New cards

What is Chemical Kinetics

The study of the rate of chemical reactions

2
New cards

What is Rate

A change in quantity with respect to time

3
New cards

What does the rate of a chemical reaction tell you

how fast reactants make products or how fast a reaction takes place.

4
New cards

How is the rate of a chemical reaction measured

in terms of how concentration of a reactant decreases or product in a given period of time

5
New cards

What is Average rate

the change in measured concentrations in any particular time period

6
New cards

What is Instantaneous rate

the change in concentration at any one particular time

7
New cards

How is Instantaneous rate determined

by taking the the slope of a line tangent to the curve at that particular point.

8
New cards

Polarimetry

measures the change in the degree of rotation of plane-polarized light caused by one of the components over time.

9
New cards

Spectrophotometry

measures the amount of light of a particular wavelength absorbed by one component over time.

10
New cards

Total Pressure

of a gas mixture is stoichiometrically related to partial pressures of the gases in the reaction.

11
New cards

How does the Temperature affect Chemical Reaction Rate

Increasing Temperature will increase the reaction rate.

12
New cards

How does the Concentration affect Chemical Reaction Rate

Increasing Concentration will increase the reaction rate

13
New cards

How does the Pressure affect Chemical Reaction Rate

Increasing Pressure will increase the reaction rate

14
New cards

How does the Volume affect Chemical Reaction Rate

Increasing Volume will decrease the reaction rate

15
New cards

How does the Catalyst affect Chemical Reaction Rate

Increasing Catalyst will increase the reaction rate.

16
New cards

How does the Nature of the reactant affect Chemical Reaction Rate

The physical properties of molecules have an important impact on the rate of the reactions. Gas>Liq>solid

17
New cards

What is Rate Law

a reaction depends on the concentration. It determines how the rate of a reaction changes with changing concentrations.Must always be determined experimentally

18
New cards

aAbB→

Rate=K[A]^m

19
New cards

2A+3B4C

Rate=K[A]^m[B]^n

20
New cards

If n=0 what is the order and rate law

Rate=K, Zero order No change

21
New cards

If n=1 what is the order and rate law

Rate=K[A]^1First order, Doubled:Rate=K[2]=2K, Tripled: Rate=K[3]=3K

22
New cards

If n=2 what is the order and rate law

Rate=K[A]^2Second order,doubled rate=K[2]^2

23
New cards

What relationship does integrated rate law show

Between concentration and time.

24
New cards

What is Half-Life

Defined as time required for the concentration of reactants fall into half of its initial concentration.

25
New cards

What is Zero Order:Integrated Rate Law

Integrated Rate Law:[A]t=-Kt+[A]0

26
New cards

What is Zero Order:Half-Life

,Half-Life: t1/2[A]02k

27
New cards

What is First Order:Integrated Rate Law

ln[A]t=-Kt+ln[A]0

28
New cards

What is First Order:Half-Life

t1/2=0.693K

29
New cards

What is Second Order:Integrated Rate Law

1[A]t=Kt+1[A]0

30
New cards

What is Second Order:Half-Life

t1/2=1K[A]0

31
New cards

What is the reaction mechanism

the series of individual chemical steps by which an overall chemical reaction occurs

32
New cards

What is Elementary steps

meaning that they cannot be broken down into simpler steps and that the molecules actually interact directly in this manner without any other steps

33
New cards

What is Molecularity

The number of reactant particles in an elementary step

34
New cards

1 molecule=

Unimolecular

35
New cards

2 molecules=

Bimolecular

36
New cards

3 molecules=

Termolecular

37
New cards

Substances that are products in an early mechanism step then reactants in a later step are called

reaction intermediates

38
New cards

Rate=K[A]^1=

Unimolecular

39
New cards

Rate=K[A]^2=

Bimolecular

40
New cards

Rate=K[A][B]=

Bimolecular

41
New cards

Rate=K[A]^3=

Termolecular

42
New cards

Rate=K[A]^2[B]=
