kinetic and rate Flashcards
activation energy
is the min energy required for the reaction to occurs
increasing concentration
- increase in number of reactant partical in given volume
- frequency increase
- more successful collision in given time
increase in surface area
increase in number of partical
- increase in frequency collision
more successful collision
increase the pressure
increasing the number of molecules in the same volume
- a high volume=lower pressure
a low volume = high pressue
increasing the tempeture
- partical has a higher KE energy
- more partical with energy greater activiation energy
- many more successful collision
maxwell boltzmann distrubtion features:
- no partical with zero energy
- area under curve = total number of particales
-peak = most porbable energy - ## only partical with energy greater than or equal to Ea can ract when collsion occurs
what happens when maxwell curve at lower temperture
- peak goes up ,shift to the left hand side , finshes under the orginal
- no of partical Ea=lower
value of most porable =lower
no of most porable energy=higher
mean energy = higher
area = same
maxwell distrubution curve at higher temperture
- peak is lower ,shift hand side ,finished higher the orginal
- no. of Ea = higher
- most porable energy=high
- no.of moleules with most porable energy = lower
- no. of mean energy molcules= lower
area= same
catalyst and how it work
- is a substance that increase the rate of reaction but its unchanged
- provides an alternative route whoch lower activation energy
increasing the number of molecules
same
- Emp
- Mean energy
- area
increases
- no of molcules with Ea
- no. of molecules with Emp
- molecules with mean energy
adding a catalyst
- increases the no. of mlecules with energy greater or equal to activation energy
