Lecture 19 Flashcards
Theoretical yield
amount of product that would result if the limiting reactant was used up and the reaction goes to completion
Actual yield
the amount of product actually obtained from a reaction
Percent yield (definition)
the efficiency of product recovery
Percent yield (formula)
actual/theoretical * 100
Kinetics
rate of a chemical reaction
equilibrium
when a reaction is complete
thermodynamics
likelihood of a reaction taking place and the nature of the energy of the reaction
Kinetics tell us about the _____ of reaction
mechanism
rate
how much a quantity changes in a given period of time
Speed formula
delta distance/ delta time
reaction rate
the rate at which a reactant becomes a product
Collision theory atomic view
collision frequency, energy and orientation
the reaction rate is proportional to the
effective collisions
Factors affecting rate
conc, temp, physical state, catalyst
Molecules must have enough energy to
overcome their mutual repulsions
