  1. Reaction Rates -What is meant by rate of reaction? -How do we calculate reaction rate?

  2. Collision theory • particles must COLLIDE before a reaction can take place • not all collisions lead to a reaction • reactants must possess at least a minimum amount of energy - ACTIVATION ENERGY • plus • particles must approach each other in a certain relative way - the STERIC EFFECT • According to collision theory, to increase the rate of reaction you therefore need... • more frequent collisions increase particle speed or • have more particles present • more successful collisions give particles more energy or • lower the activation energy

  3. Increasing Rate To increase the rate of a reaction we can: • INCREASE THE SURFACE AREA OF SOLIDS • INCREASE TEMPERATURE • SHINE LIGHT • ADD A CATALYST • INCREASE THE PRESSURE OF ANY GASES • INCREASE THE CONCENTRATION OF REACTANTS

  4. C CONCENTRATION A B TIME Reactions are fastest at the start and get slower as the reactants concentration drops. In a reaction such asA + 2B ——> Cthe concentrations might change as shown • Reactants (AandB) • Concentration decreases with time • Product (C) • Concentration increases with time • the steeper the curve the faster the • rate of the reaction • reactions start off quickly because of • the greater likelihood of collisions • reactions slow down with time as • there are fewer reactants to collide

  5. Rate of Reaction • The rate of reaction is the change in concentration of a reactant or product per unit time. • rate= • Units:mol dm-3 s-1 change in concentration of reactant or product time for the change to take place

  6. Concentration • Concentration in mol dm-3 is represented by square brackets. • [HCl] means the ‘concentration of HCl in mol dm-3’.

  7. Rate at this point in time Concn / mol dm-3 Y Time / s X Average rate • The equation gives an average rate of reaction over the entire time period. • Rate at a given time is measured using a graph. = Gradient of tangent = Y / X

  8. How to Draw a Tangent Line • Choose a point on the curve. • Adjust the angle of the ruler so that near the point it is equidistant from the curve on either side.

  9. Initial Rate • The initial rate of reaction is the change in concentration of reactant, or product, per unit time at the start of a reaction when t = 0. • The rate of reaction changes as the reaction proceeds.

  10. Measuring Rate from a Graph Sulphur dichloride, SO2Cl2, decomposes according to the equation: SO2Cl2 (g) SO2(g) + Cl2(g) The concentration of SO2Cl2 was measured over time. Draw a concentration – time graph and calculate the rate of reaction at t = 0 and t = 3000

  11. Measuring Rates Again 2H2O2(aq) 2H2O(l) + O2(g) Plot a concentration – time graph for this reaction. Calculate the initial rate, rate at t = 20 and t = 90

  12. Rate Orders and Rate Constant -What is the order of reaction? -What is the rate constant?

  13. Rate Orders • In a chemical reaction the concentration of each reactant can affect the overall reaction rate. • This effect is called the order of reaction. • For a reactant A: • Rate [A]x • Where x = order with respect to A

  14. Rate Orders • Zero order • The rate is unaffected by concentration. Rate [A]o • Any number to the power of zero = 1 • First order • Order is 1 with respect to B. Rate [B]1 • If [B] is increased by 1 then rate increases by 1 • Second order • Order is 2 with respect to C. Rate [C]2 • If [C] increases by 3 then rate increases by 32=9

  15. Rate Constant • Combining the rates from the previous slide from the reaction A + B + C  products gives us: rate [A]0 [B]1 [C]2 The rate constant, k, links the rate with the concentration, giving the equation: rate = k [B]1[C]2 (remember [A]0= 1)

  16. Overall Order • The overall order of the reaction is the sum of the individual orders. • For rate = k [B]1[C]2 • Overall order = 1 + 2 = 3 • The rate order comes from experimental results, not balanced equations!

  17. Units of Rate Constants • Units for k depend on the overall order.

  18. Rate Determining Steps -What affects the order of reactions?

  19. R.D.S • Some reactions occur as a series of separate steps. • Each step in the reaction has it’s own rate and rate constant. • The overall rate is governed by the slowest step. • This is the rate determining step (R.D.S.)

