Explanation & Answer

a) rate  – the lower temperature means less kinetic energy means fewer

effective collisions

b) rate – higher pressure means greater concentration of reactants

means increased chance of collisions and  more effective collisions

c) no change – SO2(g) is a product. Only changes in reactant

concentrations will effect the rate of a forward reaction.

d) rate – grinding up the sulfur increases it’s surface area, increasing

the chance of collisions

e) rate  – increasing the volume lowers the pressure which effectively

lowers the concentration O2(g) (a reactant) meaning decreased chance of

collisions and  fewer effective collisions
