Question

Campfires are started with matches that are used to light loosely packed kindling(small pieces of very dry wood)

This example contains 3 factors of collision theory

Answer 1

Would I be right?

When wood burns, the wood must first be heated up so that there are flammable gases being produced the mass of the wood has a bearing on how hot it can get and what vapors can be produced. Large pieces of wood heated with a match never gets hot enough to form the volatile gases required for combustion, only small pieces of wood can be made hot enough to decompose into flammable gaseous hydrocarbons when heated by a match. Therefore, small pieces of wood (kindle) are used to start fires.
(temperature & catalyst- a match dragged across a rough surface produces an increase in temperature, heat, and friction. The friction and increased temperature from the match dragging causes the match head chemicals to spark and light up which can be used to light up the kindle.
surface area: small pieces of wood have higher surface area which increases the number of collisions during combustion reaction,
concentration: the increase of surface area produces a higher oxygen concentration which leads to greater rate of reaction-more particle collisions)

Answer 2

Factors are: concentration, temperature, catalyst, nature of reactants, surface area

Answer 3

I think that's perfect!
