Some chemical reactions are non-spontaneous; they will not take place unless forced, by inputting energy or applying external factors. A process where electric current is used in order to make a reaction (electrolyte) occur is called Electrolysis. Here, el...

In electrolysis, there are cases where different ions of the same charge migrate to the same electrode, but it is only one type of ion gets to be discharged at the supposed electrode.

There are three factors that determine the type of ion to be disch...

FACTORS AFFECTING THE RATES OF CHEMICAL REACTION

Chemical reactions go at different rates (speed) due to there chemical properties/makeup. But these rates can be changed inorder to attain the desired outcome of a reaction by applyin...

THE COLLISION THEORY, ACTIVATION ENERGY AND ACTIVATED COMPLEX (TRANSITION STATE)

Particles (ions/atoms/molecules) must collide with one another for a reaction to take place; i.e reactant forming product. When reactant particles cont...

CHEMICAL KINETICS – RATES OF CHEMICAL REACTIONS

Chemistry Kinetics is all about the description of the rates at which a reaction proceeds, which is also influenced on how long (time duration) it takes the reaction to occur and get completed, i.e how...
