Chapter 1: Chemical Kinematics

1. The study of rates of chemical reactions and mechanism by which they occur.
Chemical Kinetics

2. Quantity that tells how the concentration of a given reactant or product changes with
time.
Rate of reaction

3-6. Enumerate 4 factors that govern chemical reactions

Concentrations of the reactants and products
Properties of both reactants and products
Presence of catalyst and its concentration
Temperature at which the reaction occurs

7-11. Enumerate 5 factors that speed up chemical reactions

Increase concentrations of reactants
Increase temperature of reaction
Increase surface area of reactants
Increase pressure of reaction
Use a catalyst on a reaction

12. States that for a reaction to occur a particle must have the correct orientation and have
sufficient energy.
Collision Theory
 13. States that for the rate determining steps in a reaction the rate of the reaction is
proportional to the product of concentrations of the reactants, each raised to the power of its
coefficient in the balanced equation.
Law of Mass Action

14. As the it increases, more reactant molecules collide with other reactant molecules in each
period, and more product molecules are formed.
Concentrations

15.The measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a gas, as it increases, the
average kinetic energy increases.
Temperature

16. A substance that alters the speed of a reaction without being consumed. It is used to speed
up or slow down a reaction.
Catalyst

17 – 21. Enumerate the nature of reactants

a. States of Matter
b. Bond Type, Number of Bonds, and Bond Strength
c. Molecular Size
d. Acidity
e. Reactivity of Metals
