Question

What are 4 things that will alter the rate of a chemical reaction?

Answer 1

Well here is a tentative order....

Explanation:

`(i)` `"Temperature"`...clearly, the higher the temperature, the greater the rate of chemical reaction...

`(ii)` `"Concentration"`...clearly, the greater the concentration of reactants, the greater the rate of chemical reaction...

`(iii)` `"Catalysis"`...catalysts can promote or hinder the rate of the reaction, by facilitating the path to equilibrium...

`(iv)` `"Homogeneity"`...clearly, homogeneous reactions, in the gaseous or liquid state, will be faster than in homogeneous reactions occurring between solid and liquid or gas, liquid etc....
