Chemical Kinetics Flashcards
Sub title?
Rate constants and activation energy
What was the general idea?
Look at 1st order reaction at 2 temps to find 2 rate constants that can be used to find the activation energy
Beer-Lambert Law?
A=epsilonbc
A=absorbance
Epsilon= molar absorptivity
b=length of pathway
c=concentration
What color changes occur with phenolphthalein?
Clear —> Pink (Reacts with OH)–> Clear (in excess OH solution)
[P]=
[P(0)]e^(-kt)
Arrhenius equation:
k = Ae^(-Ea/(RT))
A=frequency factor
Slope=
k= log(absorbance) vs. time
Spectrophotometer
lambda=552 nm
1.999 when blank cuvette’s in
Status indicator should be set to transmittance
When taking the second reading for the chilled NaOH you should take the lower/higher of the two?
lower
