  2. A B rate = D[A] D[B] rate = - Dt Dt Chemical Kinetics Thermodynamics – does a reaction take place? Kinetics – how fast does a reaction proceed? Reaction rate is the change in the concentration of a reactant or a product with time (M/s). D[A] = change in concentration of A over time period Dt D[B] = change in concentration of B over time period Dt Because [A] decreases with time, D[A] is negative.

  10. aA + bB cC + dD The Rate Law The rate law expresses the relationship of the rate of a reaction to the rate constant and the concentrations of the reactants raised to some powers. Rate = k [A]x[B]y Reaction is xth orderwith respect to A Reaction is yth orderwith respect to B Reaction is (x +y)th order overall

F2(g) + 2ClO2(g) 2FClO2(g) 1 Rate Laws • Rate laws are always determined experimentally. • Reaction order is always defined in terms of reactant (not product) concentrations. • The order of a reactant is not related to the stoichiometric coefficient of the reactant in the balanced chemical equation. rate = k [F2][ClO2]

How long will it take for A to decrease from 0.88 M to 0.14 M ? 0.88 M ln 0.14 M = 2.8 x 10-2 s-1 ln ln[A]0 – ln[A] = k k [A]0 [A] [A]0 = 0.88 M ln[A] = ln[A]0 - kt [A] = 0.14 M kt = ln[A]0 – ln[A] = 66 s t =

The sequence of elementary steps that leads to product formation is the reaction mechanism. N2O2 is detected during the reaction!

  27. Elementary step: NO + NO N2O2 + Elementary step: N2O2 + O2 2NO2 Overall reaction: 2NO + O2 2NO2 Intermediates are species that appear in a reaction mechanism but not in the overall balanced equation. An intermediate is always formed in an early elementary step and consumed in a later elementary step. • The molecularity of a reaction is the number of molecules reacting in an elementary step. • Unimolecular reaction – elementary step with 1 molecule • Bimolecular reaction – elementary step with 2 molecules • Termolecular reaction – elementary step with 3 molecules

  28. Unimolecular reaction Bimolecular reaction Bimolecular reaction A + B products A + A products A products Rate Laws and Elementary Steps rate = k [A] rate = k [A][B] rate = k [A]2 • Writing plausible reaction mechanisms: • The sum of the elementary steps must give the overall balanced equation for the reaction. • The rate-determining step should predict the same rate law that is determined experimentally. The rate-determining step is the sloweststep in the sequence of steps leading to product formation.

  29. Sequence of Steps in Studying a Reaction Mechanism

  30. Step 1: Step 2: NO2 + NO2 NO + NO3 NO2+ CO NO + CO2 NO3 + CO NO2 + CO2 The experimental rate law for the reaction between NO2 and CO to produce NO and CO2 is rate = k[NO2]2. The reaction is believed to occur via two steps: What is the equation for the overall reaction? What is the intermediate? NO3 What can you say about the relative rates of steps 1 and 2? rate = k[NO2]2 is the rate law for step 1 so step 1 must be slower than step 2

  32. In heterogeneous catalysis, the reactants and the catalysts are in different phases. • Haber synthesis of ammonia • Catalytic converters In homogeneous catalysis, the reactants and the catalysts are dispersed in a single phase, usually liquid. • Acid catalysis • Base catalysis
