1.

1. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about catalysts?

a)

A catalyst is a substance that can be added to a reaction to increase the reaction rate without getting consumed in the process.

b)

Catalysts typically speed up a reaction by reducing the activation energy     or changing the reaction mechanism.

c)

Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts in biochemical reactions.

d)

None of these

2.

a)

Activation energy

b)

Kinetic energy

c)

Potential energy

d)

Stored energy

4.

5.

Which of the following is NOT A FACTOR that affects the reaction rates?

a)

Reactant concentration

b)

Catalysts

c)

Particle size

d)

Shape of particles

6.

How does increasing the concentration affect a reaction rate?

a)

makes it go faster (increases rate)

b)

makes it go slower (decreases rate)

7.

Which of the following increases a reaction rate without being used up?

a)

Product

b)

Reactant

c)

Catalyst

8.

Increasing the temperature will increase the kinetic energy of particles, therefore increasing the frequency of the collisions among particles.

a)

TRUE

b)

FALSE

9.

If solution A is put into an ice water bath before being combined with solution B, how would the reaction rate be altered?

a)

it would be faster (rate increases)

b)

it would be slower (rate decreases)

10.

Which of the following best describes the Collision Theory?

a)

reactants must collide, collide with proper orientation, and enough activation energy

b)

products must collide, collide with proper orientation, and enough activation energy

c)

the activated complex must collide, collide with proper orientation, and enough activation energy

d)

reactants and products together must collide, collide with proper orientation, and enough activation energy
