Rate of reaction

What this topic asks you to be able to do

  • Describe the effect each of these has on the rate of a reaction: (a) a change in the concentration of a solution (b) a change in the surface area of a solid (c) a change in temperature (d) adding or removing a catalyst
  • Explain that once a reaction is over, a catalyst is left unchanged
  • Describe practical ways to find the rate of a reaction, including those that follow a gas being formed, and use and evaluate these methods
  • Interpret the data from experiments on rate of reaction, including any graphs
