  2. Section 16.1 A Model for Reaction Rates • Calculate average rates of chemical reactions from experimental data. • Relate rates of chemical reactions to collisions between reacting particles. energy: the ability to do work or produce heat; it exists in two basic forms: potential energy and kinetic energy Section 16-1

  3. Section 16.1 A Model for Reaction Rates (cont.) reaction rate collision theory activated complex activation energy Collision theory is the key to understanding why some reactions are faster than others. Section 16-1

  4. Expressing Reaction Rates • The reaction rateof a chemical reaction is stated as the change in concentration of a reactant or product per unit of time. Section 16-1

  5. Expressing Reaction Rates (cont.) • Reaction rates are determined experimentally. Section 16-1

  6. Collision Theory • Collision theorystates that atoms, ions, and molecules must collide in order to react. Section 16-1

  7. Collision Theory (cont.) • An activated complex is a temporary, unstable arrangement of atoms in which old bonds are breaking and new bonds are forming. Section 16-1

  8. Collision Theory (cont.) • The minimum amount of energy that reacting particles must have to form the activated complex and lead to a reaction is called the activation energy. • High activation energy means that few collisions have the required energy and the reaction rate is slow. Section 16-1

  11. Collision Theory (cont.) Section 16-1

  12. Spontaneity and Reaction Rate • Are more spontaneous reactions faster than less spontaneous reactions? • ΔG indicates only the natural tendency for a reaction to proceed—it does not affect the rate of a chemical reaction. Section 16-1

B.Reacting substances must be in an exothermic reaction. C.Reacting substances must collide in the correct orientation.

  16. Section 16.2 Factors Affecting Reaction Rates • Identify factors that affect the rates of chemical reactions. concentration: a quantitative measure of the amount of solute in a given amount of solvent or solution • Explain the role of a catalyst. catalyst inhibitor heterogeneous catalyst homogeneous catalyst Factors such as reactivity, concentration, temperature, surface area, and catalysts affect the rate of a chemical reaction. Section 16-2

  17. The Nature of Reactants • Some substances react more readily than others. Section 16-2

  18. Concentration • Chemists change reaction rates by changing concentrations of reactants. • When concentrations are increased, more molecules are available to collide, and therefore collisions occur more frequently. Section 16-2

  19. Surface Area • Greater surface area allows particles to collide with many more particles per unit of time. • For the same mass, many small particles have more surface area than one large particle. • Reaction rate increases with increasing surface area. Section 16-2

  20. Temperature • Increasing temperature generally increases reaction rate. • Increasing temperature increases the kinetic energy of the particles. • Reacting particles collide more frequently at higher temperatures. Section 16-2

  21. Temperature (cont.) • High-energy collisions are more frequent at a higher temperature. • As temperature increases, reaction rate increases. Section 16-2

  22. Temperature (cont.) Section 16-2

  23. Catalysts and Inhibitors • A catalystis a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed in the reaction. • An inhibitoris a substance that slows or prevents a reaction. Section 16-2

  24. Catalysts and Inhibitors (cont.) • Catalysts lower the activation energy. • Low activation energy means more collisions between particles have sufficient energy to react. Section 16-2

  25. Catalysts and Inhibitors (cont.) • A heterogeneous catalyst exists in a physical state different than that of the reaction it catalyzes. • A homogeneous catalyst exists in the same physical state as the reaction it catalyzes. Section 16-2

  26. A B C D Section 16.2 Assessment Which of the following generally does not increase the rate of a chemical reaction? A.increasing concentration B.adding a catalyst C.adding an inhibitor D.increasing temperature Section 16-2

  27. A B C D Section 16.2 Assessment High-energy particle collisions are more frequent: A.when an inhibitor is present B.when temperature is decreased C.when activation energy is higher D.when temperature is increased Section 16-2

  28. End of Section 16-2

  29. Section 16.3 Reaction Rate Laws • Express the relationship between reaction rate and concentration. reactant: the starting substance in a chemical reaction • Determine reaction orders using the method of initial rates. rate law specific rate constant reaction order method of initial rates The reaction rate law is an experimentally determined mathematical relationship that relates the speed of a reaction to the concentrations of the reactants. Section 16-3

  30. Writing Reaction Rate Laws • A rate lawexpresses the relationship between the rate of a chemical reaction and the concentration of the reactants. • Rate = k[A] where [A] is the concentration and k is a constant. Section 16-3

  31. Writing Reaction Rate Laws (cont.) • The symbol k is the specific rate constant, a numerical value that relates the reaction rate and the concentrations of reactants at a given temperature. • The specific rate constant is unique for every reaction. Section 16-3

  32. Writing Reaction Rate Laws (cont.) • The reaction order for a reactant defines how the rate is affected by the concentration of that reactant. • Rate = k[H2O2] • The reaction is first order, so the rate changes in the same proportion the concentration of H2O2 changes. Section 16-3

  33. Writing Reaction Rate Laws (cont.) • The General Rate Law • Rate = k[A]m[B]n • Rate = k[NO]2[H2] • If H2 is doubled, the rate doubles. • If NO is doubled, the rate quadruples because 22 = 4. • First-order H2, second-order NO, third-order overall Section 16-3

  34. Determining Reaction Order • The method of initial rates determines reaction order by comparing the initial rates of a reaction carried out with varying reactant concentrations. • Initial rate measures how fast the reaction proceeds at the moment when reactants are mixed. Section 16-3

  35. Determining Reaction Order (cont.) Section 16-3

  36. Determining Reaction Order (cont.) • Doubling [A] doubles the reaction rate, so [A] is first order. • Doubling [B] quadruples the reaction rate, so [B] is second order. • Rate = k[A][B]2 Section 16-3

  40. Section 16.4 Instantaneous Reaction Rates and Reaction Mechanisms • Calculate instantaneous rates of chemical reactions. • Understand that many chemical reactions occur in steps. • Relate the instantaneous rate of a complex reaction to its reaction mechanism. decomposition reaction: a chemical reaction that occurs when a single compound breaks down into two or more elements or new compounds Section 16-4

  41. Section 16.4 Instantaneous Reaction Rates and Reaction Mechanisms (cont.) instantaneous rate complex reaction reaction mechanism intermediate rate-determining step The slowest step in a sequence of steps determines the rate of the overall chemical reaction. Section 16-4

  42. Instantaneous Reaction Rates • This figure shows the concentration of H2O2 over time during the decomposition reaction 2H2O2(aq) → 2H2O(l) + O2(g). • The instantaneous rate is the slope of the straight line tangent to the curve at the specific time. Section 16-4

  43. Instantaneous Reaction Rates (cont.) • Instantaneous rate can be calculated if the concentrations are known, the temperature is known, and the experimentally determined rate law and specific rate constant at that temperature are known. • 2N2O5(g) → 4NO2(g) + O2(g) • Rate = k[N2O5] • k = 1.0 × 10–5 s–1 and [N2O5] = 0.350 mol/L • Rate = (1.0 × 10–5 s–1)(0.350 mol/L) = 3.5 × 10–6 mol/(L•s) Section 16-4

  44. Reaction Mechanisms • Most chemical reactions consist of sequences of two or more simpler reactions. • Each step is called an elementary step. • A complex reaction contains two or more elementary steps. Section 16-4

  45. Reaction Mechanisms (cont.) • A reaction mechanism is the complete sequence of elementary steps that makes up a complex reaction. • An intermediateis a substance produced in one of the elementary steps and consumed in a subsequent elementary step. • Intermediates do not appear in the net chemical equation.
