Chapter 18 Reaction Rates And Equilibrium
In layman’s terms, equilibrium is defined as a state of balance due to equal reactions of opposing forces, and today we’ll be talking all about it with regards to the scientific study of chemistry, focusing on such topics as reaction rates. What can you tell us? Let’s find out.
- 1.How are rates of chemical change expressed?

- A.
Reactant, product
- B.
Cataltyst, energy

- 9.Why is an activated complex sometimes called the transition state?
- A.
It is called the transition state because an activated complex is unstable and is as likely to re-form reactants as it is to form products.
- B.
It is called the transition state because an activated complex is stable and is as likely to re-form reactants as it is to form products.
- C.
It is called the transition state because an activated complex is unstable and is as likely to re-form reactants as it is to form reactant.

Decrease
- C.
Interpret
- 12.What happens when you put more reacting particles into a fixed volume?
- A.
The concentration of reactants increases, the collision frequency increases, and, therefore, the reaction rate decreases.
- B.
The concentration of reactants increases, the collision frequency increases, and, therefore, the reaction rate increases.
- C.
The concentration of reactants decreases, the collision frequency increases, and, therefore, the reaction rate increases.

One way is to dissolve the solid; another way is to grind the solid into a fine powder.
- B.
One way is to leave it as a solid; another way is to make it into a liquid.
- C.
One way is to make into a vapor; another way is to change it into rough powder.
- 15.A ______________________ is a substance that increases the rate of a reaction without being used up itself during the reaction.
- A.
Product
- B.
Reactant
- C.
Catalyst
- 16.What does a catalyst do?
- A.
A catalyst permits reactions to proceed at a lower energy than is normally required. A catalyst lowers the activation energy.
- B.
A catalyst permits reactions to proceed at a higher energy than is normally required. A catalyst lowers the activation energy.
- C.
A catalyst permits reactions to proceed at a lower energy than is normally required. A catalyst raises the activation energy.
- 17.In a chemical equation, how do you show that catalysts are not consumed or chemically altered during a reaction?
- A.
The catalyst is often written above the stop arrow in the equation.
- B.
The catalyst is often written below the yield arrow in the equation.
- C.
The catalyst is often written above the yield arrow in the equation.
