Changing k

Postby Jeffrey Hablewitz 2I » Sat Mar 13, 2021 4:44 pm

Besides changing the temperature or introducing a catalyst, are there any ways to change the rate constant of a reaction?

Good question. Would changing the activation energy change the rate constant? I would assume so because that is why we utilize catalysts.

I don't think there are any other ways to impact the rate constant!
Hope this helps!

That about covers it!
