Rates and temperature

Hot and quick

The rate of a chemical reaction is significantly affected by its temperature. the effect of temperature on rate can be shown visually using the Maxwell - Boltzmann distribution. 


AQA

The Maxwell Boltzmann curve is  a distribution curve which shows the way in which the speeds of particles in a sample of gas molecules vary.  

This video shows how a computer simulation with a limited number of particles produces a distribution curve very similar in shape to the predicted Maxwell- Boltzmann curve.
