When the concentration of a solution increases, the particles are moving quicker as they have more energy. This results in more collisions between the substrate and the solution, thus resulting in an increased rate of reaction.
Even if the particles are moving at the same speed, with a higher concentration, there is a higher probability of colliding with another reactant molecule rather than a solvent molecule.

Why does increasing the concentration of a reactants increase the reaction rate?
Because it increases the probability of collisions
What factors change the rate of chemical reaction?
Adding a catalyst to the process will make the chemical reaction go faster. Also, the temperation, concentration, state of matter and pressure will affect the rate of the chemical reaction.
Why must the acid be warmed in salt preparation?
to make faster reaction ! i think
What make osmosis and diffusion the same?
Molecules travel across the cell membrane from a higher concentration to a lower concentration during both osmosis and diffusion. Diffusion is when molecules move across the cells' membrane from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Osmosis is the diffusion of water.
How will decreasing reactant concentration affect the reaction rate?
Decreasing the reactant concentration will slow the rate of the reaction. If you use the idea of adding oxygen and hydrogen to make water and decease the amount of one, you will produce less water. It doesn't matter which reactant is less as there are just are not enough to go around.
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.
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
Would a higher enzymes concentration make the reaction faster or slower?
Increased enzymes would increase the rate of the reaction up to a certain point. They would reach a point where there are no more reactions to help out.
Why does the concentration of the enzyme make a difference to how fast the reaction works?
What must be true of the concentration of acids and bases with a reaction in order to make salt and water product?
This is a neutralization reaction.
Why does increasing the concentration of a reactants increase the reaction rate?
Because it increases the probability of collisions

How does the difference in concentration of saltwater affect the oxidation of a metal?
The more saltwter will make it rust faster.

What enzymes in saliva help our bodies break down food faster. A substance that make reactions happen faster is called?
The enzyme in saliva is amylase.A catalyst make a reaction happen faster.
