HCl(aq) + KOH(s) --> KCl(aq) + H2O(l)
Answer:
Decreasing the volume of solvent in the solution of molecule A
Explanation:
We know that one of the factors that affect the rate of reaction is the concentration of the reactants. The greater the concentration of reactants, the faster the rate of reaction (the greater the frequency of collision between reactants).
Hence, when we decrease the volume of solvent in the solution of molecule A, the concentration of the solution increases and consequently more particles of molecule A are available to collide with particles of molecule B resulting in a higher rate of reaction.
No, the properties of a substance are not affected by the amount of a substance.
