Why Study Kinetics?

• We can control the reaction conditions to

obtain product as quickly and economically

as possible

• To understand reaction mechanisms – a

study of kinetics sheds light on how a

reaction proceeds

© 2014 W. W. Norton Co., Inc.

Factors that control reaction kinetics

• Chemical makeup of reactants and products

• Concentration of reactants

• Temperature

• Catalysts

• Surface area

Effect of Concentration on

Reaction Rates

A typical plot of reactant concentration versus time. The

rate depends on the number of molecular collisions

which depends on the concentration of reactants.

a) Initial rate (will be used in the “Method of Initial

Rates”)

b) midpoint

c) end

The rate approaches zero

as the number of reactant

molecules decreases =

Reaction Order and Rate Constants

We observe in chemical reactions that rates increase as

the reactant concentrations increase. The rate is found to

be proportional to the reactant concentrations raised to

some experimentally determined power -

General Rate Law: Rate = k [A]m [B]n

o k = rate constant

o m and n are the reaction orders with respect to reactants A and B

o (m + n ) = overall order

© 2014 W. W. Norton Co., Inc.

Overall Order

The sum of the exponents for each reactant in the Rate Law.

rate = k[A] 1st order in A, 1st order overall

rate = k[A][B] 1st order in A and B, 2nd order overall

rate = k[A]2[B] 2nd order in A, 1st order in B, 3rd order overall

Systematically varying the concentrations

of each reactant, e.g., the exponent n -

Hold the concentration of one reactant while doubling,

tripling, etc the other concentration of the other reactant:

n: [NO] is held constant. [O2] doubles and the

rate doubles. Therefore n = 1

rate = k [NO]m [O2]n

© 2014 W. W. Norton Co., Inc.

Systematically varying the concentrations

of each reactant, e.g., the exponent m -

rate = k [NO]m [O2]n

m: [O2] is held constant. [NO] doubles and

the rate quadruples. Therefore m = 2

2 NO(g) + O2(g) → 2 NO2(g)

the experiments, e.g. experiment #1 -

Experimentally the rate = k [F2][ClO2]

Characteristics of Rate Laws

• Rate laws are always determined experimentally.

• Reaction order is always defined in terms of reactant

(not product) concentrations.

• The order of a reactant is not related to the

stoichiometric coefficient of the reactant in the balanced

chemical equation, e.g.

1

F2 (g) + 2 ClO2 (g) 2FClO2 (g)

1st Order Kinetics Example – HW # 69

The following reaction is known to be 1st order with

a rate constant k = 6.32 x 10-4 s-1. How much N2O5

remains in solution after 1 hr if [N2O5]o = 0.50 M?

2 N2O5 → 4 NO2 + O2

[N2O5]t = [N2O5]o exp −k1t

[N2O5]t = (0.50 M) exp[-(6.32 x 10-4 s-1)(3600 s)]

[N2O5]t = (0.50 M)(0.103)

[A]t = 0.052 M

Linearizing the 1st Order Equation

Linearization of an equation is a common method

used in science where useful information can be

obtained from the slope and intercept (e.g. measuring

the rate constant).

ln[A]t[A]o

= −k1t And since lnab

= ln (a) − ln (b)

ln [A]t − ln [A]o = −k1t

ln [A]t = −k1t + ln [A]o

y = m x + b

m = -𝑘1

b = ln [A]o

Sample Exercise 13.6: Distinguishing

between First and Second order reactions

Chlorine monoxide accumulates in the stratosphere above

Antarctica each winter and plays a key role in the formation of

the ozone hole above the South pole each spring. Eventually

ClO decomposes according to the reaction:

2 ClO(g) → Cl2(g) + O2(g)

The kinetics of this reaction were studied in a laboratory

experiment at 298 K, and the data are shown in Table

13.10(b). Determine the order of the reaction, the rate law,

and the value of the rate constant k.

Arrhenius Equation

• k = rate constant

• A is a “collisional frequency factor” , includes the probability of colliding with the correct orientation

• Ea = activation energy

• R = Ideal Gas Law constant = 8.314 J/mol K

• T = temperature (in kelvin)

All of these controlling factors are combined

together into the Arrhenius Equation…..

k = Ae−Ea/RT

© 2014 W. W. Norton Co., Inc.

Ea and A can be measured graphically using

linearization again….

k = Ae-Ea/RT

ln k = ln (A▪e-Ea/RT) and since ln (a▪b) = ln a + ln b

ln k = ln A + ln (e-Ea/RT)

Reaction Mechanisms

• Reaction Mechanism: A set of steps that describe

how a reaction occurs at the molecular level; must be

consistent with the rate law for the reaction

• Elementary Step: Molecular-level view of a single

process taking place in a chemical reaction

• Intermediate: Species produced in one step of a

reaction and consumed in a subsequent step

• Molecularity: The number of ions, atoms, or

molecules involved in an elementary step in a reaction

Molecularity of Elementary Steps

1 molecule = unimolecular

2 molecules = bimolecular

3 molecules = termolecular

2. The exponents in the rate expressions for

elementary steps are the same as the

stoichiometric coefficients in each

elementary step. The reason why can be

explained by returning to Sec. 13-3…..

1. termolecular (and higher) reactions are

improbable because it's difficult to have 3 or more

molecules colliding simultaneously with the

correct energy and orientation.

Why the rate is proportional to the product of

concentrations (Sec.13-3 revisited)

NO(g) + O3(g) → NO2(g) + O2(g) rate = k[NO][O3]

1 x 1 = 1 2 x 1 = 2 2 x 2 = 4 2 x 3 = 6 3 x 3 = 9

© 2014 W. W. Norton Co., Inc.

What if the rate law contains exponents?

2 NO(g) + O2(g) → 2 NO2(g) rate = k[NO]2[O2]

When holding O2 constant, doubling NO

should increase the rate by 22 = 4X;

tripling should increase by 32 = 9X, etc.

• The sum of the elementary steps must give the overall

balanced equation for the reaction.

• The rate-determining step is the slowest step in the

mechanism

• The rate law for the reaction is given by the slow step,

unless…

• There is a fast equilibrium step prior to the slow step, and so

a calculation has to be made starting with ratef = rater

Types of Catalysts

Homogeneous

Catalyst:• One in the same

phase as the

reactants

Heterogeneous

Catalyst:• One in a different

phase from the

reactants

Automobile Catalytic Converter

Catalyst = Pt-NiO, finely divided powder. Higher

surface area provides more sites for adsorption and

reaction

The heterogeneous catalyst provides a surface where

the reactants can be ADSORBED on an ACTIVE SITE -
