reactivity
reactivity increases as you go down group 1 because the electrons are arranged so there is one extra electron on the outermost shell. This makes it reactive. as the distance from the nucleus to the single electron increases, the reactivity does as well
-
the attraction between the positively charged nucleus ad the outermost electrons get weaker as the atom size increases. it makes it easier to lose the outer electron

UNI 4
rates of reactions
for particles to react, they must have sufficient amount of activation energy to react with each other
catalyst
a catalyst is a substance that is added to a chemical to speed up the reaction. catalyst will lower the activation energy and allow a new pathway for the particles to bond. this will increase the rate of reaction and form more successful collisions per unit time
temperature
as the temperature increases, the rate of reaction also increases since the particles have more kinetic energy making them move around faster which results in more successful collisons per unit time.
surface area
the rate of reaction will increase with a larger surface area because more particles are exposed to the reactant meaning there will be more successful collisions per unit time.
pressure
As the pressure increases so does the rate of reaction. Increased pressure is when particles are pushed together in an area so there will be smaller amount of space to move around. this means there will be more chance of successful collisions per unit time
concentration
at a higher concentration, the rate of reaction will be quicker because there will be more reactant particles in a set volume.
-
activation energy is the minimum amount of energy for the reaction to start happening and to provide energy for the particles to start moving
