Rate Experiments During a reaction, the?reactants?are used up and changed into the?products This means that as the reaction proceeds, the concentration of the reactants is?decreasing?and the concen...
Further Modelling with Functions Assumptions, criticisms and refinements in modelling Modelling is a large part of A level mathematics Assumptions?and?refinements?to models often need to be conside...
Modelling with Functions What is a mathematical model? A?mathematical?model?simplifies a real-world situation so it can be described using mathematics which can then be used to make predictions The...
Activation Energy For a reaction to take place, the reactant particles need to overcome a minimum amount of energy This energy is called the?activation energy (Ea) In?exothermic reactions?the react...
