Several factors can influence the shape of kinetic curves in catalytic reactions:
Concentration of Reactants: Higher concentrations typically increase the reaction rate, leading to steeper slopes. Temperature: An increase in temperature generally accelerates the reaction rate, altering the curve's steepness. Catalyst Type: Different catalysts can have varying efficiencies, affecting the rate and thus the shape of the kinetic curve. Presence of Inhibitors: Inhibitors can slow down the reaction rate, flattening the curve.
