How Fast Reactions Occur:
- Usually associated with synthesis or concentration of reactants colliding to

C6 H12 O6 + 6O2 reaction.

collision, comes greater energy.

faster the rate of reaction.

4) Presence of a Catalyst
- A catalyst is a substance that, when
added to a reaction mixture,
increases the rate of reaction but is
not changed or used up after the
reaction. This only hastens the
reaction process by providing
