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.

How does temperature affects the order of a reaction?

An increase in temperature usually increases the rate of a reaction by providing more kinetic energy to the reactant molecules, which leads to more frequent and energetic collisions. This can often decrease the order of the reaction because the rate constant (k) usually increases with temperature, making the reaction appear to proceed faster and with a lower order.


Increasing what speeds up most chemical reactions?

That would depend highly on the type of chemical reaction. Usually increasing the speed of the molecules by heating, stirring, etc has some effect. However, not all reactions are benefited by this. An example is the formation of carbonic acid. A solution of weak carbonic acid is formed by dissolving carbon dioxide gas in water. Warmer water is incapable of dissolving as much carbon dioxide as cold water and stirring/agitating the water only speeds up the loss of carbon dioxide. Increasing the concentration of reactants usually has good effect, but can be dangerous. Be sure of any reaction BEFORE preforming it.


A chemical reaction in which bonds are broken is usually associated with blank?

A chemical reaction in which bonds are broken is usually associated with the absorption of energy in the form of heat. This is because breaking bonds requires energy input to overcome the forces holding atoms together.


In what reaction can element and a compound can usually be combined?

ammonia and chlorine to form ammonium chlorine, 8NH3 + 3Cl2 ---> 6NH4Cl + N2


What type of reaction is C3H8 plus O2 ----- CO2 plus H2O?

The reaction between C3H8 (propane) and O2 (oxygen) to form CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water) is a combustion reaction. This type of reaction involves the rapid reaction of a substance with oxygen, usually producing heat and light.

Which methods will usually cause a reaction to speed up?

Combining the reactants at a lower temperature. Reducing the concentration of reactants. Grinding one of the reactants into a powder. Removing the catalyst.


What can increase the chance of a reaction when two molecules collide?

An increase in temperature, higher concentration of reactants, and the presence of a catalyst can increase the chance of a reaction when two molecules collide. These factors can provide additional energy to overcome the activation energy barrier, leading to more collisions resulting in a reaction.


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.

How does increasing pressure affect the reaction rate?

The concentration of reactants is changed.


Why does increasing concentration usually increase reaction change?

Increasing the concentration of reactants typically increases the rate of a chemical reaction because it leads to a higher frequency of collisions between reacting molecules. With more particles present in a given volume, the likelihood of effective collisions—those that result in a reaction—grows, thereby enhancing the reaction rate. Additionally, more concentrated solutions often provide more opportunities for reactants to interact, further accelerating the overall rate of the reaction.


Increasing the concentration of a substrate substance slows down the rate of reaction?

No, if you increase the concentration of a substance there is a more likely chance of particle collisions occurring. Meaning the higher the concentration the faster the rate of reaction. Imagine people walking around in an empty room, the more people there are in the room, the more likely it is that they will begin to bump into each other, it's the same with particles. The bumping into each other (or collisions) is what will increase the rate of reaction. Conversely if you lower the concentration, there is a lot less chance that the tiny particles will collide with one another meaning the rate of reaction will decrease. Hope this Helps!


How does the concentration of affect the rate of reaction?

In general, an increase in concentration of reactants usually leads to a higher rate of reaction because more reactant molecules are available to collide and react. This results in more successful collisions per unit time, enhancing the reaction rate.


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

Increased temperature leads to an increase in reaction rate because it provides more kinetic energy to the molecules, which leads to more frequent and energetic collisions between reactant molecules, increasing the likelihood of successful collisions and reaction.


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.


If you were to raise the temperature of the solvent could the concentration levels of the solution increase?

Solubility of any solvent is usually temperature dependent and yes, the solubility of most salts increase when the temperature is increased. However the solubility of some salts also decreases with increasing temperature.
