1 Rate of Reaction and Chemical Equilibrium

2 2 Collision Theory Molecules must collide to react Effective collisions lead to products being formed Ineffective collisions do not form products Reactants will form products if they collide with adequate kinetic energy Reactants will bounce apart if they do not have adequate kinetic energy

3 3 A) Two BrNO molecules approach each other at high speed B) The collision occurs. C) The energy of the collision causes Br-N bonds to break and Br-Br bonds to form. D) The products: one Br 2 and two NO molecules.

4 4 Reaction progress of two BrNO molecules. Activation Energy Activation Energy: The minimum amount of energy particles must have in order to react Activated complex: Reactants that have attained the activation energy level. Unstable with short lifetime ~ 10 -13 s Sometimes called transition state

5 5 Factors Affecting Reaction Rate TemperatureConcentration Particle Size Catalyst

6 6 Comparison of the activation energies for an uncatalyzed reaction and for the same reaction with a catalyst present.

7 The relationship between the rate of a reaction and the concentration of one reactant is determined experimentally. A series of experiments reveals how the concentration of each reactant affects the reaction rate. An equation that relates reaction rate and concentrations of reactants is called the rate law for the reaction. Rate Laws for Reactions Chapter 17 Section 2 Reaction Rate It is applicable for a specific reaction at a given temperature.

8 The general form for the rate law is given by the following equation where A and B are reactants: R = k[A] n [B] m The rate law is applicable for a specific reaction at a given set of conditions and must be determined from experimental data. The power to which a reactant concentration is raised is called the order in that reactant. The value of n is said to be the order of the reaction with respect to [A], so the reaction is said to be “nth order in A.” Rate Laws for Reactions, continued Using the Rate Law Chapter 17 Section 2 Reaction Rate The value of k usually increases as the temperature increases, but the relationship between reaction rate and concentration almost always remains unchanged.

9 An order of one for a reactant means that the reaction rate is directly proportional to the concentration of that reactant. An order of two means that the reaction rate is directly proportional to the square of the reactant. An order of zero means that the rate does not depend on the concentration of the reactant, as long as some of the reactant is present. Rate Laws for Reactions, continued Using the Rate Law, continued Chapter 17 Section 2 Reaction Rate

10 The sum of all of the reactant orders is called the order of the reaction, or overall order. Rate Laws for Reactions, continued Using the Rate Law, continued Chapter 17 Section 2 Reaction Rate NO 2 (g) + CO(g)NO(g) + CO 2 (g) R = k[NO 2 ] 2 second order in NO 2 zero order in CO second order overall The orders in the rate law may or may not match the coefficients in the balanced equation.

11 The specific rate constant (k) is the proportionality constant relating the rate of the reaction to the concentrations of reactants. 1.Once the reaction orders (powers) are known, the value of k must be determined from experimental data. 2.The value of k is for a specific reaction; k has a different value for other reactions, even at the same conditions. Rate Laws for Reactions, continued Specific Rate Constant Chapter 17 Section 2 Reaction Rate

12 3.The units of k depend on the overall order of the reaction. 4.The value of k does not change for different concentrations of reactants or products. So, the value of k for a reaction remains the same throughout the reaction and does not change with time. Rate Laws for Reactions, continued Specific Rate Constant, continued Chapter 17 Section 2 Reaction Rate

13 5.The value of k is for the reaction at a specific temperature; if we increase the temperature of the reaction, the value of k increases. 6.The value of k changes (becomes larger) if a catalyst is present. Rate Laws for Reactions, continued Specific Rate Constant, continued Chapter 17 Section 2 Reaction Rate

21 21 Catalysts & Inhibitors Catalysts increase the rate of a chemical reaction without being used up in the reaction –Permit the reaction to occur with lower activation energy than normal Pt Pt 2H 2 (g) + O 2 (g)  2H 2 O(l) –Your body makes extensive use of catalysts or enzymes to allow bodily functions to progress rapidly Inhibitors are substances that interfere with the action of a catalyst –Poisons the catalyst

22 22 The amount of the substance in the vapor state becomes constant and reaches equilibrium How would we reverse this process?

23 23 Reversible Reactions A reversible reaction is one in which the conversion of reactants to products and the conversion of products to reactants occur simultaneously. When the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal, the reaction has reached a state of balance called chemical equilibrium. At chemical equilibrium, no net change occurs in the actual amounts of the components of the system. The relative concentrations of the reactants and products at equilibrium constitute the equilibrium position of a reaction.

24 24 Reversible Reactions At equilibrium, all three types of molecules are present. SO 2 and O 2 react to give SO 3 SO 3 decomposes to SO 2 and O 2
