Explanation

Question 16 of 32

1

Fill the blank space to complete the text.

The rate of a reaction depends on four things: temperature, , catalyst and surface area.

Explanation

Question 17 of 32

1

Which of these methods of measuring the rate of a reaction is the most accurate?

Select one of the following:

  • Precipitation: observing a mark through the solution and measuring how long it takes for the mark to disappear

  • Change in mass: carry experiment out on a mass balance and observe how mass disappears (as gas is released)

  • Volume of gas given off: Use a gas syringe to measure volume of gas given off

Explanation

Question 18 of 32

1

Select from the dropdown list to complete the text.
