Q

Factors that affect reaction rate

Explain

A

~Concentration of reactants > effective collisions occur per unit time

~Temperature > speed up the movement of substance, increase chance of collisions

~ Presence of catalyst > A substance that can speed up the reaction, but chemically unchanged at the end of the reaction

~ Surface area > Increase chances of particles contact
~ Pressure (Gaseous reaction) – Increase the amount of particles in the same volume

Q

In kinetic term, Ea is ?

A

the minimum amount of energy which colliding particles need in order to react with each other

28

ΔH

A

The difference between energy level of the reactants and products = the amount of energy taken in or given out during reaction

29
Q

From the top of the curve to the products, going down the energy scale > ?

A

> Energy is given out as bonds are formed in products

Energy put in is less than energy given out > exothermic reaction

30

32
Q

Activation Energy (Ea)

A

Minimum amount of energy required for the reaction to start

The amount of energy put in to breaks these bonds

33
Q

Endothermic –

Exothermic –

A

Endothermic – energy taken in for reaction

Exothermic – reaction release energy

34
Q

_______ energy need to break strong bond; _______ energy need to break weak bond

A

More energy need to break strong bond; less energy need to break weak bond

35
Q

Energy is stored in________

A

intramolecular bond (covalent/ ionic/ metallic)

36
Q

Bonds can be __________ during chemical reactions

Energy is _________to break bond

A
  • rearranged

- required

37
Q

Why need energy?

A
  • Mechanical work e.g. muscle contraction
  • Generate light & electricity
  • Active transport, neurotransmitter
  • Synthesis complex biomolecules using simple precursors
38
Q

Kinetic

A

a movement of waves, electrons, atoms, molecules, substances, and objects

39
Q

Potential (Stored)

A

E.g. Chemical energy is the energy stored in the bonds of atoms & molecules

40
Q

What don’t appear in a heterogenous equilibrium constants

A

~ Solid concentration can’t change because it’s molecular weight and density are constant

~ Pure liquid concentration doesn’t vary, they don’t appear in the equilibrium expressions

to make qualitative judgment about the reaction, if the mixture is mostly products or mostly reactants

45
Q

Le Chatelier’s Principle for changes in pressure

A
  • Changes in Volume of Gaseous Equilibrium Systems

Q

How to set up the dynamic equilibrium
