Why do most nuclear chain reactions stop before all of the reactants has been used up?
Most nuclear chain reactions stop before all of the reactants are used up because the reaction tends to slow down as the concentration of reactants decreases. This is due to the decrease in the probability of collisions between particles needed to continue the reaction. Additionally, the build-up of reaction byproducts can also interfere with the process as they absorb neutrons needed to sustain the chain reaction.
What happens to a reaction as the reactant are used up?
The rate of the reaction slows down
What is the name given to a substances used in a chemical reaction?
It depends what you are talking about, reagents are the substances that you put in at the beginning of a reaction to form products. But you can also have reactions taking place within a solvent, for example H20, DMF or THF. Reagents is probably the answer your looking for though.
Why aren't enzymes used up during a reaction?
It is not used up as it is a substance that the reactants can stick to, so there are more successful collisions (collision theory), increasing the rate of reaction; as opposed to reacting with the reactants.
Reactants and products?
The substances used up in a reaction are the reactants. The new substances made are called the products. The terms reactant and product can be used to describe constituents of individual enzymatic reactions or entire metabolic pathways. Reactants (or 'substrates') are the starting materials for a reaction, In the generic reaction shown below, A and B are the reactants. C and D are the products. http://www.marietta.edu/~spilatrs/biol103/photolab/reaction.html image reference
What happens to the reaction rate as the reactants get used up in the reaction?
The rate of the reaction begins to decrease as reactants are used up (apex)
What happens to the rate of reaction as the reaction progresses?
The rate decreases as reactants are used up.
What happens to the reaction rate as the reactions get used up in a reaction?
The rate of the reaction begins to decrease as reactants are used up (apex)
What do you call a substances used up in a reaction?
Reactants. Reactants react to produce products.
What are materials that are used up in the reaction called?
they are called reactants
A chemical reaction has inputs called what?
They are called reactants. The outputs are called products.
What are the reactants and the products of the forward Left to right reaction?
Reactants- The substances used up in a reaction. Products- The new substances made.
Are products used up in a reaction?
No. Products are produced by a reaction. However, products may be used as reactants in a multi-step reaction.
What happens to the reaction rate as the reactants get used up in a reaction?
The rate of a reaction begins to decreases as reactant are used up
What describes the reactants and products involved in a reaction?
Reactants are the substances that are consumed or used up in a chemical reaction to form products. Products are the new substances that are formed as a result of the reaction between the reactants.
How is a catalyst different from the reactants and products of a chemical reaction?
A catalyst is not consumed in a chemical reaction, unlike reactants that are consumed to form products. Catalysts lower the activation energy required for a reaction to occur, increasing the reaction rate without being permanently changed or used up in the process. Reactants are the starting materials that undergo a chemical reaction to form products, which are the final substances produced at the end of the reaction.
What happens to the reaction rate as the reaction gets used up?
The reaction rate depends on the order of the reaction. In general (except for zero order), as the reaction progresses, the rate decreases with time.
