3
Reactants What happens to the reactants in a reaction? If we measure the concentration of reactants as a reaction proceeds, what would the graph look like? Or How does the concentration vary with time? –Is it linear? –Exponential? –Random? Do all reactions only move forward? –Assume for now there is no reverse reaction –Or the reverse reaction proceeds so slowly, we are willing to ignore it Map graph
4
Products Where do the products come from? If we measure the concentration of the products from the first second the reaction starts, how would the concentration vary with time? Map graph
5
Rate of Change In the reaction A B How does the [A] vary with time? Or What is the rate of the reaction? Rate = [A] time2 – [A] time1 Time 2 – Time 1 [A] = the molarity of A Map
6
Rate of Change The symbol delta, , means “the change in” So the reaction rate can be written Rate = [A] t2 – [A] t1 or time 2 – time 1 Rate = [A] t graph
7
Average Rate of Change The concentration varies as time goes on. –Because we use up reactants We can calculate an average rate of product consumption – over a period of time. Rate is like velocity of a reaction. –the rate of change of meters vs rate of change of [A] –Instead of meters per second, it is concentration per second. –To calculate speed/velocity, divide the distance traveled by the time it took. Meters = m 2 – m 1 = m t 2 – t 1 t sec graph
8
Average Rate of Change What is the change in concentration? (how far did it go? If you are calculating speed) [A] @ time2 – [A] @time1= [A] How much time has elapsed? [A] @ time2 – [A] @time1= [A] t 2 – t 1 t graph
9
Instantaneous Rate An average rate describes what reaction rate over a time, but does not tell us the rate at any particular moment. The rate at any moment is the instantaneous rate
10
Instantaneous Rate If we take the average rate over a period of time and continuously make the time period smaller When the time period is infinitesimally small, you approach the instantaneous rate Graphically, it is the slope of the tangent line at the instant.Graphically –That’s why graphing programs have that tangent line function! Rates are important in bio, physics and chem. Map
11
(differential) Rate Law Expresses how rate depends on concentration. Rate = - [Reactant] = k [reactant] n t k is the rate constant –The bigger the k value, the faster the reaction –The smaller the k value, ….? n = the order of the reaction and must be determined experimentally. Map
12
Reaction Rates Reaction rates are considered positive Rate instantaneous = k instantaneous = - slope of tangent line Rate average = k average = - ([A] 2 - [A] 1 ) t 2 -t 1 So the rate constant, k, is always negative Rate = - [Product] = k [Product] n t –Assuming no reverse reaction!
13

14
2NO 2 2NO + O 2 Let’s consider the above reaction How can we measure the rate? –What data do we need? Measure the time Measure the concentration –We will take advantage of color in our lab –If we are measuring light, we are doing….. SPECTROSCOPY
15
Spectrometer Source Monochrometer, LED Or Filter Sample Detector The sample absorbs the light. The detector determines how much. Many frequencies of light One frequency Of light
16
Beer’s Law Beer’s law states that the amount of light absorbed depends on: –The material molar absorbtivity (physical property) –How much is there? molarity –And how big the sample holder The light spends more “time” in contact with a longer sample
17
Spectrometer Source Monochrometer, LED Or Filter Sample Detector The sample absorbs the light. The detector determines how much. Many frequencies of light One frequency Of light
18
Spectroscopy Assume the concentration is directly proportional to absorbance of light The more stuff there is that absorbs the light – the less light that goes through …. or –More light is absorbed Beer’s Law a = e l c = k M a = absorbtivity e = molar absorbtivity (physical property) l = length of light path c = molarity or the solution Molarity and absorbtivity Are directly proportional

