Now
LETS
SEE
HOW
WE
DO
KINETICS!
AND,
LETS
LOOK
AT
THE
BASIC
RULES
AND
DEFINITIONS.
FOR
MOST
OF
THE
DISCUSSION,
WE
SHALL
CONCENTRATE
JUST
ON
FORWARD
REACTIONS.

Special point:
REACTION
RATES
ARE
ALWAYS
DEFINED
AS
POSITIVE.

Major
point!
To
get
the
reac1on
rate,
all
you
need
to
do
is
monitor
any
one
product
or
reactant.
Of
course,
if
you
monitor
more,
you
will
have
more
data.
Looking
at
reactant
and
product
helps
you
determine
if
there
is
a
love-lived
intermediate!

Units
of
k:
Let
the
rate
have
units
of
M/s
(Ms-1)
Thus,
must
have
the
units
M1-(n+m)s-1.
(Of
course,
we
could
use
other
concentra1on
units
and
1me
units
but
molarity
and
s-1
are
by
far
the
most
common.)

Example:
Rate
=
k
[A][B]2.
The
reac1on
is
rst
order
wrt
[A],
second
order
wrt
[B],
and
third
order
overall.

Second Order?
Half
Lives
Some1mes,
1me
is
easier
to
imagine
than
is
rate.
The
HALF
LIFE
of
a
reactant
is
the
1me
it
takes
for
half
of
it
to
disappear.
Half
lives
are
most
useful
with
rst-order
kine1cs
but
are
also
useful
for
other
orders.
Half-life
is
a
constant
ONLY
for
FIRST-ORDER
reac1ons.

Special
point
We
just
derived
the
equa1on
for
the
FIRST
HALF-LIFE
of
a
second-
order
reac1on.
The
half-life
DOUBLES
for
each
half-life
period.
The
general
formula
is
to
the
right

Catalysis
Deni1on
of
a
catalyst:
A
regular
(posi1ve)
catalyst
increases
k
at
a
given
temperature.
A
nega1ve
catalyst
(inhibitor)
decreases
k
at
a
given
temperature.
A
catalyst
can
be
an
extra
reagent
or
an
acid
or
base
or
one
of
the
products
of
a
reac1on.
Catalysts
act
Either
by
changing
the
ac1va1on
energy
OR
Altering
the
orienta1on
factor,
p.
Note
this:
A
catalyst
catalyzes
BOTH
the
forward
and
reverse
reac1on.
