Chemistry · Rate of a chemical reaction, factors affecting the rate of reactions: concentration, temperature, pressure and catalyst

As the concentration of reactants increases:

As the concentration of reactants increases:

  • A. rate of the reaction decreases
  • B. rate of the reaction increases
  • C. rate of the reaction remains the same
  • D. reaction stops

Step-by-step solution

According to collision theory, increasing the concentration of reactants increases the number of particles per unit volume, leading to more frequent collisions and thus a higher reaction rate.
