1
New cards
peak
represents most likely energy of any molecule - more molecules with this energy than with any other energy
2
New cards
area under graph
total number of molecules
3
New cards
molecule energies
average energy to the right of peak
tail of graph is asymptotic to x-axis - small possibility of a very high energy molecule
tail of graph is asymptotic to x-axis - small possibility of a very high energy molecule
4
New cards
activation energies
left side of activation energy mark - molecules have less energy so they can’t react
right sdie - molecules have more energy so they can react
right sdie - molecules have more energy so they can react
5
New cards
temperature
area under graph remains the same
increases average energy of molecules - maximum moves to the right of original - lowers no of particles with that energy - shorter peak
increases average energy of molecules - maximum moves to the right of original - lowers no of particles with that energy - shorter peak
