Controlling Chemical Reactions

This image above best represents what type of chemical reaction? Explain your answer.

What does activation energy refer to in a chemical reaction?

How does a catalyst affect the activation energy of a reaction?

What happens if the activation energy in a chemical reaction is not reached?

Which side of a chemical equation are the reactants?

What type of reaction is shown below?

CA(OH)2 + AL2(SO4)3 --> CASO4 + AL(OH)3

Why is it important to balance a chemical equation?

What is this graph displaying?

Which accurately describes the function of a catalyst in a chemical reaction?

What would likely happen if you remove a catalyst from a chemical reaction?

Explain the graph above to me. (Including het vocabulary terms catalyst, activation energy, exothermic/endothermic)

Are catalysts consumed in the chemical reactions they facilitate?

If you change the concentration of a substance, that means you are adding more of that substance to the same given volume. This will make the reaction slow down.

In an endothermic reaction, the products have less energy than the reactants because energy is released.

All reactions must have enough energy to start the reaction.

Increasing the surface area of the reactants will decrease the rate of the reaction.

Heat gives the reactant particles more energy. You can increase the surface area and concentration or also use a catalyst it speed up the reaction

Match the vocabulary terms to the correct definition.

When we increase the amount of concentration of a substance, how are we affecting the rate of reaction?

The human body has chemical reactions happening all the time. If we increase this in your saliva the food in your mouth will break down faster.
