Which three factors affect the rate of a chemical reaction? temperature, reactant concentration, and catalyst catalyst, product concentration, and container volume temperature, pressure, and humidity temperature, reactant concentration, and pressure 3. What is equal to the slope of the reaction? instantaneous rate catalyst activation energy Le Chatelier's Principle 4. An increase in temperature... decreases the rate of the reaction increases the rate of the reaction doesn't do a thing to the rate of the reaction stops the rate of the reaction 5. A catalyst... speeds up the reaction while being consumed slows down the reaction while being consumed speeds up the reaction without being consumed slows down the reaction without being consumed 6. Which of the following will lower the activation energy for a reaction? increasing the concentrations of reactants raising the temperature of the reaction adding a suitable catalyst all of the above 7. Which one of the following statements is incorrect? Activation energies of simple reactions can be negative. More molecules in a gas have energies above some threshold value as the temperature is increased. The rates of two reactions can be equal at one temperature but differ at another. The lower the activation energy, the faster the rate if equal numbers of collisions are always involved. 8. In a series of reactions, which is the rate-determining step? the simplest reaction the fastest reaction the slowest reaction the main reaction involving a major reactant
