The initial rate of a chemical reaction depends on which factor(s) below? I.concentration of reactants
II)concentration of products
III)temperature

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The initial rate of a chemical reaction is directly influenced by the concentration of reactants (I) and the temperature (III). Higher concentrations of reactants typically increase the rate of reaction, as does a higher temperature, which increases the energy and movement of particles, leading to more frequent and effective collisions. The concentration of products does not affect the initial rate of reaction.
