Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the effect of a higher concentration of reactants on the rate of a reaction?
  • Step 1: Understand that a reaction involves reactants coming together to form products.
  • Step 2: Know that for a reaction to happen, reactant particles must collide with each other.
  • Step 3: Realize that if there are more reactant particles (higher concentration), there are more chances for collisions.
  • Step 4: Recognize that more collisions usually mean the reaction will happen faster.
  • Step 5: Conclude that a higher concentration of reactants generally increases the rate of the reaction.
