Kinetics The study of reaction rates – the speed at which reactants are converted to products. The study of reaction rates – the speed at which reactants are converted to products. Explosions happen in seconds- very fast. Explosions happen in seconds- very fast. Coal (carbon) will turn into diamond eventually. Coal (carbon) will turn into diamond eventually. Spontaneous reactions are reactions that will happen but we can’t tell how fast. Spontaneous reactions are reactions that will happen but we can’t tell how fast. Kinetics is very important because it allows us to manipulate and control reactions. Kinetics is very important because it allows us to manipulate and control reactions.

Factors that affect Reaction Rate: 1. Temperature Hot = fast Cold = slowHot = fast Cold = slow 2. Concentration of Reactants more concentrated = fastermore concentrated = faster 3. Physical conditions of reactants. more surface area = fastermore surface area = faster 4. Presence of a Catalyst – increases rate without being used up increases rate without being used up
5
Reaction Rate The change in concentration of a reactant or a product per unit of time. Rates decrease with time Typically rates are expressed as positive values Instantaneous rate can be determined by finding the slop of a line tangent to a point representing a particular time

Reaction Rate - “speed of the reaction” Rate = Conc. of A at t 2 Conc. of A at t 1 t 2 t 1 Rate = Conc. of A at t 2 Conc. of A at t 1 t 2 t 1 Rate = [A] D t Rate = [A] D t Units: Change in concentration per time Units: Change in concentration per time For this reaction For this reaction N 2 + 3H 2 2NH 3 N 2 + 3H 2 2NH 3

Find the Instantaneous rate of disappearance: In order to find the instantaneous rate of disappearance at time 0, a tangent line was drawn and the following information was obtained: the concentration of the unknown changed from 0.100 M to 0.060 M from 0 seconds to 200 seconds. What is the instantaneous rate of disappearance at time 0? 2.0 x 10 -4 M/s
14
Reaction Rates and Stoichiometry Remember, the rate of disappearance is a slope and the rate of appearance is a + slope Remember, the rate of disappearance is a slope and the rate of appearance is a + slope For general equation: For general equation: aA + bB cC + dD aA + bB cC + dD General rate equation: General rate equation: Rate = -1[A] = -1[B] = 1[C] = 1∆[D] a t b t c t d∆t
15
Defining Rate We can define rate in terms of the disappearance of the reactant or in terms of the rate of appearance of the product. We can define rate in terms of the disappearance of the reactant or in terms of the rate of appearance of the product. In our example In our example N 2 + 3H 2 2NH 3 -[N 2 ] = -[H 2 ] = [NH 3 ] t 3 t 2 t -[N 2 ] = -[H 2 ] = [NH 3 ] t 3 t 2 t
16
Practice How is the rate of disappearance of ozone related to the rate of appearance of oxygen in the following equation: 2O 3 3O 2 ? If the rate of appearance of O 2, is 6.0x10 -5 M/s at a particular instant, what is the value of the rate of disappearance of O 3 at this same time? 4.0x10 -5 M/s
17
The decomposition of N 2 O 5 proceeds according to the following equation: 2N 2 O 5 4NO 2 + O 2 If the rate of decomposition of N 2 O 5 at a particular instant in a reaction vessel is 4.2x10 -7 M/s, what is the rate of appearance of NO 2 ? O 2 ? NO 2 = 8.4x10 -7 M/s O 2 = 2.1 x 10 -7 M/s
18
Rate Laws To study the rate of a reaction and determine the rate law, a series of experiments must be done varying the initial concentrations of reactants. This is called the Initial rate method. The products do not appear in the rate law because we are only concerned with the very start of the experiment where conc. of reactants are carefully chosen.
19
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. 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. aA + bB cC + dD aA + bB cC + dD Rate = k [A] x [B] y } The rate law expression Rate = k [A] x [B] y } The rate law expression k is the rate constant (temperature dependent) k is the rate constant (temperature dependent) Units of k vary Units of k vary x and y are integers, usually 0, 1 or 2 x and y are integers, usually 0, 1 or 2 reaction is x th order in A, reaction is y th order in B reaction is x th order in A, reaction is y th order in B reaction is (x +y) th order overall reaction is (x +y) th order overall
20
F 2 (g) + 2ClO 2 (g) 2FClO 2 (g) rate = k [F 2 ] x [ClO 2 ] y Initial [ ] Double [F 2 ] with [ClO 2 ] constant: rate doubles Quadruple [ClO 2 ] with [F 2 ] constant: rate quadruples Therefore, rate law is: rate = k [F 2 ] 1 [ClO 2 ] 1 We say, “first order with respect to F 2, first order with respect to ClO 2, and 2nd order overall” (All readings recorded at same temp.)
21
1. Rate laws are always determined experimentally. 2. Reaction order is always defined in terms of reactant (not product) concentrations. 3. The order of a reactant is not related to the stoichiometric coefficient of the reactant in the balanced chemical equation. Rate Laws - Key Points F 2 (g) + 2ClO 2 (g) 2FClO 2 (g) rate = k [F 2 ] 1 [ClO 2 ] 1 4. Once you obtain the Rate Law and the value of k, you can calculate the rate of reaction for any set of concentrations.

Types of Rate Laws Differential Rate Law – describes how rate depends on concentration Rate = k [A] x [B] y Integrated Rate Law – describes how concentration depends on time For each type of differential rate law, there is an integrated rate law and vise versa. We can use these laws to help us better understand reaction mechanisms
28
Integrated Rate Law Equations allow us to: 1. Determine the concentration of reactant remaining at any time after the reaction has started. 2. Determine the time required for a fraction of a sample to react. 3. Determine the time for a reactant concentration to fall to a certain level. 4. Verify whether a reaction is first order and determine the rate constant.
