- Q1If you want to make a solid react faster with a liquid, what should you do to the solid?cool the soliddilute the liquidcompress the solidbreak the solid into smaller pieces30s
- Q2Why do smaller particles of a solid react faster than larger particles of the same solid?they have a lower massthey have a higher densitythey have a smaller volumethey have a larger surface area30s
- Q3Which has a greater surface area to volume ratio: 5g of large calcium carbonate chips, 5g of small calcium carbonate chips or 5g of powdered calcium carbonate?5g of small calcium carbonate chips5g of large calcium carbonate chipsthey all have the same surface area5g of powdered calcium carbonate30s
- Q4Why is it important to control variables in a rate of reaction experiment?to ensure the experimental results are reliableto increase the reaction rateto decrease the reaction rateto change the outcome of the experiment30s
- Q5Which of the following should be kept constant in an experiment investigating the effect of surface area on reaction rate?the surface area of a solid reactantthe time taken for the reaction to reach completionthe volume of gas producedthe concentration of a reacting solution30s
- Q6What will we have calculated if we divide the amount of product made by the time taken?rate of reactiontemperature of the reaction mixtureconcentration of a reacting solidmass of reacting solid needed for the reaction to reach completionmass of catalyst added30s
