Rate of Reaction
|
a measure of the rate at which a reactant is used up or a product is formed.
|
|
Rate Unit
|
Moles per Liter per Second
(mol/LS) |
|
Reversable Reaction
|
one which can occur in both directions
|
|
order of reaction
|
determined from the exponents of the concentration terms in the rate equation
|
|
overall oreder
|
the sum of the exponents of those concentration terms in the rate equation
|
|
varying unit
|
rate constant
|
|
half-life (t 1/2)
|
the time required for half the concentration of the limiting reactant to be consumed.
|
|
integrated rate laws
|
equations which relate concentrations and time.
|
|
FIRST ORDER EQUATIONS
|
log([Ao]/[A])=kt/2.303
or ln([Ao]/[A])=kt |
|
Rate for FIRST ORDER EQUATIONS
|
Rate=k[A]
|
|
to find the Rate for Second Order Equations:
|
Rate=k[A]2
or Rate=k[A][B] |
|
to find the TIME for Second order reactions:
|
1/[A] - 1/[Ao] = kt
|
|
half-life for second order equations:
|
T1/2 = 1/k[Ao]
|
|
to find the Rate for Zero Order Equations
|
Rate=k[Ao]
|
|
half-life for zero order reactions:
|
t1/2 = [Ao]/2k
|
|
Reaction Quotient
|
Q= [C][D]
------ [A][B] Reaction Quotient = Products over Reactants. |
|
At equilibrium, the reaction quotient...
|
becomes a constant.
|
|
Law of Mass Action
|
when a reversible reaction has attained equillibrium, at a given temperature, the reaction quotient remains constant.
|
|
equilibrium constant
|
0.640
|
|
La Chateliev's Principle
|
if a stress is placed on a system at equalibrium, the equalibrium shifts to offset that stress.
|
|
Van't Hoff's Law
|
when the temperature of a system in equilibrium is raised, the equilibrium is displaced in such a way that the heat is absorbed.
|
|
Four ways to shift the equilibrium:
|
1. change the concentrations of the reactants or products.
2. change the pressure (gas only) 3. change the temperature 4. add a catalyst |
|
with INCREASED PRESSURE, equilibrium shifts to...
|
the side with the fewest moles of gas.
|
|
with DECREASED PRESSURE, equilibrium shifts to...
|
the side with the most moles of gas.
|
|
with ADDED REACTANT, the equilibrium shifts...
|
to the right.
|
|
with ADDED PRODUCT, the equilibrium shifts...
|
to the left.
|
|
a change in temperature changes...
|
the value of the equilibrium constant.
