Reaction Rate Simulator
Change temperature and concentration and see how fast a reaction goes.

What you can learn
- Higher concentration means more collisions per second.
- Higher temperature makes particles faster, so more collisions have enough energy.
- The rate is the slope of the concentration-time graph.
Frequently asked questions
Why does raising the temperature speed up a reaction?
Particles move faster, so they collide more often and, more importantly, more of the collisions have at least the activation energy.
How do you measure a reaction rate?
By how quickly a reactant is used up or a product forms over time, which is the slope of the concentration-time graph.
