Contrast synthesis/anabolism and decomposition/catabolism reactions.
Describe how an increase or decrease in the concentration of reactants would affect the reaction rate.
Describe how an increase or decrease in the temperature of a reaction would affect the reaction rate.
What are catalysts? What do they do?
What are enzymes? What do they do?
