CHEMICAL KINETICS
This is the area of chemistry concerned with the speeds, or rates, at which a
chemical reaction occurs and the path taken by the reaction.
time
The length of time it takes to bake chocolate chip cookies depends on the
rate at which baking soda (sodium bicarbonate or hydrogen carbonate)
decomposes at 177 oC.
or
During any chemical reaction, it has been found that the concentration of reactants
decreases at the same rate as the concentration of the product
increases. However,
the change in concentration per unit time is sometimes challenging to measure directly.
The COLLISION
explains this.

The inverse the time (1/t) yields the rate of the reaction.
HCl + Na2S2O3
The formation of a pale yellow (colloidal) precipitate of sulphur can be used to monitor the
progress of the reaction.

The rate of a chemical reaction is NOT affected by a change in volume of the reacting

When the particles collide, they do so with more energy, and so the number of
successful collisions increases. Hence, reaction rate is increased and viceversa.

TEMPERATURE
The presence of a solid catalyst (finely divided) provides a surface area over
which gas molecules react (contact catalyst), resulting in more collisions and
hence increase the reaction rate.
The gases must be dried (CaO) and purified before passing them over the
catalyst to prevent poisoning of the catalyst.

EFFECT OF CONCENTRATION
OF A CATALYST ON RATE
Catalysts NEVER produce more product - they just produce the same amount more quickly.

EVERYDAY CATALYST
Many catalysts are transition metals or their compounds.
For example:
Nickel is a catalyst in the production of margarine
(hydrogenation of vegetable oils).
Iron is a catalyst in the production of ammonia from
nitrogen and hydrogen (the Haber process).
Platinum is a catalyst in the catalytic
converters of car exhausts. It catalyzes the
conversion of carbon monoxide and
nitrogen oxide into the less polluting
carbon dioxide and nitrogen.

Light energy of a sufficiently high frequency can break some chemical bonds and so
speed up chemical reaction.
Examples of light sensitive reactions are:

GLOSSARY
activation energy - The amount of energy needed to start a
reaction (for bond breaking to occur).
catalyst - A substance that increases the rate of a chemical
reaction without being used up.
concentration - The number of molecules of a substance in a
given volume.
rate of reaction - The change in the concentration over a
certain period of time.
