Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What effect does increasing the temperature have on the rate of a chemical reaction?
  • Step 1: Understand that temperature is a measure of how hot or cold something is.
  • Step 2: Know that molecules are tiny particles that make up everything around us.
  • Step 3: Realize that when you increase the temperature, the molecules move faster because they have more energy.
  • Step 4: Remember that chemical reactions happen when molecules collide with each other.
  • Step 5: Understand that faster-moving molecules collide more often and with more energy.
  • Step 6: Conclude that more frequent and energetic collisions lead to a higher rate of reaction.
