    Rate of Reaction

    Definition
    • Rate of reaction?
    – The speed at which reactants are
    converted into products in a chemical
    reaction.
    – High or low based on time taken

    • Is it the rate same for all reaction?


    How to measure rate of reaction?
    • Volume of gas liberated
    • Precipitate
    • Mass
    • Colour
    • Temperature
    • Pressure
    Factors affecting the rate of
    reaction

    • Total surface of solid reactant


    • Concentration of reactant
    • Temperature of reactant
    • Pressure of gaseous reactant
    • Use of catalyst
    Collision theory
    • Particles have kinetic energy, continually
    moving all the time and collide with each
    other.
    • The collision that are successful in
    producing a chemical reaction are called
    effective collision
    Collision theory states that for a chemical
    reacion to occur, the particles must:
    1. Collide with each other
    2. Produced energy that is equal or higher
    than minimum energy called activation
    energy(????)
    3. Collide on the correct orientation
    Activation energy
    • Minimum energy that must overcome by
    the colliding particles of the reactant in
    order for reaction to occur.
    Effect of surface area
    • The smaller the size of solid particles the
    higher the rate of reaction…why?
    • The smaller the size of the particles, the
    greater the total surface area exposed for
    reaction…
    • For details,let see the collision theory..
    • The smaller the size of solid particles, the
    larger the total surface area exposed for
    collision.
    • The frequency of effective collision
    between reacting particles will increase.
    • As result, the rate of reaction increase.
    Effect of concentration and
    pressure
    • An increase in concentration/pressure of the
    reactant will increase in the rate of reaction
    • Suppose that at any one time 1 in a million
    particles have enough energy to equal or
    exceed the activation energy. If you had
    100 million particles, 100 of them would
    react.
    • If you had 200 million particles in the same
    volume, 200 of them would now react. The
    rate of reaction has doubled by doubling
    the concentration.
    Collision theory…
    • When the concentration of reactant ↑,
    – No of particles ↑
    – No of collision between particles ↑
    – Frequency of effective collision ↑
    – Rate of reaction ↑
    • Similarly when the pressure of reactants
    increases.
    Effect of temperature
    • If the temperature of the reactant is increased,
    the rate of reaction also increases.
    • Why??
    Collision theory
    • Increase temperature will increase the
    kinetic energy of reacting particles.
    • The particles move faster
    • No of collision between particles ↑
    • Frequency of collision ↑
    • The energy produced from collisions are
    higher than activation energy
    • Rate of reaction ↑
    Effect of catalyst
    • The use of catalyst can speed up a
    reaction….how??

    • The presence of catalyst allows the


    reaction to take place through a new path
    which requires a lower activation energy
    • Activation energy become ↓
    • More colliding particles are able to achieve the lower
    activation energy
    • Frequency of effective collision ↑
    • Rate of reaction ↑
