Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the effect of increasing the concentration of reactants on the rate of a reaction?
  • Step 1: Understand that a reaction involves reactants that combine to form products.
  • Step 2: Recognize that concentration refers to how much of a substance is present in a given volume.
  • Step 3: Realize that when you increase the concentration of reactants, there are more particles available to collide with each other.
  • Step 4: Know that more collisions between reactant particles can lead to more reactions occurring.
  • Step 5: Conclude that because there are more collisions, the rate of the reaction generally increases.
