Description

Graph of Reaction Rate vs. Temperature

The graph shows the rate of reaction (in arbitrary units) on the y-axis and temperature (in degrees Celsius) on the x-axis. As the temperature increases, the rate of reaction also increases until it levels off at higher temperatures.

a
Analyse the graph and describe the relationship between temperature and reaction rate.
Your answer
Aim for approximately 3 distinct marking points.
