Reaction Rates (Factors Affecting Reaction Rates): 5.1 - AP Chemistry Unit 5 Topic 1

Temperature, Concentration and Catalyst Alter Reaction Rate. Collision Theory, Graphs and Particulate Modeling and Drawings will be discussed to explain how these changes increase the rate of reaction. Reaction Progress Graphs for Endothermic and Exothermic Reactions are given as well as the Maxwell-Boltzman distribution for two samples of gas particles at different temperatures. The activation energy, Ea, and the activation energy with a catalyst, Ea cat, is discussed also. #ReactionRate #Catalyst #SchmidtChemist
