What would not speed up a chemical reaction?

Answer 1

Cold water and large pieces.

The opposite of catalytic catalysts [that enhance the rate of a specific chemical reaction] are catalytic poisons [that generally halt a particular chemical reaction].

An example is the introduction of the auto-exhaust catalytic converter: the catalyst was Palladium which was being poisoned by the Lead in the gasoline so we needed to convert to unleaded gas!

Another way of thinking.

1-Change of pressure for Reactions having liquid or solid reactants.

2-Sound

3-Color

4-Shape of container.

5-Place.

Answer 2

There are mant things that dont effect a chemical reaction such as light levels the easiest thing to do is to list what does effect a chemical reaction, Heat effects a chemical reaction but making the particles within the reaction speed up this takes it less time for the reaction to occur. Concentration levels effect a reaction because of the amount of particles there are. Catylist, this helps speed up a reaction without it being used up its self within the reaction.

Answer 3

addition of inert gas , addition of products , presence of poisons

Answer 4

it depends on which chemical reaction is being performed. In general, temperature and sunlight increase the rates of reaction and most other things have no effect at all.

Answer 5

An inhibitor or negative catalyst will decrease the rate of the reaction.

Answer 6

catalyst speeds up but other factor like temperature and pressure donot speed up all reactions

Answer 7

Cheerleaders. Tapping your watch impatiently. A stern talking-to.

Answer 8

Factors that would not speed up a chemical reaction include decreasing the temperature, decreasing the concentration of reactants, and using an inert substance as a catalyst.

Answer 9

Raising the activation energy
