Chemistry Unit 2.4 - Rates of Reaction

Hi, this is a REALLY basic resource, as I feel RofR is a simple, and short module. This questions are tailored to fill in any gaps of knowledge that I have - but feel free to use them ^^

?
Describe catalysts.
They are not used up in a reaction. Many different catalysts are needed for different reactions.
1 of 8
Why are catalysts used in industry?
To reduce costs.
2 of 8
Neutralisation, oxidation and combustion are examples of what kind of reaction?
Exothermic.
3 of 8
Describe iron as a catalyst.
Used for making ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen.
4 of 8
Describe platinum as a catalyst.
Making ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen.
5 of 8
Describe vanadium(V) oxide as a catalyst.
Making sulfuric acid.
6 of 8
What is collision theory?
Chemical reaction - two particles must collide and have enough energy to react.
7 of 8
What is activation energy?
Minimum energy required for a reaction to commence.
