Some different things that could speed/slow up/down a chemical reaction are:
Temperature
(If higher, molecules move faster, reactions speeds up) SPEED UP
Temperature
(If lower, molecules will move slower, reaction slower) SLOW DOWN
CATALYST
(A catalyst is anything that SPEEDS up a reaction without being consumed[running out of energy]) SPEED UP
Concentration
More substrates [reactants/puzzle pieces to enzymes faster reaction)SPEED UP
Concentration
(Less substrates- slower reaction) SLOW DOWN
...well, there you go... :)
What else can I help you with?
Do catalysts affect temperature?
A catalyst affects the speed of a chemical reaction. If the chemical reaction gives off heat, the reaction may affect the temperature, but the catalyst by itself doesn't affect the temperature.
How do catalysts affect the reaction s in living things?
In living things, catalysts help increase the rate of chemical reactions without being consumed in the process. They lower the activation energy needed for the reaction to occur, making it more efficient. This allows living organisms to maintain the reactions necessary for life at the appropriate speed.
What is the difference between rate of reaction and chemical equation?
The chemical equation is the word expression of a chemical reaction.The rate of reaction give information about the speed of this reaction.
What are proteins that speed up a chemical reaction in living things?
A catalyst. Definition from Pretence Hall Biology: A catalyst is a protein that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction.
Which of the following is not required in a chemical reaction?
An enzyme is not required in a chemical reaction. While reactants, energy, and a chemical reaction pathway are essential components of a chemical reaction, enzymes can speed up the reaction but are not always necessary for it to occur.
Do catalysts affect temperature?
A catalyst affects the speed of a chemical reaction. If the chemical reaction gives off heat, the reaction may affect the temperature, but the catalyst by itself doesn't affect the temperature.
What are enzymes called because they affect the speed of chemical reaction without being consumed?
enzymes are never consumed in a chemical reaction, therefore the answer to your question is that enzymes that affect the speed of a chemical reaction without being consumed are indeed called enzymes.
What things can be done to change how fast a chemical reaction occurs?
You can add a catalyst, or raise the temperature, or change the pressure, these are some of the things done to speed up a chemical reaction.
How do enzymes affect the reaction in living things?
Enzymes act as catalysts. They speed up the reaction time.
Which term refers to proteins that speed up chemical reaction in living things?
enzymes
What can speed up a chemical reaction by decreasing?
chemical reaction
What is chemical reaction in an enzyme?
to speed up a chemical reaction
What things will slow down or speed up a chemical reaction such as between vinegar and baking powder?
Heat would speed up the reaction, while cold would slow the reaction.
What term refers to protein that speed up chemical reaction in living things?
Enzyme
What is lowered to speed up a chemical reaction?
Activation energy is lowered to speed up a chemical reaction.
What aspects of chemical reaction are enzymes known to affect?
Enzymes affect the speed of reactions predominantly. In some instances in which more than one reaction is possible, enzymes increase the speed of the normally slower reaction enough to make it predominate, while the other possible reaction is effectively suppressed.
What is the main function to speed up a chemical reaction?
Chemical reactions can be sped up by: 1) Increasing the surface area of reaction. 2) Heating the reaction. 3) Sometimes choosing a different solvent can speed things up. 4) Use of a catalyst.
