Document Summary
Unit 7 chemical kinetics: thermodynamics vs kinetics, reaction rates and stoichiometry. For the reaction 2a + b 2c. the concentration of c increases from 0 m to 3. 2 x 10^2m in one second. what is the rate of the change in b in m/s? a) C/ t = 3. 2+10^2m/1s: average rates and instantaneous rates, rate law and concentration and a rate constant. Rate = k[a] n [b] n : the rate of a reaction is dependent on the concentration of reactants, a + b c. N and m are referred to as the order of the reaction. The rate constant k is different for different reactions k, n, and m are experimentally determined. Determine the rate law and rate constant for this reaction at the temperature of these experiments. Integrated rate laws are used to determine the concentration of products at any point during the reaction: zero order integrated rate law.
