Chapter 6: Rates of Reaction
An important part of
studying chemical reactions
is to monitor the speed at
which they occur. Chemists
look at how quickly, or
slowly, reactions take place
and how these rates of
reaction are affected by
different factors.
The light produced by a firefly depends
on the speed of a particular chemical
reaction that occurs in its abdomen.

6.1 Chemical Reaction Rates
Chemical kinetics is the study of the rate at which
chemical reactions occur.
The term reaction rate, or rate of reaction refers to:
• the speed that a chemical reaction occurs at, or
• the change in amount of reactants consumed or
products formed over a specific time interval

Determining Reaction Rates
The reaction rate is often given in terms of the change in
concentration of a reactant or product per unit of time.
The change in concentration of
reactant A was monitored over time.

Determining Reaction Rates
The change in concentration of reactant or product
over time is often graphed.
For the reaction A → B, over time, the
concentration of A decreases, and the
concentration of B increases.

Average and Instantaneous Reaction Rates
Average rate of reaction:
• change in [reactant] or [product] over a given time
period (slope between two points)
Instantaneous rate of reaction:
• the rate of a reaction at a particular point in time
(slope of the tangent line)
Average rate of reaction
and instantaneous rate
of reaction can be
determined from a
graph of concentration
vs. time.

reactants or products.

6.2 Collision Theory and Factors
Affecting Rates of Reaction
According to collision theory, a chemical reaction occurs
when the reacting particles collide with one another.
Only a fraction of collisions between particles result in a
chemical reaction because certain criteria must be met.

UNIT 3 Chapter 6: Rates of Reaction
Effective Collision Criteria 1:
The Correct Orientation of Reactants
For a chemical reaction to occur, reactant molecules
must collide with the correct orientation relative to
each other (collision geometry).
TO PREVIOUS
SLIDE
Five of many possible ways that NO(g) can collide with NO3(g) are shown.
Only one has the correct collision geometry for reaction to occur.
Section 6.2
UNIT 3 Chapter 6: Rates of Reaction
Effective Collision Criteria 2:
Sufficient Activation Energy
For a chemical reaction, reactant molecules must also
collide with sufficient energy.
Activation energy, Ea, is the minimum amount of
collision energy required to initiate a chemical reaction.
Collision energy depends on the kinetic energy of the
colliding particles.
The shaded part of the MaxwellBoltzmann distribution curve
represents the fraction of particles that
have enough collision energy for a
reaction (ie the energy is ≥ Ea).

Representing the Progress of a
Chemical Reaction
From left to right on a potential energy curve for a reaction:
• potential energy increases as reactants become closer
• when collision energy is ≥ maximum potential energy,
reactants will transform to a transition state
• products then form (or reactants re-form if ineffective)

Activation Energy and Enthalpy
The Ea for a reaction cannot be predicted from ∆H.
• ∆H is determined only by the difference in potential
energy between reactants and products.
• Ea is determined by analyzing rates of reaction at
differing temperatures.
• Reactions with low Ea occur quickly. Reactions with
high Ea occur slowly.

Factors Affecting Reaction Rate
1. Nature of reactants
• reactions of ions tend to be faster than those of
molecules
2. Concentration
• a greater number of effective collisions are more
likely with a higher concentration of reactant
particles
3. Temperature
• with an increase in temperature, there are more
particles with sufficient energy needed for a reaction
(energy is ≥ Ea)

Factors Affecting Reaction Rate
4. Pressure
• for gaseous reactants, the number of collisions in a
certain time interval increases with increased pressure
5. Surface area
• a greater exposed surface area of solid reactant means
a greater chance of effective collisions
6. Presence of a catalyst
• a catalyst is a substance that increases a reaction rate
without being consumed by the reaction

UNIT 3 Chapter 6: Rates of Reaction
Section 6.2
A Catalyst Influences the Reaction Rate
A catalyst lowers the Ea of a reaction.
• this increases the fraction of reactants that have enough
kinetic energy to overcome the activation energy barrier
• a catalyzed reaction has the same reactants, products,
and enthalpy change as the uncatalyzed reaction
A catalyst decreases
both Ea(fwd) and Ea(rev).

Catalysts in Industry
A metal catalyst is used for industrial-scale production of
ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen.
Hydrogen and nitrogen molecules break apart when in contact with the
catalyst. These highly reactive species then recombine to form ammonia.
A catalyst (V2O5) is used for industrial-scale production
of sulfuric acid from sulfur.

Catalysts in Industry
The Ostwald process uses a platinum-rhodium catalyst
for the industrial production of nitric acid.
Many industries use biological catalysts, called
enzymes, which are most often proteins.
For example: the use of enzymes decreases the amount
of bleach (an environmental hazard) needed to whiten
fibres used in paper production.

6.3 Reaction Rates and
Reaction Mechanisms
Initial rate is the rate of a chemical reaction at time zero.
• products of the reaction are not present, so the reverse
reaction cannot occur
• it is a more accurate method for studying the
relationship between concentration of reactant and
reaction rate
Initial rate is found by
determining the slope of a
line tangent to the curve at
time zero.

Graphing Reaction Rate in Terms of
Concentration
To study the effects of concentration on reaction rate:
• different starting concentrations of reactant are used
• initial rates are calculated using the slopes of the tangent
lines from concentration vs time curves
• initial rates are plotted against starting
concentration
Initial rates are determined
(A) and these are plotted
against concentration (B).

First-order Reactions
The initial rate vs starting concentration graph on the
previous slide is a straight line.
• the equation of the line can be expressed as:
rate = k[A]
• This represents a first-order reaction
For reactions with more than one reactant (e.g. A and B):
• if experiments for each reactant produce straight lines,
the rate is “first order with respect to reactant A and first
order with respect to reactant B.”

Second-order Reactions
For chlorine dioxide in this reaction:
• the initial rate vs concentration curve is parabolic
• the reaction is proportional to the square of [ClO2]
• it is a second order reaction
with respect to this reactant
rate = k[A]2

The Rate Law
The rate law shows the relationship between reaction
rates and concentration of reactants for the overall
reaction.
rate = k[A]m[B]n

n: order of the reaction for reactant B

Reaction Mechanisms
A reaction mechanism is the series of elementary steps
that occur as reactants are converted to products.

from the decomposition of nitrogen dioxide:
It occurs in two elementary steps:

The Rate-determining Step
This reaction occurs in three elementary steps:
Step 2 is the rate-determining step:
• it is the slowest elementary step
• the overall rate of the reaction is dependent on this step
• the Ea for this step is higher than Ea for each of the other
steps

UNIT 3 Chapter 6: Rates of Reaction
A Proposed Reaction Mechanism
• Experiments show that this reaction is zero order with
respect to OH– (i.e. its rate does not depend on [OH–])
• This can be explained by a two-step mechanism
Step 2 is very fast and
depends on completion of
Step 1, not on the
concentration of OH–.
