Does temperature affect reaction time?
As the temperature increases the the molecules get more kinetic energy so as a result the reaction also occurs at a greater rate.
Why does temperature affect the rate of reaction?
When the temperature of a substance is decreased, the rate of a chemical reaction will decrease, because the higher temperature will cause the particles to move faster and to increase the number and...
How does temperature affect rate of reaction?
The higher temperature will cause the particles to move faster and to increase the number and strength of the collisions. So, a lower temperature will slow the speed at which the particles move and...
How does temperature affects rates of reaction?
if the reaction is exothermic (creates heat) then adding heat will cause the reaction to run in the reverse direction if the reaction is endothermic (requires heat) then heat will speed it up
How temperature affect the catalase reaction?
Increased temp give increased reaction rate. Only an approximation, but 10 degrees is said to double the rate.
