Reaction Rates Crossword Puzzle

QUESTIONS LIST:

• dynamic equilibrium : a state where the forward and backward reaction rates are equal.
• increase : increasing the number of collisions between molecules would _ the rate of the reaction
• collision theory : the idea that particles must collide with enough energy and in the correct orientation to react.
• exothermic : a reaction that gives off heat as a product is called an _ reaction.
• reaction rate : how quickly a chemical change occurs.
• surface area : breaking a solid reactant into smaller pieces increases this.
• temperature : increasing this makes particles move faster and reactions speed up.
• concentration : the amount of a substance in a certain space.
• catalyst : a substance that speeds up a reaction without being used up.
• collide : what atoms and molecules do when they interact.
• slower : decreasing the concentration of reactants would make the reaction go
• le chateliers : a principle that describes how a system at equilibrium responds to change.
