What are the requirements for something to be considered a catalyst? |
|
Definition

|
|
Term
Which types of reaction will increasing the temperature speed up?
A. Exothermic
B. Endothermic
C. Isothermic |
|
Definition
Answer: All of them. Adding energy in the form of heat will raise the energy of the reactants, increasing the number of particles with enough energy to make it over the activation energy hurdle. The slowest part of any chemical reaction is making it over the big hill, so this has the effect of speeding up the reaction. A rule of thumb that chemists use is that for every 10 degrees of temperature increase, the reaction rate will double. |
|
|
Term
How does a catalyst speed up a chemical reaction? |
|
Definition
A catalyst provides an alternate reaction pathway with a lower energy of activation.
Since the energy hurdle is lower, the reactants make it over it faster, speeding up the reaction.
This effect does not depend on if the reaction is exothermic or endothermic, since it only changes the activation energy, not the energies of the reactants or products. |
