1. Relative Rates of Reaction If NO2 formed at 4 mol/m3/s (r NO2= 4 mol/m3/s), what is the rate of formation of NO?

1. Relative Rates of Reaction The Reaction: is carried out in a reactor. If at a particular point, the rate of disappearance of A is 10 mol/dm3/s, what are the rates of B and C? EXERCISE

1. Relative Rates of Reaction The relative rates are Given, the rate of disappearance of A, -rA, is 10mol/dm3/s Thus, solving the rates of B & C; r A= -10 mol/dm3/s

Rate law is a kinetic expression that gives the relationship between reaction rate, -rA, and concentration. 2. Reaction Order & Rate Law The reaction rate (rate of disappearance) depends on temperature and composition. It can be written as the product of reaction rate constant, kAand a function of concentrations (activities) of the reactants involved in the reaction:

Rate law is a kinetic expression that gives the relationship between reaction rate, -rA, and concentration. 2. Reaction Order & Rate Law For reaction in which the stoichiometric coefficient is 1 for ALL species: we shall delete the subscript on the specific reaction rate, (e.g.; A in kA) to let

2.1 Power Law Models & Elementary Rate Laws Power Law Model: The rxn is 𝛂 order wrt reactant A AND The rxn is 𝛃 order wrt reactant B The overall order of the reaction, n;

2.1 Power Law Models & Elementary Rate Laws The unit of the specific reaction, k, will vary with the order of reaction. Products Zero order (n=0) First order (n=1) Second order (n=2) Third order (n=3)

2.1 Power Law Models & Elementary Rate Laws Elementary reaction: a chemical reaction in which one or more of the chemical species react directly to form products in a single reaction step and with a single transition state. Elementary rate law: The rxn is said to follow the elementary rate law if the stoichiometic coefficients are IDENTICAL to the reaction order of each species. Products Unimolecular reaction Products Bimolecular reaction Non-elementary rxn But follows the elementary rate law!

Examples of Reaction Rate Laws

2.2 Non-Elementary Rate Laws Non-elementary rate laws: reactions that do not follow simple rate laws (power rate laws). Example 1: Homogeneous Rxn The kinetic rate law is: Rxn order: first order wrt to CO, three-halves order wrt Cl2, five-halves order overall. Gas phase synthesis of phosgene

2.2 Non-Elementary Rate Laws Gas-solid catalyzed rxn: Hydrodemethylation of toluene (T) Example 2: Heterogeneous Rxn The rate of disappearance of toluene per mass of catalyst is: where KB & KT is the adsorption constants. In terms of partial pressure rather than concentrations

2.3 Reversible Reactions ⇌ For reversible rxn, all rate laws must reduce to the thermodynamic relationship relating the reacting species concentrations at equilibrium. Thermodynamic Equilibrium Relationship

2.3 Reversible Reactions EXAMPLE: combination rxn of 2 mol of benzene to form 1 mol H2 and 1 mol diphenyl. kB ⇌ k-B kB ⇌ symbolically; k-B The rate of disappearance of benzene; OR The reverse rxnbtweendiphenyl & hydrogen; k-B ⇌ The rate of formation of benzene (in reverse direction);

2.3 Reversible Reactions The net rate of formation of benzene is; Multiplying both sides by -1, we obtain the rate law of disappearance of benzene, -rB

2.3 Reversible Reactions Replacing the ratio of the reverse & forward rate law constant by equilibrium constants; where Concentration equilibrium constant

3. The Reaction Rate Constant Arrhenius equation A= preexponential factor or frequency factor E= activation energy, J/mol or cal/mol R=gas constant = 8.314 J/mol-K = 1.987 cal/mol-K T= absolute temperature, K -no of collision -probability that the collision will result in a reaction

3. The Reaction Rate Constant Activation energy is a measure of the minimum energy that the reacting molecules must have in order for the reaction to occur (energy required to reach transition state). Transition state - no of collision that result in a rxn -total no of collision Energy barier probability that - the collision will result in a rxn Reactants Products

3. The Reaction Rate Constant Taking a natural logarithm; The larger the activation energy, the more temperature sensitive k and thus the reaction rate. E ⬆, k ⬆, -r = ⬆
