1) What must happen for a reaction to occur?

1

2) How does surface area affect the reaction rate?

4) How does increasing the concentration (amount) of a reactant increase the reaction rate?

*Note about Catalysts: Our saliva (an enzyme) acts as a catalyst to begin breaking down our food. Adding Catalysts to speed up a reaction is like taking a shortcut for the reaction rate.
