Q

Temperature when switches from spontaneous to non-spontaneous?

A

T= ΔHrxn/ΔSrxn

if T < 0, then always spontaneous

A

Sum of all orders

17
Q

When is a rxn at equilibrium?

A

If ΔG or ΔS = 0

18
Q

When is the slope -k?

A

0 and 1st order rxns

19
Q

When is the slope k?

A

2nd order rxn

20
Q

How to know the overall rate law given mechanistic steps?

A

The slowest step determines the rate, therefore the rate law of the slowest elemental step

21
Q

An increase in what means a higher entropy?

A

Microstates
