How does concentraition affect the rate of a chemical reaction?

Usually, increasing concentration of reactants increases the rate of reaction, but increasing concentrations of products reduces the rate of reaction. However, if one reactant is already present in large stoichiometric excess over another, increasing the concentration of that reactant may not increase the rate of reaction at all, and if the free energy of reaction is large enough in magnitude, increasing the concentration of products may not reduce the rate of reaction at all.


When a reaction is at the equilibrium's will increasing pressure favor the reaction that produces more gas?

Not usually. This could only happen if the gas produced were so far from ideal that its production reduces the pressure of the total mixture of reactants and products, a very unlikely occurrence.


What is a protein molecule that acts as a biological catalyst to speed up chemical reactions by lowering the energy of activation?

The presence of catalysts, usually enzymes.


What can speed up an enzyme reaction?

An increase in temperature can increase the enzymatic reactions if it is not too hot and also if the pH is within the idea range it can speed up the reaction. The pH level is usually around 7 for most enzymes.


What effect does the catalyst have on a reaction?

A catalyst works by essentially speeding up the rate of reaction or changing other environmental factors, such as increasing yield. Although this is technically not the mechanism by which catalysts usually work, it's a sufficient idea of how catalysts benefit reactions.

Increased temperature usually leads to an increase in reaction rate because collisions are?

The increase in reaction rate is due to an increase in the number of collisions. This is because an increase of temperature causes an increase in molecular motion.

What is the process of Increasing Term Life Insurance?

Increasing term life insurance will increase in its value over time usually at a rate proportional to inflation. The premiums will increase over time, as well as the overall value of the policy.


Can my company increase work hours without increasing salary?

Your company cannot increase work hours if you are under a contract. They may in some states, be able to alter your job description or function slightly without increasing your salary. There is usually a cap of 40 hours without increasing your salary.


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 an algae bloom?

Algal Bloom is the increasing amount of algae in an aquatic ecosystem.


Why does increasing concentration usually increase reaction rate?

Lncreasing the number of particles in a given volume, means they are more concentrated. Since there are more particles in a given volume it means that they will collide more often with the reacting particles. 'More often' means an increasing rate of reaction.


What are the measures for industrialization?

The term "industrialization" refers to a society's increasing use of machinery, technology and automated processes. With this increase usually comes ecomomic growth.
