7.
Marsha and Nathan measure how fast an antacid tablet reacts in water at 30°C. They repeat the experiment after crushing the tablet. They conclude that the tablet produces gas bubbles much faster when it is crushed. Why does the reaction take less time when the tablet is crushed?
a)
increased surface area of the reactants
b)
decreased volume of the reactants
c)
increased kinetic energy of the reactants
d)
decreased vapor pressure of the reactants
8.
The rate of a reaction depends on many factors such as the concentration of the reactants. Which of the following explains why an increase in the concentration of reactants affects the rate of reaction?
a)
The reactants move faster.
b)
The activation energy is lowered.
c)
There are fewer molecules present.
d)
The collisions increase between the reactants.
9.
The rate at which a reaction occurs depends on the collisions between the molecules in the reactants. Which best describes the result of a temperature increase on the collisions of the molecules?
a)
The molecules are compressed, which decreases the number of collisions.
b)
The number of molecules increases, which increases the frequency of collisions.
c)
The molecules move faster, which increases the energy released by the collisions.
d)
The surface area of the molecules increases, which makes the collisions more effective.
