,Rate of Reaction
* How fast a reaction takes place
↳ Many factors affect this
* COLLISION THEORY :
order for two molecules
↳ In to react
chemically they ,
must come into contact
with sufficient É to break existing bonds within the molecules and come
into contact with the correct orientation .
↳ This results in an EFFECTIVE COLLISION
* Rate of reaction = amount of effective collisions per unit time

reactants are used up and products are formed

, Factors Affecting Rate of Reactions
① Surface Area (solids )

Increasing of reaction
* More of the solid is exposed
* More contact points for effective collisions which increases the amount of effective
