

6.

If the reactant particles collide with LESS THAN the activation energy, the particles bounce back, and NO REACTION will occur.

a)

True

b)

False

7.

Raising the temperature of the reaction increases the rate of the reaction by increasing the energy of the collisions between reacting particles.

a)

True

b)

False

8.

Increasing the surface area of the reactant, increases the rate of the reaction.

a)

True

b)

False

9.

By finding out how fast products are made and what causes reactions to slow down we can develop methods to improve production.

a)

True

b)

False

10.

The rate of reaction dictates the rate of production of our daily products. In order to meet the demand and safety standards, optimization of rate of reaction is nonetheless the most important subject to control and study.

a)

True

b)

False

11.

a)

True

b)

False

12.

What is the rate of reaction?

a)

How much energy is needed for a reaction to occur.

b)

The time it takes for a reaction to occur.

c)

The energy required to break a bond.

d)

Collision Theory

13.

What factors effect rate of reaction?

a)

Temperature, Concentration, Pressure and Energy

b)

Surface Area, Concentration, Energy and Pressure

c)

Temperature, Pressure, Concentration and Surface area

d)

Pressure, Surface Area, Particle Size and Energy

14.

15.

Increasing the temperature of your solution will...

a)

Not affect the rate of reaction

b)

23.

Which of the following statements is correct about the effect of particle size or surface are on the reaction rate? (Statement A): large pieces of iron react more quickly with acids than they do with finely divided iron powder. (Statement B) If you hold a match up against a large log in an attempt to start the log burning, you will find it to be an unsuccessful effort since it will not cause enough reactions to occur in order to keep the fire going that is why it is common to break a log up into many small, thin sticks
