____________________ 1. A catalyst is a substance that can be added to a reaction to increase the reaction rate without getting consumed in the process.

____________________ 2. Heat is not a catalyst since it can’t be taken out of the reaction in the same amount it was inputted into the reaction.

____________________ 3. Catalysts increase the rates of chemical reactions by raising the activation energy of the reactions.

____________________ 4. Collisions only result in a reaction if the particles collide with a certain maximum energy called the activation energy of the reaction.

____________________ 5. A chemical reaction may be energetically favorable (i. exothermic), and so if the activation barrier is high (i. the activation energy is high), the reaction rate may be extremely slow.

_______________________ _6. Decreasing the concentration of reactants increases the collision frequency between reacting particles.

________________________ 7_. Increasing_ the concentration of a substance increases the kinetic energy of the particles that make up the substance.

1

Catalyst

Reaction rates generally increase with increasing reactant concentration, increasing temperature, and the addition of a catalyst. Physical properties such as high solubility also increase reaction rates. Solvent polarity can either increase or decrease the rate of reaction, but increasing solvent viscosity generally decreases reaction rates.

This information is obtained by studying the chemical kinetics of a reaction, which depend on various factors: reactant concentrations, temperature, physical states and surface areas of reactants, and solvent and catalyst properties if either are present.

Increasing the ___________ of a system increases the average kinetic energy of its constituent particles. As the average kinetic energy increases, the particles move faster and collide more frequently per unit time and possess greater energy when they collide. When the ___________ of all the reactants increases, more molecules or ions interact to form new compounds, and the rate of reaction increases. When solids and liquids react, increasing the surface area of the solid will increase the reaction rate. A decrease in ___________ causes an increase in the solid’s total surface area. Collisions only result in a reaction if the particles collide with a certain minimum energy called the ___________ for the reaction. The position of activation energy can be determined on a Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution. To increase the rate of a reaction, the number of successful collisions must be increased. One possible way of doing this is to provide an alternative way for the reaction to happen which has a lower activation energy. Adding ___________ has this effect on activation energy. It provides an alternative route for the reaction with a lower activation energy. Catalysts are everywhere! Many biochemical processes, such as the oxidation of glucose, are heavily dependent on ___________, proteins that behave as catalysts.

What’s New

Excellent! You are good in analyzing information. As a reward, I will share a story with you.

I am more than glad and happy hearing that from you. I’ll just get my book and read it for you.

Wow, I do love hearing stories. Can’t wait any longer Professor X.

It was the final performance task for the Grade 11 students, Maria and Anna, under the TVL Track. Their teacher asked them to bake a bread that’s worth ₱ 15 .00. They both managed to bake Enzymada Bread as their product. Maria added cheese and sprinkled sugar on top of it while Anna made the old style recipe of Enzymada with margarine and sprinkled sugar. Both tasted great and were presented very well. However Anna’s Enzymada looked a half bigger than Maria’s giving it an approval for the proposed price.

That sound’s interesting and appetizing!

What makes their bread size different? In baking, Baker's yeast is the common name for the strains of yeast commonly used in baking bread and bakery products, serving as a leavening agent which causes the bread to rise (expand and become lighter and softer) by converting the fermentable sugars present in the dough into carbon dioxide and ethanol. The yeast act as the catalyst in the process. It increases the rate of reaction without itself being consumed. There are also some fruits that are affected by catalysts.

What is It

Key Terms

  • Activation energy: the minimum energy required for a reaction to occur.
  • Catalysis: the increase in the rate of a chemical reaction by lowering its activation energy.
  • Transition state: an intermediate state during a chemical reaction that has a higher energy than the reactants or the products.
  • Maxwell-Boltzmann Distribution: a probability distribution used for describing the speeds of various particles within a stationary container at a specific temperature. The distribution is often represented with a graph, with the y-axis defined as the number of molecules and the x-axis defined as the speed.

To increase the rate of a reaction, the number of successful collisions must be increased. One possible way of doing this is to provide an alternative way for the reaction to happen which has a lower activation energy. In other words, to move the activation energy to the left on the graph:

Adding a catalyst has this effect on activation energy. A catalyst provides an alternative route for the reaction with a lower activation energy. This is illustrated on the following energy profile:

Originally, only the number of particles represented by the area under this part of the curve had high enough energies to react. particles which don’t have enough energy to react

Now all these extra particles have enough energy to Number of react as well. particles

####### Additional Activities

Activity 1.

In your daily living, list (five) 5 activities and its acting catalysts that you observe affecting the reaction rate. It can be present when you are eating, washing clothes and others. Do this in a separate sheet of paper.

What is not a characteristic of a catalyst?

Equilibrium constant cannot be changed upon addition of catalyst as catalyst affects both forward and backward reactions to the same extent and hence don't alter the equilibrium constant. Rather it provides an alternative path wth lower activation energy to fasten the reaction.

Is not a characteristic of a catalyst it participates in the reaction it enhances the equilibrium rate it activates equilibrium it Initialises the reaction?

Which of the following is not a characteristic of a catalyst? Explanation: The main purpose of using a catalyst is only to increase the rate of achieving the equilibrium state in case of slow reaction. Other than that it will not initiate or involve in the reaction.

What are the characteristics of catalyst reaction?

Characteristics of a catalyst are as follows : Catalyst activates the rate of reaction but cannot initiate it. Catalytic activity is maximum at optimum temperature. Catalyst lowers the activation energy of forward and backward reaction and also lowers threshold energy. It provides a new mechanism for the reaction.

Which of the following is not true for a catalyst *?

A catalyst does not alter the equilibrium in a reversible reaction.
