|
Activated Complex
|
Temporary unstable arrangment of atoms that may form producs or may break apart to reform reactants
|
|
Activation energy
|
The minium amount of energy that reacting particles must have tro form the activated complex and lead to the reaction
|
|
Catalyst
|
Type of enzym;substance that increases the rate of the chemical reaction without itself being consumed in the reaction
|
|
Collision Theory
|
States that atoms, ions, and molecules must must collide in order to react
|
|
Complex Reaction
|
consits of two or more elementrary steps
|
|
Heterogeneous catalyst
|
existas in a phsical state diffrent thab that of the reaction that is catalyzes
|
|
Homogeneous Catalyst
|
A ccatalyst that exisits in the same physical state as the reaction it catalyzes
|
|
inhibitor
|
slows down reation rates
|
|
Instantaneous rate
|
rate of decompostion at a specific time can be determind by the slope
|
|
intermediate
|
in a complex reaction, is a substance produced in one elementary steps and consumed in a subsequent elementraey step
|
|
Method of initial rates
|
determains reaction order by comparing the inatial rates of a reaction carried out with varying reactant concentrarions.
|
|
rate-determining step
|
slowest of the elemtary step in a comlex reaction