20
Formation of Products 2NO 2 2NO + O 2 Rate of Consumption NO 2 = Rate Formation NO Rate = k[NO 2 ] = - k[NO] Because For every two NO 2 consumed two NO formed
21
Formation of Products 2NO 2 2NO + O 2 Rate of Consumption NO 2 = 2 x Rate Formation O 2 Rate = k[NO 2 ] = - k/2 [O 2 ] Because For every two NO 2 consumed one O 2 formed
22
Compare the Instantaneous Rates At any moment in time [NO 2 ] = - [NO] = 2 - [O 2 ] t t t Or k [NO 2 ] = - k [NO] = - k/2 [O 2 ] graph
23
Form of the Rate Law For aA + bB cC +dD Rate = k [A] n [B] m –Where k is the rate constant n = order of reactant A m = order of reactant B n and m must be determined experimentally n +m = order of the reaction
24
Experimental Order the order in the integrated rate law Rate = - [Reactant] = k [Reactant] n t n = 0, zero order n = 1, first order n = 2, second order Determine order
25
Order of Reaction A + B → C Rate = k[A] n [B] m (n + m) = order of the reaction = 1 unimolecular =2 bimolecular =3 trimolecular This means how many particles are involved in the rate determining step
26
Method of Initial Rates A series of experiments are run to determine the order of a reactant. The reaction rate at the beginning of the reaction and the concentration are measured These are evaluated to determine the order of each reactant and the overall reaction order
27
If you plot the concentration versus time of [N 2 O 5 ], you can determine the rate at 0.90M and 0.45M. What is the rate law for this reaction? Rate = k [N 2 O 5 ] n n = the order. It is determined experimentally.
28
2N 2 O 5(soln) 4NO 2(soln) + O 2(g) At 45 C, O 2 bubbles out of solution, so only the forward reaction occurs. Data [N 2 O 5 ]Rate ( mol/l s) 0.90M5.4 x 10 -4 0 45M2.7 x 10 -4 The concentration is halved, so the rate is halved
29
2N 2 O 5(soln) 4NO 2(soln) + O 2(g) Rate = k [N 2 O 5 ] n 5.4 x 10 -4 = k [0.90] n 2.7 x 10 -4 = k [0 45] n after algebra 2 =(2) n n = 1 which is determined by the experiment Rate = k [N 2 O 5 ] 1
30
Method of Initial Rates Measure the rate of reaction as close to t = 0 as you can get. This is the initial rate. Vary the concentration Compare the initial rates. Map

37
Review Method of initial rate In the form Rate = k[A] n [B] m –Where k is the rate constant – n, m = the order of the reactant The order is determined experimentally Rate law is important so we can gain an insight into the individual steps of the reaction
38
The Integrated Rate Law Expresses how concentrations depend on time Depends on the order of the reaction Remember Rate = k[A] n [B] m Order = n + m Integrated Rate law takes the form by “integrating” the rate function. (calculus used to determine) –The value of n and m change the order of the reaction –The form of the integrated rate depends on the value of n –You get a different equation for zero, first and second order equations. Map
39
Reaction Order Order of the reaction determines or affects our calculations. Zero order indicates the use of a catalyst or enzyme. The surface area of catalyst is the rate determining factor. First or second order is more typical (of college problems)
40
Integrated Law - Zero Order Rate = - [A] = k t Set up the differential equation d[A] = -kt Integral of 1 with respect to A is [A]
41
Integrated Rate Law – First Order Rate = [A] = k [A] n t If n = 1, this is a first order reaction. If we “integrate” this equation we get a new form. Ln[A] = -kt + ln[A 0 ] where A 0 is the initial concentration Map
42
Why? If Rate = - [A] = k [A] 1 t Then you set up the differential equation: d[A] = -kdt [A] Integral of 1/[A] with respect to [A] is the ln[A].
43
Integrated Rate Law ln[A] = -kt + ln[A] 0 The equation shows the [A] depends on time If you know k and A 0, you can calculate the concentration at any time. Is in the form y = mx +b Y = ln[A] m = -k b = ln[A] 0 Can be rewritten ln( [A] 0 /[A] ) = kt This equation is only good for first order reactions!
