Study Notes

Rates of Reactions

  • Chemists use the term "rate of reaction" to describe how quickly chemical changes occur.
  • The rate of reaction is defined as the change in concentration per unit time of any one reactant or product.

Mandatory Experiment: Monitoring the Rate of Oxygen Production

  • Materials: Hydrogen peroxide, manganese dioxide, water, conical flask, test tube, thread, stopper, graduated cylinder, beehive shelf, teat pipette, delivery tube, stop clock.
  • Procedure:
    • Measure and dilute hydrogen peroxide.
    • Weigh and suspend manganese dioxide in the flask.
    • Fill a graduated cylinder with water and invert over a beehive shelf.
    • Inject air into the cylinder to mark the initial water level.
    • Allow the thread to fall and shake vigorously, starting the stop clock.
    • Record the total volume of oxygen produced every 30 seconds.
    • Plot a graph of total volume of oxygen against time.

Instantaneous Rate of Reaction

  • The instantaneous rate of reaction is the rate at any one particular time during the reaction.

Factors Affecting Rates of Reactions

  • Nature of Reactants:
    • The rate depends on the bonds involved (some bonds are easier to break/form than others).
    • Ionic bonds are faster than covalent bonds.
    • The nature of the reactants makes a difference in the rate that the reaction takes place.
  • Particle Size:
    • Smaller particles lead to faster reactions due to higher surface area, increasing collisions.
    • Powdered chemicals react faster than larger pieces.
    • Dust explosions can occur with finely divided particles (combustible particles, ignition source, dry particles, and oxygen are required).
  • Concentration:
    • Higher concentrations lead to faster rates as more particles mean greater collision chances.
  • Temperature:
    • Increased temperatures increase the rate of reaction. This is due to higher kinetic energy and more frequent and energetic collisions, increasing the number of successful collisions.
  • Catalysts:
    • Catalysts speed up reactions without being consumed.

Other Experiments (using sodium thiosulfate, hydrochloric acid)

  • Purpose: To study the effect of concentration on reaction rate.
  • Materials: Sodium thiosulfate solution, hydrochloric acid, conical flask, stop clock, cross on paper.
  • Procedure:
    • Use different concentrations of sodium thiosulfate.
    • Add hydrochloric acid to each.
    • Record the time it takes for the cross to disappear.
    • Plot a graph of 1/time against concentration.
  • Conclusion: The rate of the reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of sodium thiosulfate: a graph of 1/time against concentration shows a direct relationship; if concentration doubles, the reaction rate doubles.

Effect of Temperature on Reaction Rate (using sodium thiosulfate and hydrochloric acid)

  • Purpose: To study the effect of temperature on a reaction rate.
  • Materials: Sodium thiosulfate solution, hydrochloric acid, conical flask, stop clock, cross on paper, thermometer.
  • Procedure:
    • Use different temperatures of sodium thiosulfate.
    • Add hydrochloric acid to each, starting the stop clock.
    • Record time the cross disappears.
  • Conclusion: the graph plots 1/time against temperature shows a relationship where increasing temperature causes rate to increase. Increasing temperature will causes reaction rate to increase exponentially.

Catalysts

  • Definition: A substance which alters the rate of reaction but is not consumed in the reaction.
  • Homogeneous catalysis: Reactants and catalyst are in the same phase. (e.g., iodine clock experiment, hydrogen peroxide).
  • Heterogeneous catalysis: Reactants and catalyst are in different phases. (e.g., oxidation of methanol to methanal).
  • Catalyst properties: Catalysts are specific (act on only one type of reaction), only need small amounts to function, and are recovered chemically unchanged.
  • Catalytic converters: The platinum, palladium, and rhodium in catalytic converters reduce exhaust pollutants (e.g., carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and hydrocarbons).

Collision Theory and Activation Energy

  • Effective collisions: Collisions with sufficient energy to result in product formation.
  • Activation energy (Ea): Minimum energy required for an effective collision.
  • Reaction profile diagrams: Show the energy change during a reaction, with and without a catalyst. A catalyst lowers the activation energy.

Other Concepts

  • Autocatalysis: When one of the products acts as a catalyst for the reaction.
  • Catalyst poisons substances that reduce a catalyst's efficiency. (e.g., lead and sulfur).
