Collision Theory
What is collision theory?
For molecules to react they must first collide
In addition, they must be the right orientation …
… and have enough energy

What affects reaction rate?
TemperaturePressure
ConcentrationParticle size
Catalyst
How fast a chemical reaction goes is affected by many factors.
List them …
What about enzymes?
Enzymes are biological catalysts and for our purposes will be considered the same
as chemical catalysts
How fast a chemical reaction goes is affected by many factors.
List them ...

Chemical reaction rates
Temperature
Why does sugar dissolve in tea faster than water?
High Temp
Molecules have more energy …
… fewer collisions
Low Temp
Molecules have less energy …
… fewer collisions

As surface area increases the rate
of reaction generally increases
The particles on the
surface can react
When cut into smaller pieces the particles on the inside
can react
Chemical reaction rates
Surface Area
Which one will dissolve first in a cup of tea?

As the concentration of reactants increases, so does the likelihood that reactant molecules will
collide …The fewer red particles in a volume - the less chance of a collision
The more red particles in the same volume -
there is more chance of a collision
Chemical reaction rates
Concentration
… the rate of reaction increases

Chemical reaction rates
PressureWhat happens if you
increase the pressure in a reaction?
Increase in Pressure
Molecules are closer together
Number of collisions increases
Rate of reaction increases

A substance that increases the rate
of a reaction without being
consumed in the reaction
Chemical reaction rates
Catalysts
What is a catalyst?Provide an alternative pathway for reactions
… are biological catalysts (proteins) that increase the rate of biochemical reactions
Enzymes …
