Rate equations Flashcards
Zero order graph
rate is unaffected by concentration
First order graph
As concentration changes by a factor, rate changes by the same factor
second order graph
as concentration changes by a factor rate changes by the factor squared
rate equation
rate=K[X]^[Y]^
^ equals their orders
Factor change in rate equation
factor change in A^order X factor change in B^order
catalyst and intermediate in rate equations
catalyst- appears in rate equation but not overall equation
used in 1 step and then reformed in another
intermediate- made in one step and then used in another. doesnt appear in rate equation or overall
Arrhenius equation to calculate K or A
Arrhenius constant to calculate activation energy or temperature
Arrhenius equation into straight line equations
