Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a hypothetical reaction involving two gases that only react when precisely aligned. How would increasing the temperature impact the reaction if the activation energy is high?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how temperature influences energy levels and collision rates.

Question 2

Design an experiment to test the impact of concentration changes on the reaction rate that depends heavily on correct orientation.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how concentration affects the likelihood of proper orientations of colliding particles.
