1. Kinetics does not answers if a chemical reaction occurs or not. What is the name of the chemical concept that does? 
 
 
2. What two pieces of information about chemical reaction does Kinetics explain? 
a. 
 
b. 
 
 
3. What is the name of the theory that Kinetics is based on ? Mr. <nowiki>McLeod</nowiki> believe that theory is just an extension of what other theory? Explain how/why. 
 
 
4. What are the two main part of Kinetics and what questions about chemical reaction do they answer? 
 
 
5. To completely describe something kinetically, it must be done thru experimentally data. True or False (Circle one). 
 
 
6. What happens if reactants have an Effective Collision (EC) and what two criteria do you need for an EC? 
 
 
 
7. What is Activation energy? 
 
 
8. What is an Activated Complex? 
 
 
9. On a Potential Energy diagram, what is the only portion of the diagram that can be changed using kinetic factors? 
 
 
10. What is the definition of temperature. 
 
 
11. How is temperature shown on the Kinetic Energy diagram? What does the area under the curve in the Kinetic Energy Diagram represent? 
 
 
12. Looking at the Kinetic Energy diagram, describe the location on the graph where you would find reactant particles that could be a part of an Effective Collision (EC). 
 
 
 
13. Why do most chemical reaction do not collide how the balanced overall chemical reaction shows? (Hint, General rule about numbers of particles colliding). 
 
 
14. If you want to increase the reaction rate of the overall chemical reaction that has several reaction step (several steps in the reaction mechanism), what step do you need to increase (state it name). Honors Chem328 students Don't do this question. 
 
 
15. What do you call a chemical that is make in one reaction but consumed in a subsequent reaction step (therefore the chemical is not in the overall chemical reaction)?Honors Chem328 students Don't do this question.
