usually adding a catalyst will help to speed up the reaction so look up what kind of catalyst will speed up your reaction.
you can also raise the temperature or increase the amount of the reactants
Lowering the activation energy, adding a catalyst and shaking the reactants can help make a chemical reaction go faster.

- breaking a solid into something smaller (to increase its surface area)
- make the solution more concentrated,
- increase the temperature.
Other methods for increasing the rate of reaction are incrasing the pressure and adding a catalyst.

Further more: mixing and grinding for solid state reactions, higher concentrations (in 'non-zero' order reactions) and higher pressure in gas reaction. At last: more reactant and removing product might help in some cases.

∙ 14y agoYou heat up the process, this is because particles can only react when they collide. If you heat a substance, the particles move faster and so collide more frequently. That will speed up the rate of reaction. You may also use a catalyst. In cases where the reaction is an equilibria reaction, adding reactant or removing product will drive the reaction forward according to Le Chatelier's principle.

You could also increase the concentration of the reactants, and in some cases (for example, equilibria) removing one or more of the products can help (actually this doesn't speed up the reaction per se, but it can help drive it in the preferred direction, so the net result is that you get more product, not faster: The reversed reaction is slowed down by lack of reacting product(s) ).

What makes chemical reaction to go faster?
cofee or nos or an energy drink would speed up a chemical reaction..
What do catalysts do to the activation energy of a chemical reaction?
A chemical catalyst is a substance that lowers the required activation energy of a reaction. The activation energy is the amount of energy required to "activate" or start a process, this can be in the form of many things, such as heat. A chemical catalyst can be seen as a kind of shortcut in a chemical process to speed things up. A catalyst can also be used to increase the activation energy, so that the reaction will slow down. This is useful for slowing down reactions that are normally too fast to witness.
What happens when a compound undergoes a chemical reaction?
When a compound undergoes a chemical reaction, it is forever altered. It can never go back to the way it was before the reaction took place.
Is grass growing a chemical reaction?
Grass growth is not a chemical reaction but a chemical change because the grass will not go back to its original form after it grows. Like chemical change, a certain object will not go back or reverse it from its original appearance.
A reaction that can be made to go either direction from reactants to products or from products to reactants is called an?
Chemical Reaction
Something that helps a chemical reaction go faster is?
It depends on the chemical reating to the source, if it has a major reaction to water it will go faster.
How does a cytalyst make a reaction go faster?
Answer this question...plz
Is used to lower the energy required to make a reaction take place It makes chemical reactions go faster without being consumed?
A catalyst
Will adding more acid make a reaction faster?
If you add a higher concentration of acid, or increase the temperature, the reaction will go faster.
What is normal human reaction time?
the measure of how fast products are made in a reaction
What makes chemical reaction to go faster?

How do enzymes make reactions occur faster?
enzymes are biological catalysts. a catalyst is a chemical that increases the rate of a reaction and itself is not changed at the end of the reaction and does not change the nature of the reaction or its final result. catalysts make reactions go faster at lower temperatures by lowering the activation temperature required , thus ensuring that a larger percent of the population of reactant molecules will have sufficient energy to participate in the reaction.

How do you control a chemical reaction?
Through temperature, concentration, surface area, and the use of catalists. Temperature - most reaction go faster with a higher temperature (not always the case) So you raise or lower the temperature to control the speed. Concentration - this can be calculated. The higher the concentration the faster the outcome and the more product you get. Catalists will always make it faster. More catalist, fater reaction. Surface Area-The more surface area, the faster the reaction. for example, if you break up an antacid tablet (alka seltzer) it will dissolve faster than a whole one because it has more surface area
What happens when a chemical change does not go through completion?
The chemical reaction is interrupted.
Can a catalyst have any effect on the reaction rate?
Yes,catalysts help the reaction go faster.
What is the effect on the rate of a chemical reaction when the concnetration of a reactant is decreased?
When the concentration of the reactant is decreased, the rate of chemical reaction go slow.
