Ch 18 Chemical Kinetics and Ch 12 Thermodynamics Reaction Mechanism: When the first step is Rate-Limiting ( i.e., slow); the Rate Law is Integer Order: 1st, 2nd or 3rd Order. When the second step is Rate-Limiting; the Rate Law may or may not be Integer. When neither step is Rate-Limiting, the Steady State Apprx: can be used to find the Rate Law! Catalysis: Increasing the Reaction Rate via a substance not Generated or Consumed in the Rxn, and that Provides a Lower Activation Barrier Rxn Path Equilibrium Constant: K(T)=kf/kr=(Af/Ar)exp{-(Eaf-Ear)} aA+bB cC + dD Forward Rate= Reverse Rate U= Uprod - Ureact =(Eaf – Ear) Internal Energy Change @ V=const

The hydrogenation reaction has a large activation barrier Ea and is Sterically hindered and must go throw a tight transition state, So k is small and the rate is slow
Consider the gas phase(rxn path A) hydrogenation of ethylene to form ethane. This process requires H-H insertion into a C=C bond: a very tight transition state; high barrier and a low steric factor which mean the reaction is slow! C2H4(g) + H2(g) C2H6(g) (1) H-H H-H
Consider another path B with a lower activation barrier: heterogeneous hydrogenation on a Pt Catalyst C2H4(g) + H2(g)Pt(surface) C2H6(g) C2H4(g)+ H2(g) + Pt(surface) C2H4(ad) + H2(ad) (1) C2H4(ad) + H2(ad) C2H6(ad) (2) C2H6(ad) Pt(surface) C2H6(g) (3) Pt-Pt-Pt Pt-Pt-Pt

Enzyme Catalyzed Reaction The Enzyme plays the role of the surface and the kinetics can be modeled as a steady-state approximation Since the Enzyme/Substrate complex concentration ids nearly constant throughout the reaction
