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.

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.


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.


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


Why does the concentration of the enzyme make a difference to how fast the reaction works?

The concentration of the enzyme affects the rate of reaction because enzymes are catalysts that speed up chemical reactions by increasing the frequency of successful collisions between substrates. Higher enzyme concentrations mean more enzymes are available to convert substrate molecules, leading to a faster overall reaction rate. Once all substrate molecules are bound to enzymes, further increases in enzyme concentration will not speed up the reaction.


According to the collision theory what are the two ways to make a reaction go faster?

To make a reaction go faster according to the collision theory, you can either increase the frequency of collisions between reactant particles by raising the temperature or increasing the concentration of reactants, or increase the energy of collisions by raising the temperature of the reaction.


Do enzymes always make reactions move forward?

Enzymes can lower the activation energy required for a reaction to occur, making the reaction proceed faster, but they do not affect the equilibrium of the reaction. Enzymes can facilitate both forward and reverse reactions depending on the conditions and the concentration of the reactants and products.

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.


What chemicals make a glow stick glow longer?

To make a glow stick glow longer, you can use chemicals that slow down the rate of the chemical reaction that produces the light. One way to do this is by using a higher concentration of hydrogen peroxide or a lower concentration of the dye in the glow stick solution. This can help make the glow stick last longer before the reaction is fully used up.


How do chemical manufacturers make the reaction continue to make ammonia once the reaction has reached equilibrium?

Manufacturers can shift the equilibrium of the reaction towards ammonia by continuously removing ammonia as it is formed or by adding more reactants to drive the reaction forward. This process helps maintain a higher concentration of ammonia and promote the reaction's progress.


How does the difference in concentration of saltwater affect the oxidation of a metal?

What is meant by the rate of reaction?

The how much speed it takes for two substances to make one product. Many factors can affect this including the temperature, the surface area, the concentration, the catalyst and the pressure (only applies for gases)
