What is Kinetics ? • Analysis of reaction mechanisms on the molecular scale • Derivation of rate expressions • Design and analysis of experiments to test rate equations and derive kinetic parameters • Theoretical prediction of rate constants • How can we improve it?
Elementary steps Discuss examples of elementary steps! A reaction is elementary if it cannot be split up in further steps. An elementary reaction proceeds exactly as expressed by the reaction equation. A reaction mechanism is a sequence of elementary steps.
Free Energy and Entropy Equilibrium: • G = 0 • Free energy: minimum • Entropy: maximum
Free Energy and Entropy Reaction: G : 0 • free energy: > minimum • entropy: < maximum Thermodynamics Kinetics

Power Rate Laws Parametrization of the rate: Reaction Order Example:
Equilibrium Constant and Free Energy - G° / RT - (H°-T S°) / RT K = e = e G° = standard Gibbs energy of reaction= H° - TS° Van 't Hoff equation: ` H° = standard reaction enthalpy S° = Standard reaction entropy
Temperature dependence of the rate constant Arrhenius equation: k = v e - Eact / RT Eact = activation energy v = preexponential factor E Eact reactants products reaction parameter
Temperature Dependence of the Rate d [AB] r = = k [A] [B] d t Arrhenius: - Eact /RT k = v e ln k = ln v Eact / RT ln k 1000 / T
