•   What is the collision theory?


•   How does temperature affect reaction rate?


•   How does surface area affect reaction rate?


•   How does concentration affect reactants?


•   How does the presence of a catalyst affect the reaction rate?


•   How do catalysts affect the activation energy?


•   Know how to interpret reaction rate graphs with and without catalysts
•   What is equilibrium? How does the rates of the forward reaction compare to the rates
    of the reverse reaction?


•   What is LeChatlier’s principle?


•   What kind of shifts in equilibrium are expected with changes in:

          Concentration

          Temperature

          Pressure

•   Know that the amount of energy released or absorbed during a chemical reaction is
    the heat of reaction
         Heat of reaction = PE of products – PE of reactants


•   What is an endothermic reaction? Is their heat of reaction + or -?

•   What is an exothermic reaction? Is their heat of reaction + or -?


•   How do you calculate the Keq (equilibrium constant) for an equation
    Ex.) aA + bB  cC dD



•   How does Keq determine whether the products or reactants are favored at equilibrium?


•   What is entropy? What is the entropy trend for systems?


•   What is enthalpy? What is the enthalpy trend for systems?


•   Spontaneous vs. non spontaneous reactions
