In chemical kinetics we study Factors affecting the rate the rate (or speed) at which 1) State of the reactants a chemical process occurs. 2) Reactant concentrations Kinetics also sheds light on 3) Reaction temperature the reaction mechanism, a molecular-level view of the 4) Presence of a catalyst inhibitor (path leading from reactants to products.S 2 1. Physical State of the Reactants Reactant must come together to react. The more readily the reactants collide, the more rapidly they react. Homogeneous reactions are often faster. Heterogeneous reactions that involve solids are faster if the surface area is * increased; i.e., a fine powder reacts fastersurface than a pellet or tablet. 3 2. Reactant Concentrations Increasing reactant concentration generally increases reaction rate. Since there are more molecules, more collisions occur. ferric oxide 4 3. Temperature Reaction rate generally increases with increased temperature. Kinetic energy of molecules is related to temperature. KEL T(k) At higher temperatures, molecules move more quickly, increasing numbers of collisions and the energy the molecules possess during the collisions. 5 4. Presence of a Catalyst that increase Catalysts agents are reaction rates without being used up. Catalysts affect rate without being in the overall balanced equation. Catalysts affect the change th kinds of collisions, mechanism changing the mechanism. Catalysts are critical in many biological reactions. 6 Reaction Rate reactants products Rate is a change in concentration over time 3) -Δ[R]/Δt or +Δ[P]/Δt – Δ means “change in.” + – [ ] means molar concentration. – t represents time. # 1 Three types of rates can be quoted average rate (measured over a period of time instantaneous rate initial rate measured at any point during the ryn) (measured at the beginning of the rxn ). 7 Following Reaction Rates [reactants) reaction rate = rate = -change in change in time The average rate is calculated by the -D[C4H9Cl] / Dt.

Temperature 2. Frequency of collisions 3. Orientation of molecules 4. Energy needed to start the reaction (activation energy) Generally, as temperature increases, rate increases. The rate constant is temperature dependent Rate constant approx. doubles with each 10 ºC rise. 27 Frequency of Collisions The collision model is based on the kinetic molecular theory. 1. Molecules must collide to react. 2. If there are more collisions, more reactions can occur. 3. If there are more molecules, the reaction rate is faster. 4. If the temperature is higher, molecules move faster, causing more collisions and a higher rate of reaction. 28 The Collision Model In a chemical reaction, bonds are broken & new bonds are formed. – Molecules can only react if they collide with each other. – Molecules can often collide without forming products. – Molecules can collide in different ways, leading to different products – Aligning molecules properly can lead to chemical reactions. For a reaction to occur, the molecules: – Must react in the correct orientation. – Must have sufficient energy to overcome the barrier to reaction. This is called activation energy. /Ea] barrier energy properangle effective collision proper amount of energy 29 Transition State (Activated Complex) Reacting particles must have sufficient energy to reach the TS maximum energy state. – This is called the transition state (or activated complex). – The energy needed to form this state is called the activation energy.

We call the description the rate law. Why do we observe that rate law? We explain with a theory called a mechanism. explanation why we observe something. A mechanism is a series of stepwise reactions that show how reactants become products. 36 Reaction Mechanisms Reactions may occur all at once or through several discrete steps. a sequence of reactions.
