Why cant you lit a match after it is already have been lit?
Because the process of producing the flame is a chemical reaction. The reaction can only exist if there are unused chemicals to fuel the change. Once all the chemicals are used up - the reaction stops.
Why are catalysts used in industrial process?
Catalyst are used to speed up a chemical reaction. They participate in a chemical or biochemical reactions and function in lowering the activation energy. They are not consumed by this so they can be reused. Biocatalyst are known as enzymes.
The role of catalyst in chemical reaction?
A catalyst speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction.
What does a catalyst do to the rate of a chemical reaction?
A catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction without changing the substance. It does this by reducing the minimal reaction energy. A catalyst is not used up in a reaction therefore they last indefinitely.
What is an example of a chemical change when the starting material is used up?
An example of a chemical change where the starting material is used up is the combustion of a piece of paper. When paper is burned, it undergoes a chemical reaction with oxygen in the air, resulting in the production of carbon dioxide, water vapor, and ash. Once all the paper has been completely burned, it is consumed and no longer present.
What happens to the reaction as a reactant gets used up?
It slows and then stops.
Does vinegar and baking soda create a big chemical reaction?
it makes a chemical reaction but not a big one. it just bubbles up and then stops.
Why cant you lit a match after it is already have been lit?
Because the process of producing the flame is a chemical reaction. The reaction can only exist if there are unused chemicals to fuel the change. Once all the chemicals are used up - the reaction stops.
Is it true that Enzymes are not consumed during a chemical reaction?
Correct. Enzymes help to speed up chemical reactions. They may speed them up, costing them some energy, but they are never used up.
Element used to speed up chemical reactions?
Anything that is added to a chemical reaction that's intended to speed up the reaction - is a catalyst.
Can function to speed up chemical reactions?
A catalyst functions to speed up a chemical reaction without being used up in the reaction, meaning that a catalyst can be used more than once.
Why are catalysts used in industrial process?
Catalyst are used to speed up a chemical reaction. They participate in a chemical or biochemical reactions and function in lowering the activation energy. They are not consumed by this so they can be reused. Biocatalyst are known as enzymes.
What can a chemical reaction be speeded up by?
A catalyst can speed up a chemical reaction.
What happens to the reaction rate as the reaction gets used up?
The reaction rate depends on the order of the reaction. In general (except for zero order), as the reaction progresses, the rate decreases with time.
What do enzymes to do a chemical reaction?
Enzymes are catalysts in a chemical reaction, they are used in chemistry to increase the speed of a specific chemical reaction. A single enzyme will not speed up multiple chemical reactions, usually it is limited to one reactant.
What is chemical reaction in an enzyme?
to speed up a chemical reaction
What can speed up a chemical reaction by decreasing?
chemical reaction
