Factors that Affect Reaction Rates 1. A slurry is a mixture of a finely divided solid with a liquid in which it is only sparingly soluble. As you prepare a reaction, you notice that one of your reactants forms a slurry with the solvent, rather than a solution. What effect will this have on the reaction rate? What steps can you take to try to solve the problem?
Explain what the reaction rate indicates about a particular chemical reaction.
How do reaction rates typically depend on temperature? What part of the rate law is temperature dependent?
