In the reaction: 2 C₂H₆(g)+ 7 O₂(g)→ 4 CO₂(g)+ 6 H₂O(g),increasing the concentration of C₂H₆(g)will ________.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Increasing the concentration of a reactant in a chemical reaction typically increases the reaction rate because it increases the likelihood of reactant particles colliding with enough energy to react. This principle is based on the collision theory of chemical reactions. The activation energy and the ΔH of the reaction are intrinsic properties of the reaction and are not affected by changes in reactant concentrations.
