Lesson 1: Collision Theory & Rates of Reaction

1. To describe the techniques and procedures used to investigate reaction rates including the measurement of mass and gas volumes
2. To explain the effect of concentration (including pressure of gases only) on the rate of reaction in terms of the frequency of collisions
3. To explain the role of a catalyst in chemical reactions

Lesson 2: Catalysts

1. To explain the role of a catalyst in chemical reactions
2. To explain the terms homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts
3. To explain the economic importance and benefits of using catalysts

Lesson 3: The Boltzmann Distribution

1. To draw a labelled diagram of the Boltzmann distribution
2. To explain qualitatively the Boltzmann distribution and its relationship with activation energy
3. To explain how temperature changes and catalytic behaviour effect the proportion of molecules exceeding the activation energy and hence the reaction rate using Boltzmann distributions

Declaimer: Please refrain from purchasing this popular resource for an interview lesson or a formal observation. This is because planning your own lessons including using your own lesson PowerPoints is a fundamental skill of a qualified/unqualified teacher that will be reviewed during these scenarios outlined above
