1.3 Factors affecting K

The effect of a change in temperature on K: Reactions depend on kinetic energy, and temperature is a measure of the amount of kinetic energy. Therefore, with an increased tempereature, more particles have kinetic energy, and therefore, more will sucessfully collide in order to exceed the activation energy.

The effect of a change in presure on K: No effect.

The effect of a change in species concentration on K: Concentration is within the equation. As the concentration increases, so does K.
