increasing temperatures ________ collision rate
increases bc it allows for more particles to reach the activation energy threshold
breaking particles into smaller pieces ______ collision rate
increases bc it increases surface area
what do catalysts do?
provide a different reaction path that lowers the required activation energy
increasing molecularity _______ collision rates
decreases bc it makes it harder to get the perfect collision
endothermic
products are at higher energy level than reactants uphill is endo
exothermic
products are at lower energy level than reactants downhill is exo
which step in the mechanism has the highest activation energy?
slow step
what order is this graph?
zero order

initial concentration/2^x = leftover concentration
what order is this graph?
first order
what order is this graph?
second order
what order is this graph?
zero order
what order is this graph?
first order
what order is this graph?

what does the Arrhenius equation reveal?
K increases with increasing temperature K decreases with increasing activation energy
zero order equation
[A]t – [A]0 = -kt
first order equation
ln[A]t – ln[A]0 = -kt
second order equation
1/[A]t – 1/[A]0 = kt
