Q

H2(g) + I2(g) -> 2HI(g)

A
  • Rate = -(delta[H2]/(delt(t))) = -([H2]t2-[H2t1])/t2-t1
    - Rate = -(delta[I2])/(delta(t))
    - the hydrogen concentration at t1 and t2 divided by the change in time
    - the reaction rate is defined as the negative of the change in concentration divided by the change in time

Q

Why is the reaction rate defined as negative?

A
  • it is negative because the initial concentration of the reactants decreases as the reaction proceeds
    - the change in the concentration of a reactant is negative
    - the negative sign in the equation makes the overall rate positive(this is by convention that reaction rates are reported as positive quantities)

Q

Rate with respect to the product = +(1/2)(delta[HI]/delta(t))

A
  • the ½ is because 1 mol of H reacts with 1 mol of I2
    - ½ is related to stoichiometry of the reaction
    - notice with respect to the product there is no – coefficient
    - the rate of product is + as more product is created
    - if 100 I2 react per second then 200 HI molecules form per second

45
Q

the rates of chemical reactions are highly sensitive to

A

temperature

46
Q

an increase in temperature results in an increase in k

A

rate = k[A]^n

47
Q

Arrhenius equation

A

k = A(e)^(-E/(RT))

		- E = activation energy
		- A = frequency factor
		- e = exponential factor
		- R = 8.314 J/mol*K
  • activation energy Ea – an energy barrier or hump that must be surmounted for reactants to be transformed into products
    - frequency factor(A) – the number of times that the reactants approach the activation barrier per unit time
48
Q

activation state or transition state

A

a molecule must go through a high energy intermediate state to go from reactant to product

49
Q

a reaction requires some energy put in before

A

it can go and become exothermic

50
Q

the higher the activation energy the

A

slower the reaction rate at a given temperature

51
Q

exponential factor

A

a number between 0 and 1 that represents the fraction of molecules that have enough energy to make it over the activation barrier on a given approach

	- 10^9/s would be 10^-7 at a certain temperature
		- 10^9/2 * 10^-7 = 10^2/s
52
Q

Exponential factor =

A

e^(-Ea/RT)

53
Q

A

the closer to 1 the easier it is for molecules to surpass the barrier

54
Q

the number of time that the reactants approach the activation barrier

55
Q

      y = mx + b
57

58
Q

2 point Arrhenius plot

A

Ln (k2/k1) = Ea/R(1/T1 – 1/T2)

59
Q

collision model

A

a chemical reaction occurs after sufficiently energetic collision between two reactant molecules

this implies that the frequency factor should be the number of collisions per second but the frequency factors tend to be smaller

60
Q

the frequency factor can be split into two parts

A
  • k = (p)(z)e^(-Ea/RT)
    - p = orientation factor
    - z = collision frequency
61
Q

collision frequency(z)

A

the number of collisions that occur per unit time

- calculate for a gas phase reaction from the pressure of the gasses and the temperature of the reaction mixture

62
Q

orientation factor(p)

A

even with enough frequency and energy molecules must be properly aligned to cause a reaction so the proper bonds can break and form
- p = 0.16 means 16 out of every 100 sufficiently energetic collisions are actually forming products

63
Q

Harpoon mechanism

A

K can pass an electron to Br without actually colliding.

- p = 4.8 and the Br “reels” the electron in via columbic charges

64
Q

2 criteria for a chemical reaction to occur:

A

sufficient energy AND the correct orientation

65
Q

when we write out a chemical reaction we typically

A

write out the overall reaction not the individual steps

66
Q

H2(g) + 2ICl(g) -> 2HCl + I2

Really its this:

A
  • Step 1: H2(g) + ICl(g) _> HI(g) + HCl(g)

- Step 2: HI(g) + ICl(g) -> HCl(g) + I2(g)

67
Q

reaction mechanism

A

the series of initial chemical steps by which an overall chemical reaction occurs
- step 1 + step 2 + step 3 all written out

68
Q

elementary step

A

each individual step in a reaction mechanism

		- can not be broken down into simpler steps
		- literally occur as written
69
Q

reaction intermediate

A

a molecule that forms in one elementary step and is consumed in another
- may not be in the final product at all

70
Q

molecularity

A

the number of reactant particles involved in an elementary step

71
Q

most common types of molecularity

A
  • unimolecular - A-> products
  • bimolecular - A + B -> products
  • termolecular - A + B + C -> products
72
Q

termolecular

A

A + B + C -> products

elementary step in which 3 reactant particles collide and very rare due to very low probability of all 3 particles colliding at the same time

73
Q

rate law of elementary steps:

A + B -> products

A

Rate = k[A][B]

74
Q

rate law of elementary steps:

A + A -> products

A

Rate = k[A]^2

75
Q

rate law of elementary steps:

A -> products

A

Rate = k[A]

76
Q

rate law of elementary steps:

A + A + A

A

rate = k[A]^3

77
Q

rate law of elementary steps:

A + A + B

A

rate = k[A]^2[B]

78
Q

rate law of elementary steps:

A + B + C

A

rate = k[A][B][C]

79
Q

rate – determining step

A

the elementary step that is much slower than the other steps

	- a freeway with one lane open
	- limits the overall rate of the reaction and subsequently determines the rate law for the overall reaction
80
Q

to validate a proposed mechanism(mechanisms can not be proven!)

A
  • the elementary steps in the mechanism must sum to the overall reaction
    - the rate law predicted by the mechanism must be consistent with the experimentally observed rate law
81
Q
  • if the mechanism has a fast initial step then some other subsequent step in the mechanism will be the rate limiting step
A
  • the rate law predicted by the rate limiting step may contain reaction intermediates
82
Q
  • if the first step is fast the products may build up and begin reacting with each other until they reach an equilibrium indicated by a double arrow
A

reactants products

		- 2NO(g)  H2N2(g)   fast
		- H2(g) + N2O2(g) -> H2O(g) + N2O(g) slow(rate limiting)
		- N2O(g) + H2(g) -> N2(g) + H2O(g) fast
		- Overall:  2H2(g) + 2NO(g) -> 2H2O(g) + N2(g)
  • to be valid:
    - steps must sum to the overall reaction(true)
    - rate law predicted by the mechanism must be consistent with the experimentally observed law(fails this)
    - rate law contains an intermediate(N2O2) and the observed law did not
    - rate = k2[H2][N2O2]
    - experimentally observed = k[H2][NO]^2
    - because of the intermediate equilibrium in the first step we can express the concentration of the intermediate in terms of the reactants of the overall equation
    - k1[NO]^2 = k-1[N2O2]
    - [N2O2] = k1/k-1[NO]^2
    - rate = k2[H2][N2O2]
    = k2H2[NO]^2
    = (k2k1)/k-1[H2][NO]^2
    Rate = k[H2][NO]^2
83
