Document Summary
Reaction rate: reaction rate: change in concentration over change in time, a b. Rate of disappearance of a: - [a]/ t: 2n2o5 4no2 + o2. (- [n2o5]/ t) = ( [no2]/ t) = 1/1( [o2]/ t: we cannot calculate a single number that expresses the rate for the entire reaction. Instead, we can calculate the average rate over a given interval of time (final-initial), or the instantaneous rate at a given instant in time (slope of tangent at specific time). Collision theory: reactions occur when molecules collide with sufficient kinetic energy to break chemical bonds. The reaction then proceeds and the activated complex splits into the products. Chemical kinetics: study of rate of change of concentrations of substances involved in chemical reactions. Reaction rate: how rapidly a reaction occurs; related to rates of change in concentration of reactants and products over time.
