By the way: why the product?
elementary reaction A + B→ C
rate = k [A][B]
Why does rate depend on the product of
reactant concentrations?
Rate proportional to the number of collisions
of A and B
No. collisions = product of the number or particles
present
2×2 =4
3×2 =6
3×3=9
Lecture 33 - 5
Transition State If reactants come together with enough energy and the right
orientation, they combine to form a transition state (or activated complex).
This species is half-way between
the reactants and the products
but is not neither. Transition states are very unstable
(cannot be isolated).

Transition state in elementary steps
Ea1 > Ea2, therefore Ea1 is the slow step and Ea2 is the fast step.
Two transition states.

A catalyst increases the rate of a chemical reaction.
A catalyst is not consumed or changed in the overall process.
A catalyst provides an alternative reaction pathway of lower activation energy: more molecules have the minimum energy required for successful reaction and the reaction proceeds at a faster rate.
Catalysis
A + B C + Dk
Lecture 33 - 11
Catalysis
A catalyst speeds both the forward and reverse reaction, so does NOT affect the position of the equilibrium.
Does not change the equilibrium constant Keq = k1/k-1; even though k1 and k-1 may be much larger for the catalyzed reaction.
Does not change the G0 for the reaction.
A catalyst can be homogeneous (one phase with reactants and products) or heterogeneous (more than one).
Many catalysed reactions are zero-order.
A small quantity of catalyst affects the reaction rate for a large amount of reactant.
Lecture 33 - 12
Demo: Catalytic Decomposition of Hydrogen PeroxideManganese dioxide MnO2 is used to catalyse the decomposition of H2O2.
Prepare a slurry of MnO2 and NaOH, and add H2O2.
The rapid decomposition of H2O2 occurs with production of a grey foam:
2 H2O2 → 2 H2O + O2
Lecture 33 - 13
Let’s look at the decomposition of H2O2 again.

Catalysis
Lecture 33 - 14
Let’s closely examine the reaction of H2O2 with I–:
Rate law: rate = k[H2O2][I–].
Reaction occurs in two steps:
Step 1:H2O2 + I– H2O + IO–
Step 2: H2O2 + IO– H2O + O2(g) + I–
Note that I– regenerated during reaction and it does not appear in overall reaction.
I– acts as a homogeneous catalyst for H2O2 decomposition.
Homogeneous Catalysis
Lecture 33 - 15

Heterogeneous catalysis: most important industrially.
Catalytic converters:
First converter (A): RhCatalyses: 2 NO(g) N2(g) + O2(g)
Second converter (B):Pt/Pd Catalyses: 2 CO(g) + O2(g) 2

N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g)
Both substrates must bind to a free active site on the Fe surface before the reaction can proceed.
Increasing the concentration of either gas cannot increase the rate of reaction (i.e. rate independent of concentration).

Lecture 33 - 18
All enzymes are proteins, but not all proteins are enzymes.
Enzymes must possess catalytic activity.
The part of the enzyme tertiary structure that is responsible for the catalytic activity is known as the “active site”.

Each enzyme catalyses a single chemical reaction on a specific substrate molecule with high selectivity.

Lecture 33 - 20
Hexokinase alters its conformation to fit around the substrate molecule (D-glucose).
Enzyme and substrate adapt to accommodate one another.
“Enzymes are molecules that are complementary in structure to the transition states of the reactions they catalyze”.
Linus Pauling (1948)
Enzymatic Catalysis
Lecture 33 - 21
Enzymes can distinguish between enantiomers:
Only one of the enantiomers can be used as a substrate for this enzyme.

Enzymatic Catalysis
Lecture 33 - 23
The Arrhenius equation indicates that in order to increase the rate of a reaction:
The temperature must be increased,
Ea must be decreased, and/or
The reactants must be positioned so as to maximise the reaction efficiency.
Increasing the temperature is not an option for most biological reactions, so the remaining options are exploited by Nature.

In the atmosphere:
O2 + hn (<200 nm) O + O k1
O + O2 O3 assume very fast O3 + h n (210-300 nm) O2 + O k2
O3 + O 2 O2 k3
Kinetics very complicated since UV intensity will vary so much in time and place.
At equilibrium, rate of ozone creation and destruction will be the same: steady state approximation.
