Rate of reaction

What this topic asks you to be able to do

  • explain the meaning of each of these terms, and use them: the rate of reaction, the frequency of collisions, and effective and non-effective collisions
  • account for qualitatively how raising or lowering concentration or pressure alters reaction rate, linking this to the frequency of effective collisions
  • use results from experiments to work out a reaction's rate
