Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What effect does increasing temperature have on the rate of a chemical reaction? (2023)
  • Step 1: Understand that temperature is a measure of how hot or cold something is.
  • Step 2: Know that when temperature increases, the particles in a substance move faster.
  • Step 3: Realize that faster-moving particles collide with each other more often.
  • Step 4: Recognize that more collisions between particles can lead to more chemical reactions.
  • Step 5: Conclude that increasing temperature usually makes chemical reactions happen faster.
