What is a catalyst and what does it do
It speeds up a reaction by lowering the activation energy by providing an alternate pathway. (Not used up)
What is the activation energy?
The minimum energy required for a reaction to take place
Why does a MB curve never touch the x axis?
There is always a probability that a molecule will have really high energy
What is the highest peak of a MB curve called?
The most probable energy
Y axis and x axis of a MB curve
Y= number of molecules
X= kinetic energy
Why does a MB curve not start at the origin 0,0?
No molecules have 0 kinetic energy
What happens to a MB curve when temperature increases?
It shifts to the right
