rate of reaction
change in concentration of a substance in unit time mol dm-3 s-1
rate on graph
conc time graph gradient of tangent to curve
initial rate
rate at the start of the reaction where it is fastest
continuous rate experiments
find half lives if constant, 1st order is half lives rapidly increase then order is 2nd order
rate constant
k rate = k (conc) increases if we increase temperature
arrhenius constant
ln K = constant - Ea / RT Activation energy can be measured from gradient of lnK against 1/T graph so, Ea = - gradient x R (Gas constant) convert to kJ mol-1
ways to investigate rates of reaction
measure change in volume of gas measure change of mass
measure change in volume of gas
connect gas syringe to conical flask
slowest step
rate-determining step