  20. RATE DETERMINING STEP THE REACTION BETWEEN PROPANONE AND IODINE Iodine and propanone CH3COCH3 + I2 CH3COCH2I + HI react in the presence of acid The rate equation is... r = k [CH3COCH3] [H+] Why do H+ ions appear in the rate equation? Why does I2 not appear in the rate equation?

  21. RATE DETERMINING STEP THE REACTION BETWEEN PROPANONE AND IODINE Iodine and propanone CH3COCH3 + I2 CH3COCH2I + HI react in the presence of acid The rate equation is... r = k [CH3COCH3] [H+] Why do H+ ions appear in The reaction is catalysed by acid the rate equation? [H+] affects the rate but is unchanged overall Why does I2 not appear The rate determining step doesn’t involve I2 in the rate equation?

  22. RATE DETERMINING STEP THE REACTION BETWEEN PROPANONE AND IODINE Iodine and propanone CH3COCH3 + I2 CH3COCH2I + HI react in the presence of acid The rate equation is... r = k [CH3COCH3] [H+] Why do H+ ions appear in The reaction is catalysed by acid the rate equation? [H+] affects the rate but is unchanged overall Why does I2 not appear The rate determining step doesn’t involve I2 in the rate equation? The slowest step of any multi-step reaction is known as the rate determining step and it is the species involved in this step that are found in the overall rate equation. Catalysts appear in the rate equation because they affect the rate but they do not appear in the stoichiometric equation because they remain chemically unchanged

  23. RATE DETERMINING STEP HYDROLYSIS OF HALOALKANES Haloalkanes (general formula RX) areRX + OH- ROH + X- hydrolysed by hydroxide ion to give alcohols. With many haloalkanes the rate equation is...r = k [RX][OH-] SECOND ORDER This is because both the RX and OH- must collide for a reaction to take place in ONE STEP

  24. RATE DETERMINING STEP HYDROLYSIS OF HALOALKANES Haloalkanes (general formula RX) areRX + OH- ROH + X- hydrolysed by hydroxide ion to give alcohols. With many haloalkanes the rate equation is...r = k [RX][OH-] SECOND ORDER This is because both the RX and OH- must collide for a reaction to take place in ONE STEP but with others it only depends on [RX]...r = k [RX] FIRST ORDER The reaction has taken place in TWO STEPS... - the first involves breaking an R-X bond i) RX R+ + X-Slow - the second step involves the two ions joining ii)R+ + OH- ROHFast The first step is slower as it involves bond breaking and energy has to be put in. The first order mechanism is favoured by tertiary haloalkanes because the hydroxide ion is hindered in its approach by alkyl groups if the mechanism involves the hydroxide ion and haloalkane colliding.

  25. RATE DETERMINING STEP The reaction H2O2 + 2H3O+ + 2I¯ I2 + 4H2O takes place in 3 steps Step 1 H2O2 + I¯ IO¯ + H2OSLOW Step 2 IO¯ + H3O+ HIO + H2OFAST Step 3 HIO + H3O+ + I¯ I2 + 2H2OFAST The rate determining step is STEP 1 as it is the slowest

  26. RATE DETERMINING STEP The reaction H2O2 + 2H3O+ + 2I¯ I2 + 4H2O takes place in 3 steps Step 1 H2O2 + I¯ IO¯ + H2OSLOW Step 2 IO¯ + H3O+ HIO + H2OFAST Step 3 HIO + H3O+ + I¯ I2 + 2H2OFAST The rate determining step is STEP 1 as it is the slowest The reaction 2N2O5 4NO2 + O2 takes place in 3 steps Step 1 N2O5 NO2 + NO3SLOW Step 2 NO2 + NO3 NO + NO2 + O2FAST Step 3 NO + NO3 2NO2from another Step 1FAST The rate determining step is STEP 1 rate = k [N2O5]

  27. R.D.S • If the reactant appears in the rate equation, that reactant is involved in the rate determining step. rate = k [NO2]2 The R.D.S involves two molecules of NO2 NO2 + NO2 Slow, R.D.S

  28. ORDER OF REACTION – GRAPHICAL DETERMINATION The order of reaction can be found by measuring the rate at different times during the reaction and plotting the rate against either concentration or time. The shape of the curve provides an indication of the order. PLOTTING RATE AGAINST CONCENTRATION RATE OF REACTION / mol dm-3 s-1 CONCENTRATION / mol dm-3
