Document Summary

If ax = n, then x = logan ao = 1 or log 1 = 0. M log mn = log m + log n log = log m log n. You are also expected to know how to interpret or predict the shape of some graphs. Chemical kinetics: concentration of reactants, state of the reactants (solids, pressure of reactants (gases, temperature, catalyst. Thermodynamics gives the energy change and the extent (chemical equilibrium) of a chemical reaction. The two are totally independent of each other. The area of chemistry that concerns reaction rates is called chemical kinetics. Chemical kinetics gives us important information of how a chemical reaction takes place in the molecular world. We called it the mechanism of a chemical reaction which we will see later. A graph of the concentration of no2, no and o2 plotted against time: Change in amount (or concentration ) of substance a. Concentration of a at t2 concentration of a at t1.
