Q.5.
A catalyst speeds up a chemical reaction by...
Q.6.
If the surface area of a solid reactant is increased, why is the rate of reaction increased?
Q.7.
Scientists have developed catalysts that enable reactions to take place at lower temperatures. Why is this advantageous to the manufacturer and the environment?
Q.8.
Chemical reactions eventually stop. What is the usual reason for this?
Q.9.
Why can icing sugar cause an explosion but sugar lumps can't?
Q.10.
Some chemical reactions may take place twice as quickly if their temperature is raised by 10°C. If a particular reaction takes 32 minutes at 20°C, how long will it take if the temperature is raised to 60°C?
